Confrontation Over Abortion

A woman was harassed yesterday outside of the Planned Parenthood where she works. She is a doctor at the clinic and she intends to press charges against the man who harassed her. 

He followed her to her car in the parking lot of the clinic where she works in Bloomington, Indiana. 35-year old Stacy Miller said “He was crazy and mad chasing me.” He was allegedly shouting and throwing eggs at her calling her a, “baby killer” and, “murderer.” Miller ran for her car and was forced to hide inside until he moved out of the way.

The man in custody identified, as Richard Gilford is the chairman for the pro-life program at his local church and has been charged before for similar incidents. He was seen at a protest earlier that day. “What I was doing at that clinic was the work of the Lord,” said Gilford. Gilford said that it was his calling to stop the murderers at the clinic. “I don’t think what I’m doing is evil or murder,” said Miller, “every woman has a right to her own body.”

“This is not the first time something like this has happened,” said Miller, “and I doubt it will be the last.”
