IOWA CITY, IA, August 22, 2013 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Police have charged a foreign graduate student with punching a 78-year-old woman holding a pro-life sign in Iowa City.

The incident took place just after 9 a.m. yesterday at the corner of Riverside Drive and Highway 1.

Police say the man, 30-year-old Man Chun John Ma, struck the elderly woman in the back. Her husband confronted the man, while she nursed arm and shoulder pain, according to a local report.

Officers say Ma admitted the attack and said he had acted wrongly, but he thought opposing abortion was “strange.”

Authorities charged Ma with assault causing bodily injury. He was reportedly released from Johnson County Jail that evening.

The man, who hails from Hong Kong, is a graduate student in the University of Iowa's Carver College of Medicine's pharmacology program and enrolled in its interdisciplinary graduate program in genetics.

A similar incident took place in Iowa City last August 8 just down the road, at the intersection of Riverside Drive and Highway 6. William Carl Kapp, 26, grabbed a graphic pro-life sign from a 77-year-old woman and destroyed it, saying the image of an aborted baby was “horrific” and “obscene.”

Apparently to the liberal mind, an "image" of an aborted child is obscene, but not the procedure itself.

They really are insane.

I’ve travelled to many countries, and not many have much a population that give a damn about the rights of unborn humans. Americans are among the very few, and we should be proud of it.

“John Ma” comes from Hong Kong and China, where everything is about money, politics, or power.

A 30-year old student thinks opposing killing babies is “strange”, does he often go around punching “strange” people?

“saying the image of an aborted baby was “horrific” and “obscene.””

Amazing the mental gymnastics these people have to go through to find it “obscene” to show pictures of something they consider “normal”

Abort his visa and send his sorry A** home with a no return. I’m sure he will be celebrated by his comrades.

You're right. He comes from a culture that finds it's "morality" in the power of the state. They have no external source to refer to that will guide them. That's why they have forced abortions with their 1 child policy and there is an underground market for eating aborted babies body parts.

He was simply trying to demonstrate to zero’s regime that he is worthy of a fast track to citizenship.

Those who support abortion should know what they support by going to abortionrary and eyewitness an abortion and handle the results, only then can they truly understand.
