B'ham clinic bombing victim opposes Roberts in NARAL attack ad

Emily Lyons, who was injured in the bombing of a Birmingham abortion clinic in 1998, appears in a new attack ad against Supreme Court nominee John Roberts. The ad is paid for by NARAL Pro-Choice America.

The ad maliciously and falsely accuses Judge Roberts of excusing violent tactics by protesters outside abortion clinics. Factcheck.org throughly discredits NARAL's charges here. Meanwhile, there is no dispute that both NARAL and Mrs. Lyons oppose all efforts to limit the violence that goes on inside abortion clinics, but that's a different subject.
