Petula Dvorak must not report to Fred Hiatt, otherwise I have no way to explain this excellent Washington Post piece on the ways that anti-choice protesters targeted the children and neighbors of an reproductive health clinic’s landlord:
The tactical decision to focus on a clinic’s landlord was a clever move, although Stave could handle it. He’s pretty tough after all the years in this fight.
But his tormentors crossed the line last fall when a big group showed up at his daughter’s middle school on the first day of classes and again at back-to-school night. They had signs displaying his name and contact information as well as those gory images of the fetuses.
Stave started a group called Voice of Choice that responded to phone calls to his home by having thousands of people call back with a thank you for the prayers.
