FBI agents reportedly raided the home of a pro-life activist in Pennsylvania on Friday and arrested him.
A group of between 25 and 30 FBI agents raided the Bucks County, Pennsylvania, home of pro-life activist Mark Houck early Friday morning, his family told LifeSite News. Houck is the leader of a nonprofit group that provides sidewalk counseling at abortion clinics in Philadelphia. The arrest seemed to stem from a court case that was dismissed by a federal court in Philadelphia, but was somehow picked up by the Department of Justice, his family said.
“The kids were all just screaming,” Houck’s wife, Ryan-Marie, told LifeSite. “It was all just very scary and traumatic.”
Ryan-Marie Houck told the outlet that the group of agents in SWAT gear arrived in 15 vehicles outside the family home at around 7:05 a.m. Friday morning. The agents quickly surrounded the house and began pounding on the door, demanding they open up. Houck reportedly tried to get the agents to calm down, noting that his seven children were scared, but the agents kept shouting. “[T]hey had big, huge rifles pointed at Mark and pointed at me and kind of pointed throughout the house,” his wife said.
Houck and his wife asked the agents why they were there, to which the agents allegedly replied that they were there to arrest him. His wife asked for a warrant, but “they said that they were going to take him whether they had a warrant or not,” Ryan-Marie Houck recalled. She protested, saying that what the agents were doing was tantamount to kidnapping. Only then did they provide a copy of the warrant. Shortly afterward, Houck was apparently taken out and put into one of the vehicles.
Someone put this on the recommended reading list for all Federal agents:
BRILLIANT!
RIGHT ON, Bshaw.
Excellent points!
The Communist Purge Continues To Grow Exponentially & Nothing Is Being Done About It!
Basically, our communist masters have told the indolent and servile American citizens directly that they will wear those chains and learn to love them...
We have a stasi in this country, folks. Who is going to first defend themselves from these criminals with badges?
Distinction without meaningful difference.
The difference was that you were wrong again.
Go away jackass. A religious leader was raided by the FBI and you rush in over the semantics of what his title is. You foreigners are idiotic.
“Go away jackass.”
I’m not a jackass, but your repeated errors certainly make you look like one.
“A religious leader was raided by the FBI and you rush in over the semantics of what his title is.”
Nope. I simply pointed out the truth. He is not a preacher.
“You foreigners are idiotic.”
I was born and raised in the United States. Again, you can’t help but make repeated errors. How pathetic of you. Keep failing. It’s what you do best.
Goodbye foreign jackass who hangs up on the specific ministerial chops of a man leading a prayer effort at a murder clinic. That’s a preacher in my book. Of course, my book is “the Bible”.
ARE there any "proper" lawyers out there ?
With the illegality I've been made aware of in the last 20 years, our entire political structure should have been turned over like a garden fork . . . but nothing has ever happened.
Your book isn’t the Bible. If it were, you wouldn’t be bearing false witness by calling me a foreigner when I’m not. Thank God and His grace that most Christians are not as stupid or morally bankrupt as you are.
