Activists protest abortion clinic 'bubble' rule

  

November 17, 2009 (CHICAGO) (WLS) -- Pro-life activists gathered on Tuesday to protest the city of Chicago's new 'bubble' ordinance.

They used an eight foot long rope to demonstrate the distance they are now required to keep from a person approaching an abortion clinic. It, in effect, creates a bubble around that person so pro-life activists can't hand them literature.

Planned Parenthood says the ordinance is all about the safety of patients.

The protestors say the ordinance is unconstitutional.
