After a pro-life volunteer in Michigan was shot and wounded while door-knocking over a controversial ballot amendment, a fellow pro-lifer says people shouldn’t be in danger for exercising their First Amendment rights.
The ballot on Nov. 8 will include Prop 3, which enshrines abortion in the state constitution, and the unnamed shooting victim was canvassing homes Sept. 20 in Lake Odessa to urge people to vote against it.
Anna Visser, of Right to Life of Michigan, tells AFN the volunteer was involved in an “altercation” at a home with another woman where the volunteer was shot in the arm and shoulder by another person, a man, who was not involved in that argument.
The pro-life canvasser, who was handing out pamphlets about Prop 3, was exercising her First Amendment rights and was acting peacefully, according to the pro-life group.
“So she doesn’t deserve to be shot in the back,” Visser says, “just because someone doesn’t agree with her.”
Reached by phone Tuesday, a spokesperson for the Michigan State Police told AFN the shooting is still under investigation and no arrests have been made.
The shooting victim, who is 84, drove herself to a nearby police station. From there she was transported to a hospital, where she was treated and released.
Visser says the shooting victim is in “good spirits” after the shooting, “but she’s still recovering from a gunshot wound.”

Let me get this straight: An obviously Leftist so-called Man can shoot an 84 year old woman in the back because he didn’t like a verbal altercation he had nothing to do with…and he isn’t even booked immediately for assault and/or attempted murder?
I guess it falls into the new logic on the Left. Conservatives are so dangerous to them that it is permissible to use deadly force to stop those on the Right from exercising their guaranteed 1st Amendment Rights.
If someone can run down an eighteen year old young man because he thinks he was a radical Right wing Extremist, and be out and walking around and going on with his life the next day, then simply winging an old woman by shooting her from behind as she’s leaving your house simply because you overheard an unpleasant verbal altercation he wasn’t even involved in must be no big deal at all.
And by their definitions, We are the dangerous, intolerant ones.
THese days it seems so.. IF the left hates right wingers, KILL THEM and its all ok in the eyes of the media/the so called INJUSTICE dept.
