“I don’t feel inclined to disturb a mayor.” "After reading this, neither do I. Free speech is one thing, harassment and abuse is something else."

Sorry you guys feel the way you do. I am grateful that others are willing to call an abortion doctor out for murdering babies. I guess we can't count on you for any of the big important stuff, huh? Don't want to disturb your tea and crossaint break.

Describe to me the goal of harassing someone at their home, for following them as they drive, for returning to the home, for harassing someone again at their home, all within a half hour period of time.

There is but one goal, not of free speech, but of intimidation, of coercing someone into following a set of actions to get relief from the intimidation. I absolutely believe that the words of pro-life activists should be protected, but in no way do I believe that anyone should be induced to listen to their words. Freedom of speech also means freedom from speech.

Would you support anti-war activists camping out in front of people’s homes across the country to shout down our soldiers? Their kids? How about illegal alien supporters camping out in front of Minutemen homes? Following them around in their cars?

This /is/ the big important stuff that we fight for each and every day.
