The simple fact is that people are expressing their opinions in both groups. And both groups are told where they can do it. You may not like what the pro-life protesters have to say or the tones they use to say it, but that's part of free speech.

The reasons why these groups are isolated may be different or they may not be, I don't know. Have other protests of Bush been disruptive enough to warrant similar treatment?

The quote above yields another key point, the fact that "some" go to extremes should not mean that all have their rights infringed upon.
