Scheidler, a leader of some of the most violent anti-abortion protests in American history, is celebrating final victory in a civil suit that lasted 21 years, and went to the U.S. Supreme Court three separate times before it was dismissed on a technicality. Scheidler and his allies orchestrated violent clinic protests at the same time he was praising notorious criminals, visiting convicted clinic arsonists in prison, and personally pleading (unsuccessfully) for pardons from then-president Reagan. The better known Operation Rescue, was created by, and was a project of the Scheidler-led PLAN.
...
The Supreme Court did not dispute the factual findings of the federal jury that criminal acts had been committed -- only that they did not constitute extortion. Free speech and the First Amendment rights of protest were not an issue. Nevertheless, Scheidler, told the Associated Press:
"It's really about free speech."
Right, bombing a building, burning it down and harassing the employees of said building is all about free speech. How very Christian of you, little baby Jesus must be so proud of you sir. You are truly a role model to the religious zealot faction of this once great nation that is sadly growing in this country. You're the people who hijacked the Republican Party because you have some idiotic belief that this is a "Christian" nation.
Now I don't need to go into detail about how I wouldn't piss on this guy if he was on fire, but I do have a question. In this 9/11 world we now live in, are the acts he committed in the 80s forms of Terrorism? I would think so, if they were perpetrated by someone from the Nation of Islam the entire country would be out with pitchforks and torches.
