Anti-choice trespasser not arrested- Clinic manager who cussed at him arrested?
Edited on Fri Jul-20-07 01:11 PM by havocmom
:wtf:

Clinic manager who used blue language on clinic property when trespasser was NOT arrested, is, herself, arrested! Same clinic where one person killed and another permanently disabled by a bomb detonated by Eric Robert Rudolph (NOT an Islamic terrorist) a while back.

At least that's what clinic staff say happened on Tuesday, July 17, to Gloria Gray, director of the Western Alabama Women's Center, when she confronted antiabortion protester David Lackey in the clinic parking lot, and defied a policeman's order to go back inside the clinic. Rachel Joy Larris at Real Women, Real Voices has the poop, including an exclusive interview with Lorrie Foss-McGaha, a registered nurse at the Western Alabama Women's Center who gives her first-person account of Gray's arrest. (Full disclosure: Larris is my colleague at the National Women's Editorial Forum, where I serve as research director.)

The protest at the Tuscaloosa clinic came as a bit of a surprise, since the group's permit for a public gathering was issued for the following day, July 18. Less surprising was the group's protest, announced earlier, in front of the New Woman All Women clinic in Birmingham -- the clinic where Eric Robert Rudolph killed one person and seriously injured (and permanently disabled) another when he detonated a bomb spiked with nails outside the clinic.


So, if you are on property you manage, you have no right to free speech. But law breaking creep can skate?

I want my country back!

6. got it, thanks, A flood of old memories made me forgetful.
The news report stirred up memories of going nose to nose with those sorts of creeps while we stood, shoulder to shoulder 'manning the line' at Planned Parenthood Clinics eons ago. Not thinking clearly about details of how to post.

Man, those crazed eyes, in our faces, trying to intimidate us... yeah, great bonding events for me and my then teen-aged daughter.... Those creeps came at us with cameras and video equipment as we stood at the property boundaries. The clinic manager there told us we could come inside if we didn't relish our pics being plastered on church bulletin boards, probably with cross-hairs drawn over our faces.

No one left their post.

When the creeps yelled obscenities at women coming into the clinic for health care, we sang loudly: Amazing Grace. You shoulda seen their heads spin!

They would pull a demonstration from time to time, but we always knew what day and which clinic location. Wonder if they ever found those church-going patriot moles of ours ;)
