Terminator Cracks Down on Abortion Protesters

California Catholic Daily:
State persecution of Chritians:
Governor signs law that could mean tougher stance by law enforcement against pro-lifers outside abortion centers. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has signed into law a bill extending for another five years the "Reproductive Rights Law Enforcement Act," which requires the state to gather statistics on crimes against abortion providers – and adds a provision that could result in police taking a more hostile approach against what Planned Parenthood calls "aggressive protesters." The bill extends from Jan. 1, 2009 to Jan. 1, 2014 the "sunset provision" of the existing law. In addition, it adds a requirement that law enforcement personnel receive additional training on how to recognize crimes against abortion clinics and abortion providers, with the goal of less mediation and more arrests.
