DENVER -
Thirteen anti-abortion activists, including Operation Rescue founder
Randall Terry, were arrested after blocking a security gate near the
site of the Democratic National Convention.
Police three times asked about 35 protesters to leave before making the 13 arrests.
The protesters were being bused to a detention facility.
Earlier
today, anti-abortion activists unfurled a huge sign on a mesa west of
Denver equating the Democratic National Convention with abortion, but
later removed it at the request of authorities.
