I got the Anti-Choice guy arrested!!!!
Some of you heard about the guy who grabbed my arm outside of a Planned Parenthood.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=4297176&mesg_id=4297176

Well, I went to file a report w/ PP and met with a police officer..

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=4300603&mesg_id=4300603

I wasn't sure what would happen ( and I'm going to be purposly vauge because of legal issues here, but I'll give you the bare bones).

The cop called me today and told me more about my little friend. Apparently, as I said before, he followed a woman from the clinic and she got scared and called 911. She didn't want to file charges (didn't want her name to come out, etc etc).

He also has been "a person of interest" in two other states. In one state, he hit a doctor. No charges were filed there because (and this is the best part) SHE kicked his ass. She maced him and then hit him with her bag, feet, hands and car keys. She broke his nose, and sent him to the hospital w/ a concussion!!!

:bounce: :bounce: I. Love. Her.

However, no charges were filed, because he would have countered sued (even though he hit first, she went to far, blah blah blah).

But not me. I'm didn't hit him. I was only walking by, trying to get to lunch, and the man touched me. He's in a holding cell in Boston Police HQ right now.

I am now treating my self to some ice cream.

23. No White Busheviks are EVER considered "terrorists"
EVER.

Now, if someone from Free America was to do something like that, well, white or otherwise the Empire would brand them a loathesome terrorist.

So, just forget about that. If we lived in a Free Country still, equal application (or even something approximating that) of The Law might be a possibility.

But we live in the Amerikan Empire, and thus, there is a 0% chance (same as you'd get in Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Commie Russia, or Nazi Germany) that a Friend of the Imperial Party will EVER be declared a terrorist, even though his hands be covered in blood.

If one looks at the Bushevik McVeigh, one can see the truth of the matter.

108. Right, please see story on guy caught trying to board plane with bomb
"An Oklahoma man was taken into custody after he tried to carry a bomb on board an airplane on Wednesday in Oklahoma City, an
FBI spokesman said.
ADVERTISEMENT

Charles Alfred Dreyling Jr., 24, was detained on Wednesday morning after a security screener using an X-ray machine saw the device in his luggage as he tried to board a flight to Philadelphia at Will Rogers Airport in Oklahoma City.

"Although the investigation is in its initial stages we have found no apparent connection to any type of terrorist activity or group," FBI spokesman Gary Johnson said."

I remember your post from yesterday. I have no idea if this guy is a whacko, but I do know that if he isn't stopped or dissuaded from his present course, further violence is inevitable.

He doesn't need to be locked up for life or anything (yet), but he definitely needs some redirection if he is not to end up that way.

14. Way to go, Karen!
It's one thing to protest--that's a form of free speech. It's another to invade someone's personal space while protesting--that's a violation of anti-racketeering laws (not to mention the assault connotations). I'm glad the creeper freeper is in the hoosegow.

Thanks for making Boston streets safe for pedestrians! :patriot:

29. Most excellent. Thank you for taking this important legal action.


Matthew Donaldson, an independent visual artist from Auckland. “On this, the 60th anniversary of Hiroshima's bombing, my grief for all of those murdered and yet to be murdered by America's weapons - of mass destruction or otherwise - overwhelms me” said Matt.

It overwhelms me, as well, Mathew.


Peace.

www.missionnotaccomplished.us - How ever long it takes, the day must come when tens of millions of caring individuals peacefully but persistently defy the dictator, deny the corporatists their cash flow, and halt the evil being done in Iraq and in all the other places the Bu$h neoconster regime is destroying civilization and the environment in the name of "America."

Sometimes they don't bother with "minor" stuff like this and the jerk knows that and will continue to harass people because of it. Good on you, good on the cops, and good on the doc that kicked this guy's ass! That's awesome!

31. This is
the pro-life's movement gone awry. They should NOT be so aggressive. I think some of these guys have gotten out of hand. Maybe it's time they all decide to give it up and stop protesting outside Planned Parenthoods.

54. Hi Babboonbush
Unfortunately, many of these people have been aggressive for way too many years, and they keep skirting the law. Fortunately, Karen lives in an enlightened state where that kind of assault is not tolerated.

In college, I lived near the Planned Parenthood and Preterm clinics, and the tactics of these people have not changed at all. I lived right near Preterm when John Salvi murdered Lee Ann Nichols and wounded two others. I will never forget that day, nor will I forget the response on the part of the anti-abortion movement.

38. Thank you, all of you.
From what I can tell, this guy picks on women only. Me, the girl leaving, the FEMALE doctor...

If abortion was illegal, he'd be protesting women being allowed to vote, or drive or something.

52. The next step?
He goes before a judge, gets bail, and then has to either plead guilty (it's a misdemenor) or go to court. If he goes to court, he can't possibly win. The laws in Mass are clear: what he did was battery.

a few points:

1- I wasn't going into the clinic, counter protesting, or in any way associated with the clinic.

2- The security guard is a witness- he has seen THIS guy before.

3- The whole thing is on video. (PP has them everywhere).

4- this is a pattern for him.

47. Can you get him charged as a sexual predator....
Then he'd have to register everywhere he went and wear one of those GPS ankle bracelets for eternity. Don't see any difference between what he did to you and what other perverts do.

62. Thank you SOOO much! Can you imagine if you were....
actually there for Planned Parenthood services, perhaps even an abortion and this happened to you? I wonder if the woman who was followed home had some kind of abortion counseling or services and didn't file charges because she didn't want her name getting out and/or just dealing with enough mentally that she didn't have the resources to follow through with pressing charges.

At any rate, I see you as taking on the fight for all women who have been harrassed by these freaks when seeking out services they have every human right to have access to but don't have the capacity, for whatever reason, to file charges for antics like these. I commend you!

67. Your courage is admirable. But since you live in Massachusetts...
which methodically denies its citizens even the most basic rights of self defense, you will have to be very very careful. I speak from ugly experience when I say the Christofascist fanatics are every bit as malevolently dangerous as the Ku Klux Klan. And like the KKK, the Christofascists often have friends in high places -- that is how they get unlisted telephone numbers, safe-house addresses etc. But in Massachusetts, the authorities render you especially vulnerable by allowing you neither gun nor knife nor even the old street-corner standby of a bar of soap in a sock. At the very least I'd suggest getting a large, intelligent, capable dog -- a Rottweiler, a German shepherd, an Alaskan Malemute, a Rottweiler/Malemute cross, etc. -- though even before getting a dog (given your state's infinite hostility to even the most elemental forms of self-defense), I'd consult a lawyer first: Massachusetts is so opposed to the individual right of self-defense, it may be the one state in which -- if your dog bites an assailant -- you go to jail. Meanwhile, go NOWHERE alone, or if that is not possible, make certain someone always knows where you are, and arrange to check in with friends several times a day to confirm you are okay. (Sorry if this seems alarming; the police SHOULD have told you all this but often don't. I would also immediately try to connect with a women's anti-domestic-violence group {perhaps through Planned Parenthood} which might be very helpful with additional information and advice.)

71. I'm glad you pursued it. Especially in light of his history.
I just hope he'll think twice before doing it again. Somehow I doubt he will. If not this time one of these times he will find himself in prison.

76. Thank You!
Sounds like he's way overdue for an official police record. Thanks for pressing charges - I don't know how long he'll be off the street here, but also the next time he tries something, his victim might be more inclined to press charges if she knows he's already been convicted once - that second conviction becomes much easier, and the punishment more severe.

Keep him locked up. While unborn babies can feel pain, so can grown adults who help make the society in which the unborn babies become born babies then children then adolescents then adults in!

90. I don't agree with getting him arrested and charged with assault
Maybe disorderly conduct or something minor, but not assault, which is a more serious crime.

He's a political protester who got a little emotional - big deal.

That happens everyday with protesters - right, left and center.

You do what you think you should do - the law and the criminal injustice system gives you the power to do it.

But I just am so sick of this mentality society has that people (especially men) need to be thrown in jail for any little thing - this is why we have an ever expanding prison industrial complex, and all the associated problems.

:grr:

97. I disagree completely
If some angry stranger grabs me on the street, I want their ass in jail. Anyone uses force on me in any way, I want their ass in jail.

I'm guessing nobody in your family has ever been abducted and raped. If they had been, you'd likely not be so soft on attacks like this.
