Is it illegal to protest at hospitals?
I'm listening to Rhandi Rhodes and my stream is a little behind (pressing pause) and I just heard her say in 1984 it became illegal to protest at hospitals and hospice is a hospital. So can someone PLEASE tell me why these people at the hospice aren't arrested?!?!?!

4. Only the ones bringing water to "Teri"
The general disruptors are OK, they are "Christian" Republicans.

6. My guess would be
if the protesters stayed off the hospital property it would not be illegal. If they stepped onto the property they could be arrested for at least trespassing.

7. Very interesting question, and one for which I don't have an answer.
BUT, I do have another question. Does anyone know the numbers of the protestors of the Iraq war recently interms, compared to the numbers of protestors for this single (IMO) already deceased life? Just curious. I think that the numbers will probably be very compeling evidence for the RIGHT BIASED MEDIA COVERAGE AND THEIR COMPLETE HYPOCRISY!
