6:41Now PlayingA federal court has ruled that a lower court’s ruling involving a woman who threatened an abortion doctor can not stand, and that woman should face trial. The woman in question is referred to as an anti-abortion activist and she’s been very aggressive with her tactics. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian (The Point) hosts of The Young Turks discuss.
Are these threats reason for her to go to jail? Was it just protected speech? Let us know in the comments below.

"A Kansas abortion opponent must stand trial over a letter she sent to a Wichita doctor saying someone might place an explosive under the doctor's car, a federal appeals court ruled Tuesday.
The 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals overturned late Tuesday a lower court's summary decision that anti-abortion activist Angel Dillard's letter was constitutionally protected speech. The ruling comes in a civil lawsuit brought against Dillard by the Justice Department under a federal law aimed at protecting access to abortion services. A split three-judge appeals panel said the decision about whether the letter constituted a "true threat" should be left for a jury to decide.
The appeals court also rejected Dillard's argument that the government violated her free speech rights by suing her."
