I totally agree. I am pro-life and these people do not represent the true pro-lifers. They tend to forget that people that are living deserve life as well and by posting the names of those doctors put them in harms way.

The 9th US Circuit Appeals Court ruled that a web site http://www.christiangallery.com/atrocity/ was a clear threat to the people portrayed on the site. http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20020516/ap_on_re_us/abort ion_appeal_4 I'm split on this. I look at the site, and it really disgusts me. The language used is far more extreme than any KKK type hate site I have seen, and I could see how it would incite some impressionable people to violence. However, on the other hand I'm a card carrying freedom of speech ACLU kinda guy. I have always felt that no matter how much something disgusts me or something is against my morals, the goverment shouldn't legislate anything to make me feel better. On the other hand, the Nuremburg Files really toes the line of hate speech, I don't believe I have ever felt more disgusted looking at a web site...and I've seen some extreme stuff out there. In the end, I guess I hope the Supreme Court overturns the appeals court ruling and free speech wins. I do think the entire web site does a huge disservice to the pro-life camp though. jon ______________________________________________________________________ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
