PROVIDENCE, RI, January 30, 2012, (LifeSiteNews.com) – Demonstrators from the Occupy Wall Street movement threw condoms on Catholic schoolgirls, refused to allow a Catholic priest to give a closing prayer, and shouted down a pro-life speaker at a Rhode Island right to life rally on Thursday, according to its organizer. The event marked the third time protesters associated with the movement have disrupted a pro-life meeting in a week.


The pro-life organization’s executive director, Barth E. Bracy, told LifeSiteNews.com that, near the end of the rally, the Occupiers “strategically fanned out with military precision.”


That’s when they “started showering condoms down on some of the girls from a Catholic high school.”


They gathered around speakers at the podium, shouting them down or otherwise jostling them and members of the audience.

    Sad, it's definitely possible to protest the despicable actions of the lifers in a civilized manner.

    That whole concept of freedom is lost on them - only they are free to destroy, harass, and subjugate others --- hmm sounds faintly like dictators to me.

    You're not a big fan of free speech, are you?
  • gregory... Rusty S... 2012/01/31 16:07:33

    Oh I am, I am against hate speech though because we need to protect our free society from those who wish to destroy it.

    So if it were within your power, you would outlaw hate speech?
  • gregory... Rusty S... 2012/01/31 16:22:06

    yes, I would have laws banning hate speech similar to those in england.

  • gregory... Rusty S... 2012/01/31 16:32:49

    The same way it's determined in england, saying anything hateful about or towards a minority or is anyway promoting the harm of a minorities rights to life, liberty, and property. Such as the case when england made it illegal to read from the bible in public because it offended homosexuals. It's called a breech of peace.

    Your right...theu jsut oppressed and imprisoned anyone who went against England Common law. Your hypocrisy is showing with every post you add to this. Just becuase you dont agree with it does not make it hate speech. I dotn agree with any thing that lunatic Phelps and his westboro lunnies say or do....but I will fight till the death to defend their right to do it.

    why do you think they should have that right? In Europe they would be rounded up and given 2-5 years in prison or a harsh fine for saying what they say and depending on the country and most of Europe acknowledges free speech.

    Europe is collapsing due to our bad influence for one thing and for another isn't dogmatic loyalty to anything even America bad if taken too far?

    No, Europe is collapsing due to their terrible economy and entitlement mentality. the Euro is destined to implode and that would be no ones fault but the Europeans. Europe needs the dollar to survive more and more each day.

    Right to Lifers ARE in the minority as long as Roe v. Wade is lawful. So, your argument supports our belief that throwing condoms on (presumably) innocent Catholic H. S. girls is promoting the harm of a minority's right to liberty. Now, what's your argument going to be changed to be? Isn't that how it works with the Liberal lifestyle - piss and moan about something until it is proven to, actually, be about you, then fight a different fight and hope that we forget that you stepped on your tongue?

    The neo nazis are a minority too but I see no reason why they should be defended and in most of europe it is illegal for publicly showing hatred towards people and their as liberal as you can get.
  • Dark Kn... gregory... 2012/01/31 16:51:09
    Dark Knight
    The neo-nazis are in favor of breaking the law, just as the Liberal condom throwers are (assault, battery, and as you helped us realize - violation of one's civil right to liberty - thanks for that). No one, on the platform of pro-life was breaking any law.

    In other words, people like you get to determine what speech is acceptable and what speech is criminal.

    That is not free speech.

    Our speech is either free or it is not..

    Shouldn't the real question here be, why are you living here and not Europe?

    Our ancestors left Europe for a reason, if you're not happy, you should go back.

    The fact that you even ask that question only goes to show that you will never understand freedom and independence.

    Excellent question! Seems if someone feels that things are so much better in Europe than in the United States they would move to Europe.
