Nearly all House Democrats oppose resolution condemning attacks on churches, pro-life facilities

Nearly all U.S. House Democrats voted against a resolution condemning attacks against anti-abortion facilities and churches. The vote came after a report was published showing violence escalated against churches and pro-life groups last year ahead of and after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.

The House passed the measure Wednesday mostly along party lines. Three Democrats voted for it: Reps. Vicente Gonzalez of south Texas, Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington.

The resolution “condemns recent attacks of vandalism, violence, and destruction against pro-life facilities, groups and churches” and “calls upon the Biden Administration to use all appropriate law enforcement authorities to uphold public safety and to protect the rights of pro-life facilities, groups, and churches.”

There have been at least 420 hostile acts committed against primarily churches in America over the past five years, according to the report published by the Family Research Council.

The Washington, D.C.-based Christian public policy advocacy organization analyzed publicly available data from January 2018 to September 2022 and reported that it identified at least 420 acts of hostility against American churches in 45 states and the District of Columbia. The greatest number occurred in California and Texas, the two most populous states. None were reported in Delaware, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire and Vermont, according to the report.

Overall, 57 “pro-abortion acts of hostility” against churches were identified, with violence increasing last year from January to September leading up to and after the Supreme Court decision. Concerned by increasing attacks on pregnancy centers and churches, 19 attorneys general last June called on the Department of Justice to investigate.

A petty resolution is pointless. Find the attackers and jail them all at hard labor.

So they can’t stand up to oppose arson?

Why can’t Democrats wake the heck up?

The party as a whole has an average IQ
of 72.

The Democrats appear to favor political violence. As long as the violence is directed at others.

Remember: Kamala Harris raises bail money for domestic terrorists, Obama and Clinton both pardons them, Obama send millions in cash to Iran which supports terrorism, Democrat members of Congress actively support the death of Israel, Obama started his political career with a fundraiser in the house of a known domestic terrorist and Obama trades five terrorists for one deserter................ I am sure there is more, but that is off the top of my head.

They are not attacking churches, they are just demonstrating for reproductive freedom.

IOW, the same excuse the deep state and its media mouthpieces used for attacks on national monuments in the summer of 2020.

Republicans should introduce a resolution approving such attacks and dare the Dems to vote for it.
