5. They might try to identify cars
And I'm taking advantage of the nice weather to try to keep in shape and save gas by riding my bike.

I'm not afraid of them.

Their main weapon is words.

I do have an experience with being a patient at a clinic that Operation Rescue was picketing. I've mentioned it here before, but I was nearly killed by Operation Rescue. They blocked my line of sight from both directions while I was trying to turn onto a busy street at rush hour. The only time I could get in for my Lyme Disease blood test was then, and I wanted to miss as little work as possible. They harassed me on the way in, stalking me up to the front door, and I yelled at them. Apparently to them a woman of child bearing age who isn't pregnant isn't life, but a fetus or embryo is.

I remember this incident and I am an escort in part because of it. I was somewhat wishy washy in my leaning pro-choice until that moment. Operation Rescue can be credited for turning me into a dedicated pro-choice activist.
