Portland abortion protesters target pregnancy support center: 'The violence was horrible' Rioters target family and pregnancy centers nationwide
FOX NEWS ^ | June 27, 2022 | Elizabeth Heckman | Fox News

The head of a Portland family and pregnancy support center said Monday on "Fox & Friends First" the nonprofit was mistakenly targeted and damaged by protesters angry over the Supreme Court decision to reverse Roe v. Wade.

Mother and Child Education Center executive director Maura White told hosts Carley Shimkus and Joey Jones that the organization is not "anti-abortion," as protesters believed.

"My organization, we are nonprofit, and we help moms, families, kids in need, babies from zero to 5 years old. We're just there to help people. And so they mistakenly thought that we were out here doing anti-abortion and everything, the violence was horrible," said White.

A large group of rioters was seen in downtown Portland, Oregon smashing windows and vandalizing several buildings Saturday night. The group also graffitied messages targeting the U.S. Supreme Court.

The group, made of about 100 people, were yelling and chanting as they marched down the streets and would periodically stop to destroy and graffiti objects.

"Death to SCOTUS," one black spray-painted message said.

he group's destructive spree comes a day after a majority on the Supreme Court voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, which recognized the right of women to get an abortion.

White said she felt supported by the police, believes the ‘defund the police’ is impacting the community.

"I do feel that the ‘defund the police’ movement has definitely impacted their ability to be more proactive and be out there on the streets."

White, a self-identified pro-choice liberal Democrat Catholic, said she does not understand why her organization was a target for violence.

If God is good, He will find a way to extricate the good people from there and then send a meteor to obliterate Portland.

Are they calling vandalism: "violence" to make it sound scarier?

Verily, verily I say unto you, dismembering babies in the womb is true "vilolence".

Psalm 137
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
2 We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.
3 For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion.
4 How shall we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?
5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.
6 If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
7 Remember, O Lord, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.
8 O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.
9 Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.

Perhaps our conservative Justices leaked their opinion beforehand, then overturned “Roe” when they did, just to make Democrats act like the rabid animals they truly are in time for the midterms. Baby killers rioting in Oregon, a “liberal” state that will always allow the dismembering of unborn children, makes little sense if playing “devil’s advocate.”

These are kids who needed to be spanked when younger, and told “NO” more often.

No, the death cultists accurately thought you help families, and that was enough to incur their wrath.

In supporting the BLM and Antifa riots, the left has signaled that mob violence is a legitimate means of protest.

“This is a very real civil war.”

Aided and abetted by most social media platforms.

So the baby killer wonders why other baby killers are violent? Kinda goes with the territory.”Pro choice” was a lying propaganda term used to deceive .You’re baby killers. You’re violent. It’s what you do.

It is nearing the time for us, the moral and just people, to bring justice to this nation once more. When this storm arises the ashes of the immoral with cover the ground. May God have mercy on their
souls.

These people are pure evil. They are trying to take reversing a wrong decision that was unconctitutional. They are people who want to make up law to suit themselves.
