Yes, but.....

The law has to support the morality, at least to an extent. The pro-abort side won't be satisfied until they force us all, procedurally and politically, to be acquiescent participants in their agenda.

Three quick examples:

- Mayor Bloomberg in NYC is forcing all resident doctors in NYC hospitals to go through training to learn how to do abortions-no exceptions for conscience allowed. I'm sorry, that forced participation should be illegal.

- The Born-Alive Protection Acts that have passed in various states (and I think haven't passed Congress yet) are OPPOSED by the pro-aborts. The laws are necessary because hospitals and abortion clinics are letting born-alive infants who could clearly survive long-term die, which is infanticide. What's important to the pro-aborts is what the woman "wanted" (a dead baby, and to go on with her life as if nothing happened), not the fact that a live baby was born.

- Bankruptcy legislation passed by the House (of otherwise dubious merit, but that's another discussion) is being held up in the Senate because Chuckie Schumer and other radical pro-aborts are insisting on language that would prevent pro-life demonstrators who get related civil judgments against them from filing for bankruptcy. Just about everyone else who loses a civil case has bankruptcy and "starting over" as an option; singling out pro-life demonstrators is an obvious attempt to silence any efforts at persuading the public.

Separately, the pro-aborts insist that they be exempt from the results of any scientific studies indicating that women's physical and mental health may be harmed over the long haul by abortion (e.g., higher rates of breast cancer, derpression, etc.), or, in the case of abortion-only clinics, be spared the standard of cleanliness and sterility that any medical patient has a right to expect.

So you see, it's not enough for the pro-aborts that pro-lifers live and let live (ironic phrase). We have to be forced to do things we object to, be penalized professionally and financially if we don't, and ignore any scientific evidence or regulatory enforcement that might tend to reduce the number of abortions carried out.

GO SIMON

This seems more important than one might think - he faced up a hostile audience, and if you go by what the LA Weekly crowd says, it's the first time he's done it.

And he survived. If you consider the obvious hostility of the people being quoted, the fact that he fought them to the point of grudging respect augers well.
