They must be a hell of a lot more important than a woman seeking a legal medical procedure.
Free Speech Zones (cage people up), at political events to keep the crazies away from the very important politico's of our day and age.
Buffer Zones, hundred of feet long and wide to keep the crazies away from very important judges of our day and age.
Must be nice to be able to feel safe going about your daily life free from whackos that hold guns, intimidate, put your safety at risk.
But hell, women don't deserve that protection. These free speechers, who have proven they will kill for their cause, first amendment right trumps a womens right to safety while seeking a legal medical procedure, and aren't deserving of the same rights politicians and judges afford themselves?
We have an extremely sick society here.
At first I was agnostic to this decision regarding buffer zones around abortion clinics, because I do believe in the right to protest and do not like free speech zones or buffer zones protecting politicians and judges from our free speech. I felt a bit hypocritical.
But fuck that shit right now! I'm not the hypocritical one. It's the judges and politicians who protect themselves from these same crazies and nutso's who WILL kill , that are the hypocrites. They can see their way clear and unambiguously when it's their life on the line, but us little lowly women exercising our rights, don't deserve that same unambiguous reasoning to protect us.
We have a very twisted and sick country on our hands right now.
The same thing goes with gun nutters rights to carry and intimidate. There are balances to be reached here with both issues.

Must be nice to be special. They have a pretty large buffer zone for themselves. I watched Rachel last night and I was so pissed off I could hardly sleep. She did a great job explaining this hypocrisy.
