Was just reading up on the supreme court, John Roberts to be exact. Came across this and started thinking would people protesting abortiion bomb clinics risking killing another human possibly pregnant? Seems like they were trying to deter protesters more than patients. Kinda like tje halocaust, pmsying the victim for protection with the benifit no protesters would want to go.
NARAL airs, then pulls, controversial advertisementOn August 10, 2005, NARAL Pro-Choice America, an advocate for legal abortion, aired controversial advertisements featuring Emily Lyons,[16] an abortion clinic director who was injured in the Eric Rudolph clinic bombing in 1998. The ad alleged that
Supreme Court nominee John Roberts filed court briefs supporting violent fringe groups and a convicted clinic bomber… America can't afford a justice whose ideology leads him to excuse violence against other Americans.
The ads ran only in Maine and Rhode Island, the home states of moderate Republican Senators Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins and Lincoln Chafee.
The brief, which was filed almost seven years before the bombing of Lyons' clinic and which dealt with obstructing access to clinics, not bombings,[17] argued that while abortion protesters from Operation Rescue could not be prosecuted under the 1871 Federal Ku Klux Klan Act for discrimination, they had violated state law by trespassing. Ultimately, the Supreme Court agreed, ruling 6 to 3 in Bray v. Alexandria Women's Health Clinic that opposition to abortion did not constitute discrimination against women "as is evident from the fact that men and women are on both sides of the issue, just as men and women are on both sides of petitioners' unlawful demonstrations."
