The Bray Case

Feinstein asks him about the Bray case, where he argued that clinic protests per se did not constitute opposition to women to the degree that women seeking abortions warranted extra federal protection from protestors. Men, too, were barred from entering. State law, Roberts argued, did indeed apply.

Roberts: "Are people who are opposed to abortion opposed to women? The answer that the court gave was 'no.'"
