Nine counter-protesters were arrested near Kenmore Square Saturday after they intercepted a men's anti-abortion demonstration that was marching from Boston's only Planned Parenthood clinic to the Boston Common.
Boston police reported that several hundred counter-protesters were blocking the men's path, some dressed as clowns. Upon the convergence, each group was screaming/shouting at each other.
The group was ordered to move out of the path of the anti-abortion marchers but refused. Officers arrested nine people who "refused to peacefully disperse, they were extremely riotous and tumultuously assembled."
The marchers had signs reading 'babies are being killed' as they continued their demonstration at the Parkman Bandstand in the Boston Common, where a religious speech was made.
