    Good ruling, RICO, like so much of what government does, was expanded to include all sorts of activities beyond the original scope - the Mafia. Of course, if I had my way, RICO would have been ruled unconstitutional.

      good ruling if they were protesting peacefully... but there are some pro-life wackos that post the names and addresses of women who get abortions and doctors so that people can harass and or commit violence. A clear distinction should be made between the peaceful protestors. Even though they are wrong and misguided, they still have the right to be morons in this country.
      To us, it is the BEAST.

        I'm still waiting for my answer on Justice Stevens . Did he see 'Operation Rescue' and didn't realize this would apply to all protests?

          I'm sure groups like NOW are now working one twisting the patriot act to call pro-life groups terrorists.

            At one time Stevens' nickname was "One-Eyed Jack", and he's still living up to it. Or maybe he just hates unanimous decisions.

              That happened many years ago, seriously. Nor do I disagree, since these groups spawn quite a bit of domestic terrorism, from stalkings to assasinations to fire bombings to death threats.

                  I assume this comes from his habit of plundering through the Caribbean.

                      Agreed Sava. I've confined my approval to peaceful prolife protesters. People who damage property are no longer protesting peacefully.

                        It comes from Stevens' habit of being the wildcard in many SC decisions. Some SC cases were described as being decided 5-3-1 or 6-2-1.

                          Well, they are terrorists. Pro-lifers' only aim in these protests is to cause terror among doctors and patients. Ergo, they are terrorists.

                          OTOH, protests of the union kind aim to improve the working conditions of the protesters. Those protestors aren't terrorists.

                          Duh.

                            That's a **** generalization, St leo.

                            I can easily say that protests by unions aim to cause terror among business leaders to get their aims done. And that pro-life groups aim to improve the rights of the unborn.

                            Neither are terrorists.

                              Pro-life groups have no jurisdiction over the rights of the unborn. If they want to demonstrate their lunacy, they should picket their city hall and not invade the private affairs of other people.

                                Never been called a terrorist before. It's kind of amusing to see stupidity displayed so openly. I rarely see such things outside of Tribune's threads.
