Joan Jacobson is in her 80's. She is a volunteer for Right to Life of Michigan - a o-life, anti-abortion group, best this author can tell. On 20 September she was going door to door in Odessa Township trying to convince residents to vote against a proposition presented for popular vote in the upcoming election that would liberalize abortion laws in the state. The owner, Richard Harvey, 74, allegedly told her to leave and then shot her in the shoulder. Luckily, the wound was not significant and she was able to drive herself to a local police station and was then taken to a hospital, treated and released.
Harvey has been arrested and charged with a number of offenses, the chief of them being felonious assault and reckless discharge of a firearm causing injury. I am a little surprised attempted murder is not part of the charges as it is only in the movies that you get to shoot someone in the shoulder just to make a point, without a risk of them bleeding out. Yes, thee are arteries in the shoulder, yes, you can cut one and cause the victim to die, no, you can not know from the outside very exactly they are in a person. It is also important to note that the "liberals", so called, can be quiet illiberal, intolerant and violent. Some of them wouldn't think twice even to use deadly force in an unprovoked manner on an old lady. Just ask Richard Harvey.
