  • Another Win For Freedom.

    A good thing! Why do the leftists hate free speech so much?

    WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court has struck down a 35-foot protest-free zone outside abortion clinics in Massachusetts.

    The justices were unanimous Thursday that extending a buffer zone 35 feet from clinic entrances violates the First Amendment rights of protesters.

    Chief Justice John Roberts says authorities have less intrusive ways to deal with problems outside the clinics.

    Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

      No it is the leftists that instituted this law in the first place.

        I wonder if this will have any effect on the laws requiring funeral protestors (read: Westboro Baptist Church) from standing back so far.

        It is an unpopular opinion but I think laws requiring them to stay back something like 300 feet are blatantly unconstitutional.

          Never mind, apparently the problem with the Massachusetts law was that it wasn't written to be content neutral.

            It was also the Americans who instituted this law in the first place. Are you against America?
