Although the legislation is directed against abortion opponents who resort to violence, some are concerned that the bill has the potential to severely limit freedom of speech rights. Pro-life groups have at times identified doctors who commit abortions so as to allow pro-life women the option of avoiding them as ob-gyn’s.

As far as the left is concerned, they are the only one's who have free speech.

I'm sure that the NY and LA Times will immediately post all the forbidden information and the ACLU will defend them in court.

Women must be prevented by force, from learning who performs abortion. And the Left claims all it wants is allow women "choice." We can see that in regards to abortion, what they really mean is you're allowed to obtain one but anything else is verboten. Its that "anything else" the abortion industry in California, with the help of the Democrats, seek to squash.

Heck the NYT can publish national securtiy secrets, so I doubt they can bury this information. But if it becomes law and eventually is honored by the SCOTUS, what does this say about our country . . . ? Protect our citizens and soldiers, not baby killers.

Have there been cases of abortions forcibly or fraudulently performed on "pro-life women"? If not, then the rationale behind the bill passes the smell test.

>>And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are going out<<

So will that make advertising of abortion services illegal?

"Free speech" is only for ultra-leftists and baby murderers. There is no First Amendment for anyone else, say the "activist" (Stalinist totalitarian) judges.

I have a theme song for planned parenthood and all people who perform abortions.

It is "The Money Rolls In" by Oscar Brand.

Part of the song goes like this:

My grandmum sells prophylactics.
She punctures the end with a pin.
My granddad does abortions.
Look how the money rolls in!

The Democrats want to take away the free choice of women to choose their ob/gyn's based on objective information?

Women seeking ob/gyn services can avoid abortion providers, based on the currently available information, and therefore decrease the market demand for people providing such services. With this bill, women will not be able to make an informed choice as easily.

Such a prior restraint looks constitutionally dubious.

Remember, you can easily set up a web site on a host outside of the US, in a jurisdiction that protects the free expression of political ideas. (A jurisdiction more free than than land of the used-to-be-free.)

just google "offshore web hosting anonymous"

But it's okay to publish the names and addresses of voters who sign petitions to make marriage an institution only between one man and one woman.

As a health care worker, I like this bill. The nutjobs who shoot abortion clinic workers and the idiots who support them have a broad definition of "abortuary employees". It wouldn't surprise me to find out that I was on one of their lists.

The bill specifies that the display of information would be prohibited if it intentionally incited a third person to cause “imminent great bodily harm” to the person identified, or if it would constitute a threat to the person, or place them in “objectively reasonable fear” for his or her safety.

I wonder how any of that is to be determined, and by what standard.

ahhh but does it also stop homsexuals in radical groups from publishing the names of those who sign Marriage Amendment petitions so they may be harrased by homosexuals. (ie if name appears then go to their house and chastise them for "homophobia")
