Wonder how much the "clinic" was paying this thug to provide "protection", (read: "intimidation of peacefull pro-life warriors").
The baby-killers are feeling the pressure from pro-life Americans, and the recent pro-life victories in this past election are increasing their paranoia.
They will get much nastier, and Americans sitting on the fence will see their true colors, just like at the Wellstone memorial/rally.

If the "puncher" only objected to the camera on principle and was not himself being filmed or had no wife/girlfriend being filmed, then I agree he should be charged with assault.

On the other hand, if the protester was filming the puncher and/or his wife/girlfriend then the protester pretty much got what he was asking for. While I may not agree with the path the couple is choosing, I realize it is an extremely emotional decision and if a protester wants to stick his face into that situation, he takes his chances.

I also don't agree with people who beat the crap out of flag burners, but I certainly would understand a Veteran letting his emotions get the better of him and taking a swing or two. Burning a flag is just as legal as getting an abortion, you tell me what the LEGAL difference is (the Courts hear LEGAL arguements, not moral or Biblical ones).

Videotaping people and getting in their face with Scripture may deter a few abortions, but in the long run, I believe it hurts the overall cause.

To use your Wellstone analogy in a different way, it "pumped up" the blindly partisan, but overall it turned off the hearts and minds of the rest so much they wouldn't remember anything else come Election Day.

Photos like the "baby in hand" along with educating people (in a non-confrontational way)work a lot better than shoving post abortion photos in peoples faces.

Like it or not, abortion on demand is currently the law of the land and the only way to change that is via the courts. The confrontational tactics of some, I believe hurt us on this front.

Flame Away!!!!!!!!

What you said is true and I am an eyewitness to at least three acts in the last 6 months.

"These people are desperate .. they are finally being exposed and it's from the public witness of the street prayer warriors and the new ability to bypass proabort media and get the news out over the internet!!
