How many Incidents have there been in the last 3 years of harassing NIPing Moms?

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 
These are the ones I could think of off the top of my head:

Brooke Ryan, KY, Applebee's
Jessica Denny, KY, restaurant
_____ Gillette, VT, Delta
Kristin, CO, waterpark

The NC Denny's--sorry, I was stressing over the bill passed in the ND Senate and didn't read up on that.

What else?

FirstRight.org has been compiling a database of all incidents we can find going back to 2003, and all incidents reported to us directly.

So far as of March 2009 we have over 100 in the database.

100 for 2003-2009 or 100 in the last year?

There's been incidents at McDonalds and Starbucks, but I don't remember the years (both with lots of press and nurse-ins I believe).
It was Emily with the Delta incident
June 2006 Victoria's Secret Jessica (who I can't remember her last name- sorry Jess) Boston MA
June 2007 Applebees
The mom with the incident at Ronald McDonald house

Oh, more, just brain freeze right now.

We have received over 80 reports in the year and a half of officially collecting them. The others are from past incidents that got media attention etc...

And these are just the reported and/or publicized incidences. Imagine how many more happen everyday, and happen without further incident. Other than the mom feeling harrassed or discouraged or mad .
