NYC Catholic church receives threats to bomb, burn down church after SCOTUS opinion leaked

Rev. Brian Graebe of St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral in New York City, said the pro-choice demonstrations following the leaked Supreme Court draft are "of an entirely different order" than what he’s encountered in the past.

Graebe explained on "America’s Newsroom" Monday that his church has a monthly event called The Witness For Life Mass. After the service, most attendees walk down the street to Planned Parenthood and pray the rosary across the street. Graebe said a handful of demonstrators often voice opposition.

The demonstration following the leaked Supreme Court draft, however, drew nearly 100 pro-choice activists. Police advised Graebe not to hold the monthly procession as a result.

"They recognized many of the faces in the crowd as what they termed ‘professional agitators,’" Graebe told hosts Bill Hemmer and Dana Perino.

Police warned Graebe that the safety and protection of his parishioners could not be guaranteed.

Graebe touted law enforcement’s efforts and said the church had private security throughout the weekend. He said most of the phone calls the church has received have been supportive.

But he remains on high alert due to violent threats.

A lot of where America is headed is disappointing to me, but I’m not going to indulge myself in my disappointment. Instead, I’m going to pray for my opponents and that Americans see that there is a better path other than violence and hate to be on: Jesus Christ.

“How much longer will it be legal to be Catholic in the U.S.?”

Don’t worry. Catholics can sleep easy. They have “devout” Catholic Pro-Abortion, Pro-Gay Marriage, Pro-Gender Theory, Pro-Contraception, Anti-Conscience Rights Joe Biden to protect their rights.

Exactly.

Maybe it is time for the congregants to show up CCW and carrying shotguns and baseball bats.

A few of these idiots getting their heads and knees bashed might send a message to the rest of them — that people are not putting up with their nonsense any longer.
