Why did they get arrested? Look at those signs, those pictures. Those pictures are offensive, and are enough to make me throw up. Thank god I wasn't driving by. You can speak your mind without showing absolutely offensive and disgusting photos. It isn't needed, at all.

leg irons?? seriously? Becaues these are dangerous criminals protecting babies?

[zivjax]

Cops are just thugs.

Gosh I can't help noticing his smiling (and clearly so) at 1:02 when he says talks of these "sexually intrusive searches"... what a sicko

@MildEpiphany

Reeally?

I know Mr. Hickborn well enough, heck, I was one of the 2 minors arrested that day.

Mickael Hichborn is not a sicko!

Is there an update of the situation as of 2010? Where is their case at legally?

[AmericanLifeLeague]

@wolvee123 ANNAPOLIS, Maryland, March 7, 2011 (LifeSiteNews) – Today attorneys representing the pro-life group Defend Life, along with several participants in the group’s “Face the Truth” tour of 2008, announced the settlement of a lawsuit with Hartford County, Maryland over the arrest, jailing, and strip search of a number of pro-life advocates in August 2008.

"But I think that the displays that the Pro-lifers use to "shock" people are absolutely inappropriate for public use."

Obviously, you get more upset about pictures then the reality of abortion. The reason abortion is tolerated by society IS because people do NOT see the reality of abortion. Germans were okay with Jews being sent to camp until the allied forces forced them to SEE what was happening.

[JoshuaSkye]

Pictures utilized by anti-choicers are FAKE and have been proven so time and time again. You people are so gullible.

[eyem4freedom]

@JoshuaSkye uh.. gullible?? okay- tell me what a baby who is dismembered looks like? You are the ignorant one, sorry.

[lukeinferno]

Thank you rej2000 for your words of wisdom. I completely agree, society does tolerate it because of the candy coated facade pro-choice people place upon abortion. Most who agree with abortion don't see the horrific images which easily display the totality of the truth.

[Pheorach]

Excuse me.

But I think that the displays that the Pro-lifers use to "shock" people are absolutely inappropriate for public use.

If you want to protest, then do it without using horrible images. CHILDREN see those pictures, do you want to give them nightmares?

I agree that the officers were a bit unreasonable though.

But if pro-choicers got arrested for the same reason, and with the same illegitimacy, then you wouldn't say a thing.

Protest with pictures of children. Not mutilated fetuses.

[lukeinferno]

Excuse me, but I think that the displays of pro-choice signs are equally offensive. They teach children it's okay to kill an unborn child if you're inconvenienced by having an 'unplanned pregnancy' as they say.

So for your argument, that Children see these sad and disturbing images, I would much rather them have a nightmare instead of teaching them it's okay to kill the unborn. Also it's a free country still, as far as I know, and you can look away just like I can from pro-choice posters.

[Pheorach]

That's terrible.

You care so much about fetuses, and the UNborn...

but once they're born. You WANT them to have nightmares?

Educate, don't scare.

[eyem4freedom]

@Pheorach Kids watch so much violence on TV... kids are smart. They instantly know that abortion is WRONG. It doesn't harm them.
