It's time for another Ask Asher thread

[Asher]

They have a right to their mass as well. Your rights don't abrogate their rights. If you sincerely believe in free speech, you'd make your point and then leave.

Funny. She's been outside those clinics for over 10 years. Why hasn't she left yet, she's made her point.

They can continue having their mass. They can just ignore my protest, right? Just like the people in the clinic can just ignore Mary Wagner, right?

[Ben Kenobi]

Thank you for admitting that people have a right to not be harassed while trying to get a medical procedure.

They perform abortions in the street where you are from? Man, that's disgusting.

[rah]

If I make a bomb joke at an US airport, I can be arrested.
If I scream fire in a theater in the US, I can be arrested.
Free speech has limits.

Learn to read... Asher already pointed out that Mary Wagner was inside the abortion clinic, refusing to leave.

Dude, SHE WAS ARRESTED INSIDE AN ABORTION CLINIC.

[Ben Kenobi]

She hasn't made her point. The law is still there. The law needs to be abrogated as an unconstitutional violation of our charter right to freedom of expression.

They can continue having their mass. They can just ignore my protest, right? Just like the people in the clinic can just ignore Mary Wagner, right?

Sure, go right ahead and do that, Asher.

How does that justify arresting her for being on the steps?

[rah]

Because she was breaking the law. Willingly.

That's true, because doing either will likely result in injury or the serious threat of injury to other people.

So what about this example? How do either apply to protesting peacefully outside of a clinic?

Do I have a right to stand on the steps of a Catholic church harass people as they enter the building because I think protecting pedophiles is wrong?

[Ben Kenobi]

Because she was breaking the law. Willingly.

The bubble zone law? The bubble zone law violates her Charter right to freedom of expression. So she was upholding the law by breaking an unconstitutional law.

Sure. Have at it.

Mental damage to a woman can be much worse then physical damage.
But just because the the woman doesn't agree with you, you find it acceptable to inflict mental torment with a chance of doing lasting damage. Let god judge and just stfu.


And having people shout murderer while you're having an abortion is very likely to cause mental stress. But I guess you don't care about that. What a douche.

I think the protesters should start targeting Catholic Churches since Catholics kill more babies than any other religion. They kill more babies a year in the US than the population of Miami. This cult needs to be wiped out before they kill all the babies. No other religion harbors so many murderes.
