| | CONFLICT RESOLUTION AND CONSERVATIVE IDEOLOGY: THE USE OF CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE BY OPERATION RESCUE |
 | | One crisis which precipitated the rise of Operation Rescue was the perceived failure of the prolife movement to succeed in stopping abortions using legal methods. | | | However, more commonly Operation Rescue claims that it is treated unfairly by the police and by the courts. | | | By arresting participants in rescues, prosecuting them, and imposing fines or jail sentences on them, the legal system imposes costs on participants which some are not willing to incur and others are willing to incur only a limited number of times. |

| | Operation Rescue Founder Randall Terry will be at the Supreme Court on Wednesday, Dec 4, for the oral arguments. | | | At stake in the Operation Rescue vs. NOW case is whether or not private parties (such as the NOW) can obtain an injunction against peaceful protests under federal racketeering law, and therefore whether or not such protestors are guilty of "racketeering and extortion." | | | The Bush Administration will argue in Court that the NOW has no standing to obtain such an injunction against Operation Rescue participants under Racketeering Laws. |
