Please let her go! Shes pregnant! one onlooker shouted.
Get her off of her fucking stomach, another said. In response to this, one agent fired a Taser into the crowd. Who wants more? he taunted, according to WCCO.

right then and there. Of course, everyone who *could* do that is party to the illegal behavior.
I have no doubt there've been women who have miscarried because of actions like this and worse... have any of the goons been arrested for prenatal murder?
