Catholic Pro-Life Student Attacked at Public School, School Criticized for Lack of Protection
Catholic News Agency ^ | 5/26/22 | Joe Bukuras

Washington, D.C. Newsroom, May 26, 2022 / 03:05 am Seven students have been suspended from Hunterdon Central Regional High School in New Jersey — and seven “extended detentions” given, with more disciplinary measures possibly to come — after a rowdy pro-abortion protest by students resulted in the physical and verbal assault of a sophomore holding a pro-life sign.

Jeffrey Moore, the school’s superintendent, acknowledged the “distressing” behavior of the pro-abortion students toward 16-year-old Nichole Pagano at a live-streamed school board meeting on May 23. But he was still severely criticized at the meeting for the way the situation was handled.

At the meeting, Moore gave a presentation about the unsanctioned protest, which took place on May 16.

“I want to reiterate, certainly the most distressing moments of this incident were in the behavior that was shown to counter-protesters who had arrived and those involved,” he said.

“Shoving, expletive-laden verbal aggression, vandalism to signs, signs were knocked over, thrown, kicked, all of those things that made this a most distressing and disrespectful scene and example of student behavior against a student there who showed up with another viewpoint.”

Nichole speaks out

Nichole told CNA on May 24 that when she and her senior sister Vanessa, both Catholics, saw around 200 students forming a pro-abortion protest in the middle of the school’s campus during class hours, they immediately felt a call to action: they needed to stand up for the unborn. And they did.

As Nichole walked around the protest holding a pro-life sign that said “Equal Rights For Babies in the Womb,” she was physically attacked and screamed at by students.

It’s a very short step from killing babies to killing adults.

Physical assault? Call the cops and have them arrested. None of this “extended detention” nonsense.

Disgraceful!

200 against 2.

Bullies and cowards.

New Jersey gets worse and worse. Most of my relatives from there have moved south recently.

I live in Huterdon county and this is the first I have heard of this. Thia area is very conservative normally with very little crime. Hunterdon Central is usually very quiet,

Thigs may be changing with new waves of residens moving into “ affordable housing”.

The more victories we win in the fight against abortion, the more unhinged and violent the pro-abortionists will become.

“Nichole Pagano”

I will say Catholics, Christians, and conservative people of many religions, but really anyone who defends nature and sanity are increasingly at risk of being torn apart by the pagans.
