The pro-choice clinic escorts (hereinafter referred to as "deathscorts") in the MD/DC/NoVA area are organized under the umbrella of the "
Washington Area Clinic Defense Task Force". They wear their orange vests (I believe they call them "identifiers"). As you can see from the website, they have two-hour training sessions for new recruits from time to time. I would assume that each of the trainees are given copies of the
WACDTF Goals and Guidelines, also downloadable from their website. I suggest you have that open in another browser window as we continue in this post.
Dear WACDTF neophytes! A two-hour training session is simply not long enough to touch upon all the situations you might encounter! While I might be what is called an "anti" in deathscort parlance, I do wish to be of assistance to you. Therefore, as opportunity presents itself, I will be posting "action shots" so that you may understand what may
really be expected of you, be those expectations ever so unspoken!

| WACDTF site leader - emulating Bush! |
Today at the Spring Street Planned Parenthood (Silver Spring, MD), we saw a goodly number of deathscorts who appeared to be new to us. It appears that your site leader gave you a demonstration of the "chest block"! So that all of you might recall the technique, I post it below so that you can review at your leisure. Note the aplomb with which the site leader imposed herself in the personal spaces of the antis - several times. I realize that there might have been some chagrin as the black-shirted "anti" actually managed to give to the boyfriend some pro-life literature, however you can't be successful in blocking the truth every time. But I digress! You might wish to be very, very careful if you employ this tactic; one wrong move by half an inch could mean assault/battery charges being levied against you. Now please consult the WACDTF goals and guidelines in your other browser window; do you see this tactic being mentioned? Odd - I don't! You might wish to avoid it in its entirety -
but what is being expected of you?
Now the video! Learn your lessons!
