	Certainly not. Quote your sorurce for this relavation.

	That's a good policy. After all you wouldn't want to have that kind
of violence in any sort of a establishment would you? Planned Paranthood
probably has to run background checks to prevent bombings. Bombings that
well establish the level of hate that is espoused by some people.

	Quite correct, it has no relavance to a Womans right to choose. It
does have relavance to the protest group haveing a buffer zone put between
them and the clinic. It does have relavance with regards to the mental state
of those who would strip the rights of others.
