One pro-life pundit wrote, “If at first you don’t impede, try, try again.” Massachusetts passed a law forbidding pro-life sidewalk counselors from getting near women going in for abortions. The Supreme Court unanimously agreed it was a blatant violation of free speech. Two weeks later activist legislators and the governor passed another law pro-lifers say is worse than the first. The police have been given sole discretion in determining if a pro-lifer’s actions are disruptive. If so, they’re made to stand twenty-five feet away from the abortion mill for up to eight hours or until the mill closes. It’s like a teacher sending an unruly student to the corner. Local pro-lifers say the new law “invites state censorship.” Maybe Massachusetts just likes getting spanked by the nation’s highest court.
