"No Bubble Zone" Press Conference Pt. 1, Chicago, IL 10/07/09

On October 7, 2009, the Pro-Life Action League, in conjunction with a number of other Illinois pro-life groups, organized a protest and press conference at Chicago's City Hall to oppose a proposed "Bubble Zone" ordinance.

The Ordinance would make it illegal to come within 8 feet of someone entering a health facility. This would render nearly impossible the life-saving work of sidewalk counseling, one of the League's most important projects.

Speakers at the press conference included Joe Scheidler, national director of the Pro-Life Action League, Peter Breen, executive director of the Thomas More Society Pro-Life Law Center, Chicago, sidewalk counselors Shannon Bruckner, Norah Doherty and Kathy Mieding as well as Sirina, a woman who brought her pregnant daughter to get an abortion only to be saved from the pain of abortion by sidewalk counselors.

@tonykeywest07 I'm talking about the law? I have no idea what you are referencing.  Tell the radicals to stay away from peoples private lives and it is THEIR RIGHT on whether or not to get an abortion, not YOURS to choose for them.
