And please refer to what I previously posted.
No thanks, I will stick to my assessment that this guy is a dumb motherfvcker.
Did it warrant the feds getting involved and if so, did it warrant an armed response by multiple agents?
Beats me, I don't track prosecutions for such, and really don't care either way. See below for the answer to the second part. And an armed response? Are cops and federal agents ever not armed?
I think the Left has successfully overused the terrorist description of Pro-Life activists to the degree that ALL Pro-Lifers are considered terrorists (those that condemn rather than witness) to them.
To be fair, the activists that have been terrorists have been shockingly violent. And some activist leaders have had very close ties to those terrorists...or became terrorists themselves. There isn't as much of that lately, but you have to admit that for a while things got crazy around this issue.
BTW, laughing my ass off that our resident LINO is okay with this.
BTW, I'm laughing my ass off that an attorney lacks reading comprehension. My post makes no comment on the law, this prosecution, etc. I'm simply stating this guy is a dumb motherfvcker to bring his kid to something like this, and is an even dumber motherfvcker to then act indignant that someone would say something volatile to his kid at a volatile situation.
I'd say the same about the dumb motherfvckers over in Louisville that had their kids at the BLM stuff after the sun went down....you know the shitheads are going to start being shitheads when it gets dark, take your damn kids home. And yes, I saw kids there on the livestreams after dark. Super dumb, even dumber than this guy. Many people are dumb, especially when they feel strongly about something.
Do you want my opinion on the crime itself? Honestly, I don't care if someone has a little shoving match at the clinic protest. It's not right, but it isn't terrible. I understand why the FACE act was passed, and it is a good thing. As I noted above, shit got out of control back then. I'd chalk this up to, as someone else said, two assholes running into each other. I don't think what he did was done with intent to restrict access to the clinic. If I were the USAG, I wouldn't prosecute him.
It truly is unbelievable that he considers himself a libertarian...
It is truly unbelievable an attorney lacks reading comprehension. Even shitty attorneys should be decent readers.
I would say it is truly unbelievable that an intelligent, educated person as yourself thinks there is one form of libertarianism, but in reality even astute folks as yourself are largely ignorant of political and social theory. After all, we have been conditioned by schools and media to think an R is an R, a D is a D, a socialist is a socialist, etc. It really doesn't work that way.
I rarely cite Wikipedia, but damn if this isn't a decent list of the different branches of libertarianism. You would do well to check them out.

I am somewhere between classical liberalism and consequentialist libertarianism. "Hardcore" libertarianism, such as anarchists, are IMO naïve. Randians and true Objectivismists are full of shit, because Ayn Rand was largely full of shit.
Are they going to have their tubes tied or to get rid of their unborn baby?
In the Catholic Church (which is probably important, as we have somehow ended up with a Catholic majority SCOTUS that lets religion cloud its legal judgment), a mortal sin is a mortal sin. It cuts you off from the grace of God and requires excommunication. But not even getting an abortion is so bad that one cannot be forgiven and remission granted. So who is to say if we will not see protests against vasectomies? We already have one Justice (a Catholic, to boot!) that put it down on paper we should reconsider the right to contraception. Fvckin' weirdo.
You know, I really like Catholic church. By that, I mean Mass itself. I find it calming, as opposed to the Evangelical services that try to get you emotional, dancing or riled up. But the Catholic Church and its doctrine is weird, and way too complex.
This specific group/guy? Yeah, didn't think so.
You've seen one ballgame, you've seen them all. Sure, the scores might be different, but the rules are the same. It's not like this is some new conflict.
You would be wise to go back and re-read my post, actually comprehend it, and understand I think both sides act like morons. That's not the place to bring a kid.
