"Violently assaulted" was what happened to civil rights and peace activists in the 60's. Having your head cracked open by a baton-wielding member of the CHP during an anti-war march is being violently assaulted. Having a fire hose and a German Shepard turned on you during a right-to-vote march is being violently assaulted.
Having a woman get in your face is NOT being "violently assaulted". You have to be one heck of a wimp to consider that "violent assault". The guy in the video got to learn how unhappy women can be when they see their rights as Americans being threatened. Welcome to the First Amendment.
The first amendment doesn't cover assault and destroying property.
"A pro-life activist came under attack on the street in Columbus, Ohio and it was all caught on camera. Victoria Duran, who confronted the anti-abortion group called “Created Equal,” later claimed she was defending herself and the protesters had no right to film her."
“I was leading our team of interns downtown creating conversation and I heard her yelling at Ian," Drayer said." "So I approached with my camera at a distance to document what was happening. After shouting in his face, she knocked over a sign, turned to me and slapped my hand with the camera away… she later shoved me into a stationary bus nearby.""
"Duran was eventually stopped by police and charged with assault."
"“The government has the obligation to protect speech and she doesn’t understand that the First Amendment doesn’t protect her rights to interfere with our right to free speech, so that’s the problem," director Mark Harrington said.""
"She is set to be arraigned next Wednesday, but Harrington said the group is willing to drop the charges if Duran just apologizes."
So much for "liberal tolerance," this is how 99% of feminists and non-pro life people act from my experience. You can see the full assault here: (warning-it does contain some language)
I'm a liberal and I don't tolerate fools. Who ever said we did is, well, a fool. Nobody "tolerates" everyone.
If you put yourself out there in public with controversial things you are inviting opposition to react. That is ALL this stuff is about. Why would anyone complain when they get the results they want? Fools.
She's a hater and she needs help. Make her attend diversity awareness counseling and anger management classes. Those defending her would also probably benefit from taking them as well.
At least she didn't kill her like the anti-abortion terrorists did Dr. David Gunn, Dr. John Britton, Shannon Lowney, Lee Ann Nichols, Robert Sanderson, Dr. Barnett Slepian, and Dr. George Tiller.
Where does this 'liberal tolerance' phrase come from?
