ACLU Backs Free Speech for All — Except Pro-lifers

Then, in 1995, the national ACLU joined its New York affiliate in defending an injunction against anti-abortion protesters, arguing that the imposition of a moving buffer zone that kept protesters 15 feet away from people entering and leaving abortion clinics did not violate the First Amendment.

and in this one…

scroll down to; New Mexico State

“To us, this presented a clear-cut First Amendment issue because you had students exercising their legitimate right to distribute literature on campus,” said Peter Simonson, executor director of the ACLU of New Mexico. “This was a clear instance of students’ rights to free speech being shut down in an extremely aggressive manner.”

Questionable? They filed RICO suits on pro-life protesters. Dude, they’ve tried to revoke the Catholic Church’s tax exempt status because they are against abortion. And where did you come up with them representing both sides?

Hopefully Mr. Yanna will take a look at those links. I'm not hopeful though. He'd probably rather ignore the truth and continue to live with his pre-conceived notions. Thank you Lobo.

No it wouldn't, as history indicates. But keep telling yourself that - more fuel for the fire. “It would be a different story if they were pro-life demonstrators outside an abortion clinic though.”
