[QUOTE="JoeRatz16"]All he did was show that he was prepared to defend himself, as is his Constitutional right. Doctors who preform abortions have been subject to violence you know. Maybe, but then why did the police arrest him? Plus the people praying at the vigil were peaceful, they weren't any threat to him.In related news:
"CHARLESTON - For the past 11 days, anti-abortion demonstrators have gathered at the Charleston Women's Medical Center in West Ashley as part of the annual "40 Days for Life" movement against abortion, each of them signing a "statement of peace" before participating.
Police say the protest met a threat Saturday morning when an out-of-state abortion doctor flashed a gun at them.
Police arrested Gary Boyle, 62, a Blountville, Tenn., physician, on charges of pointing a firearm.
Boyle drove into the parking lot of the clinic on Ashley River Road near Fuseler Road at around 8:30 a.m. When three protesters, including a 17-year-old boy, approached him, Boyle brandished a black handgun loaded with 15 rounds, according to a police report.
Boyle then stepped out of his SUV and walked into the clinic without further incident, the report says. One of the three protesters, 50-year-old John Karafa, called 911."
I wonder if this incident caused him to lose his medical license?

Joe/Whip, I'm not going to do the "how many angels can dance on the head of a needle game." It's Friday, and I'm about an hour away from wandering off and playing Persona 4 Golden for the night. You know damn well that you're trying to spin a series of absurdities. Not playing. nocoolnamejimHmm. I do feel that your paraphrases misrepresent what I actually said. Anyways when I was talking about the not knowing how the incident went down, I meant the incident with the choir, not that I didn't know if Fecteau sprayed the other person. I don't think Fecteau brought the holy water with her intending to spray a person, I think she intended to spray the facility.

[QUOTE="JoeRatz16"]I did refer to it as "tasteless" and as something that 40 Days for Life wouldn't do, David Bereit and Shawn Carney run a pretty clean operation and seem like nice fellas.[QUOTE="nocoolnamejim"] I think you're missing the broader point that bringing in a Children's Choir to sing "Happy Birthday Dead Baby" is kind of tasteless regardless of circumstances.nocoolnamejim
We don't know if Fecteau "spritzed" anyone with holy water, she said it was an accident that she was spraying the air to get rid of smoke from a pro-choicer's "sage smudge" whatever that is (is it like an incense that is burned)? As for the Children's choir, it does seem somewhat of a tasteless thing, though the article doesn't give much information about the incident and what information they do give is only from one source: what Watters and the other unnamed "pro-choicers" said, so we don't have the perspective of the pro-lifers. It is a quite unfortunate coincidence though with baby that diedin utero (I am sure that the pro-lifers would sympathize with that family if they found that out), though maybe that is one reason why it is best for people in that situation to go to somewhere other than an abortion clinic to have the dead baby removed. Anyway my guess is that the "children's choir" people were small-time, local groups. It does not strike me as sometime that a group such as 40 Days for Life would do. YouJoe...evasions are lie's ugly little sister. Morality, true morality, doesn't do half-truths and evasions. Let's count them.

JoeRatz16So she happened to be carrying holy water to an abortion clinic in the event she needed to freshen the air and she was totally out of febreeze? Please.

JoeRatz16"If this alleged incident happened, and we have no true conclusive evidence that it did...other than ALABAMA police arresting the individual in question...then that's totally not cool bro."
Anyway my guess is that the "children's choir" people were small-time, local groups. It does not strike me as sometime that a group such as 40 Days for Life would do. JoeRatz16Nothing to see here. Move along. Who did Alabama police arrest, Fecteau? I was talking about the incident with the choir that I don't know what happened because the only source given for that story is Wat(t)ers.
[QUOTE="JoeRatz16"]They understand the difference, they just didn't know that the woman's baby had already died. Ah. Regardless, I think that's horrible whatever the circumstances. Especially forcing KIDS to do it, that's sick. Kids might've come on their own volition, the article doesn't mention their age so it could've been teenagers, though it most likely had an age range.[QUOTE="XilePrincess"]Truly these people can't be dumb enough not to understand the difference between ABORTION and something that has already died.XilePrincess
Honestly, why do you think anybody here gives a sh*t?worlock77There may be some people who will find it useful, I'm not aiming at a large number.
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops have issued a call to prayer for a novena from tomorrow Jan 19 until Jan 27 coinciding with the National March for Life on Jan 25. The novena is intended to be "Nine Days of Prayer, Penance and Pilgrimage" for life, religious liberty and marriage.
In a fairly cool move, during the novena the Conference will be releasing daily messages via e-mail or text-messaging which people can sign up for by filling in their name and e-mail address on this webpage or by texting "9 Days" to the phone number 99000.
It should be interesting, I'm kind of curious to see what the texts/e-mails are.
[QUOTE="JoeRatz16"]I didn't defend anything, I disagreed with the children's choir thing if everything did go down that way. As for Fecteau maybe she sprayed the other person on purpose, maybe it was an accident, but the charitable thing to do is presume innocence unless their is sufficient evidence of guilt. Because we should assume that most people carry around holy water innocently in the event of the need to be used as an air freshener? She very well could have had it to spray the air around the abortion center as a way to ritually purify the air and remove the evil from the facility, somewhat similarly to the way that (or at least I think they do this, I'm not sure though) holy water and incense are used to purify a church that has been desecrated.[QUOTE="nocoolnamejim"] It's cute how when you know something is utterly indefensible but you feel you kind of have to defend it anyway you switch usernames. You know you don't HAVE to defend every single thing that your "side" does right? It's okay to just say, "That's some bullsh1t" on your own tribe once in a while.nocoolnamejim
