What would you do if people were yelling at someone walking into a medical clinic? What if it was a clinic that performed abortions, among other medical services?
As is typical for you, the video doesn’t show what you claim it shows. The video you linked shows a few still shots from what it claims is a viral video of a woman being attacked, but doesn’t actually show a woman being attacked, and definitely isn’t video of a woman being attacked. All that is seen in the video is people crowding around a table with fists raised, the stuff about someone being attacked and the existence of another video of someone being attacked is all just unsourced claims by the (obviously biased) maker of the video. If you’re using ‘attacked’ and ‘going after someone’ to mean ‘saying words the other person doesn’t like’, that’s another rather unusual use of language.
It’s interesting how there are two people who claim that the appropriate response to protesters shouting near you is ‘pepper spray’ or ‘shoot them’, if they really believed that and helped pass laws to make that legal it would certainly make the anti-abortion protests less one-sided. I doubt either one of them supports using chemical weapons and/or firearms against “pro-life” bullies, however.
I remember a scene in a Nestor Burma novel, I believe it was, where an old man (who evidently remembered the Franco-Prussian War) sitting in a café when WW1 was announced was beaten to death by the mob for not demonstrating sufficient pro-war enthusiasm.
It looks like both videos show people being yelled at by BLM protesters. I guess you could call that intimidation, not so much an “attack”.
Understand that I believe that people should have the right to protest without threatening non-participants in their protest. Personally, I approve of the BLM protests, but I don’t feel that getting in the faces of people on the sidelines and demanding compliance is a good thing to do.
There is something to be said about “reading the room”, though. Would raising a fist for a moment have honestly caused anybody any grief? It’s not as though they were asking anyone to have “BLM” tattooed on their forehead.
So you think it’s OK to force someone to make a gesture or otherwise “express support” for YOUR cause against their will, by behaving in a manner that meets the legal definition of assault by threatening physical force?
