NOW Abortionists: "Throw Joe Out on the Street!"

Snail Mail ^ | 12/11/2001 | Thomas More Society

If you can help Joe in any way financially, please contribute what you can to the Thomas More Society, and pray for Joe and his family.

Whatever you think of abortion, the use of RICO to stifle dissent and debate is dangerous.

And maybe we should use it against liberal groups.

[sinkspur]

On what grounds and evidence was this man convicted?

Where can we find a summary of the case?

It appears that people who oppose abortion are running out of ways to do so peacefully. What do you suppose the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. would have resorted to had he and his supporters been persecuted in this way?

[pray4liberty]

And maybe we should use it against liberal groups.

Wouldn't that be fun, I can't think of anyone who deserves it more.

Here's another doozy at Thomas More Center

This lady was prosecuted for carrying a sign showing the gory remains of an abortion under a statute banning display of signs having pictures of "murder . . . personal violence . . . or the commission of any crime." This gross 1st Amendment violation has been stayed by a Federal court.

[pray4liberty]

But abortion, or the results of it, is legally not "murder . . . personal violence . . . or the commission of any crime." So that is what I would use for her defense. This is happening because of those pro-abortion Clinton judges that are stacking the deck. Also, people don't want to see the truth.

Of course, if it had been a gay porn video then it would have been "protected speech".

Right on! We are told that abortion isn't murder or violence. It is not a crime. Then how can one suppress a picture of an aborted fetus on the grounds that shows the results of "violence" or a "crime"????

Indeed the Liberals are just twisting the law to suit their purposes.

Soon expressing an opposition to abortion will be a "hate crime". The EU is about to make "racism" a crime. Then they'll probably make "sexism" a crime. Then they'll put anti-abortionists in jail because they are "sexist".

They always have, and they always will. Hopefully a case like this will bring things to a head and make up some minds about what abortion is and what it is not. The truth, however, would be glaring at them in the face. I wish I could sit on that jury.

The only thing the lib lawyers could come up with is "your eyes aren't seeing what you think they're seeing" b.s. which, hopefully, will make a decent jury mad.

[Marduk]

"Hopefully a case like this will bring things to a head and make up some minds about what abortion is and what it is not."

It won't. The press is controlled by liberals. So the press won't report on the legal cointradiction involved. As a result Joe Six Pack won't know. As a result it won't come to a head.

[Stefan Stackhouse]

Apparently the one choice they are not in favor of is the choice to speak out against abortion.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Whoa. It isn't judges at fault in the one I cited. The Federal court did the right thing there. It's an idiotic legislature. (I seem to have caused some confusion by introducing a second topic. Sorry!)

[sinkspur]

I am sympathetic with Mr. Scheidler, but the chances of the Supreme Court taking the case after the Appeals Court turned it down are very slim.

[pray4liberty]

What do you suppose the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. would have resorted to had he and his supporters been persecuted in this way?

My guess is if Rev. King were alive today, in his role as a Christian minister, he'd stage a sit-in and be hauled off in chains with the rest of us, after being accused of being a turncoat.

Funny how you never hear about those separation of church and state arguments from the libs when it comes to Rev. King. In fact they don't even refer to him as a Reverend anymore, just Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. .. anybody else notice that, or is it just me?

[pray4liberty]

I am sympathetic with Mr. Scheidler, but the chances of the Supreme Court taking the case after the Appeals Court turned it down are very slim.

Maybe, but we can help him anyway, if not financially, then through powerful prayers. This is David vs. Goliath, and God can do things men can't.

Give me a break. Look at the history of social reform and note the thousands of bombings and riots and injuries and arrests and murders (especially during the civil rights movement). Compare that to the pro-life movement, where only seven lives have been lost in 30 years, with only a tiny fraction of bombings and arsons and virtually no riots. To suggest that the pro-life movement has resorted to violence is preposterous. There were more people killed during a few days of rioting in the Rodney King matter in Los Angeles than have been killed in the entire history of the pro-life movement -- not only in this country, but worldwide.
