The AP reports that the driver of the anti-abortion/pro-life truck featuring photos of aborted children won’t be charged with disorderly conduct:
LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. (AP) — A suburban Atlanta prosecutor has dropped a disorderly conduct charge against an anti-abortion activist who was arrested for driving a truck emblazoned with images of aborted fetuses.
Gwinnett County Solicitor Rosanna Szabo said the display of the images, “as shocking and offensive as they are,” didn’t violate the law.
Police had arrested Robert Dean Roethlisberger Jr., 44, of Missouri near the Mall of Georgia on the day after Thanksgiving, when he refused to remove images on a “Truth Truck” owned by Operation Rescue, an anti-abortion group. Police, who said the images violated the law because they were “obscene and vulgar,” also impounded the truck and removed the banners.
If the actual images were some kind of pornography, then of course it would be illegal. But the display of something that is LEGAL and still DISGUSTING and evil shows that the problem is with the actual act, not with showing how it’s legal and yet disgusting. Even as pro-abortion writer Naomi Wolf said, these images are, after all, the truth.
Here’s a photo of the truck in question abortion_truck.jpg WARNING: has photos of abortion on it.
