A New Mexico man lashed out at his ex-girlfriend by posting a billboard proclaiming he would have a 2 month old child if the mother had not decided to abort the child. Despite the fact that his name is not on the billboard, nor is hers, she is suing him for harassment and invading her privacy. He claims free speech.
It seems to me that he is not violating her privacy, as she is not named, however, the people they know may recognize him and realize what she has done.
If abortion is a woman's right, then why is she embarrassed by the billboard? Her friends are claiming it was a miscarriage, but it does not appear she is alleging that in the lawsuit. If it was a miscarriage, it seems she should be alleging libel or slander, not harassment and privacy claims.
I find it ironic that the "right" to abortion is clashing with a specific right listed in the Constitution. It seems that speech should win, but it didn't in the case of abortion protesters at abortion facilities.
