It depends upon who has the Presidency. If Gore were in power, we would have a stacked liberal Supreme Court, and this decision would have been split in favor of Rico actions against anti-abortion protesters. What should have alarmed people is that any judge in this land had ever upheld using RICO against protesters, yet they did!This was an 8-0 decision, with the opinion by (Clinton-appointed) Breyer. The decision it reversed was by the largely conservative 7th Circuit, and was written by a Reagan-appointed circuit judge. This was not your typical liberal-conservative issue.

Yes, I'm aware that it was an 8-0 decision. And I still contend that if Gore were in power, it would have been upheld.
