The buffer zone in question. (Photo/PBS.org) |
Massachusetts finds itself Defendants in the Court;
Operation Rescue sued (they had outside support.)
Want to end a buffer zone; they claim it stifles speech.
Doesn't give their members 7 seconds more to preach.
Here in Massachusetts, where 2 clinics were attacked,
Women felt unsafe and so our Legislature backed
Efforts aimed at balancing our First Amendment rights
With a patient's - who's not feeling up for any fights.
Lawsuit has a public face... A granny with a cross.
Waits outside abortion clinics; gets her point across.
Claims she's counseled 80 women who have changed their minds...
No infringement there (or, so I hope that SCOTUS finds.)
