Since Dobbs Decision Leak, Violence Against Pro-Lifers Was Over 22 Times That Against Pro-Choicers
Townhall ^ | 11/07/22 | John R. Lott Jr.

After the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade leaked on May 3rd, news reports blamed abortion-related violence over the summer on pro-life supporters.

“[W]e have seen a steady rise in violence and harassment against providers from anti-abortion extremists who continue to be emboldened by the Supreme Court’s decision,” claimed Melissa Fowler, Chief Program Officer of the National Abortion Federation (NAF).

"People want me dead’: abortion providers fear violence after Roe overturned,” a headline in The Guardian read. Other news outlets, such as NBC News, also focused on the increased threat of violence against abortion providers. But national news sources don’t mention violence against people on the pro-life side of the debate.

It never made much sense, anyway. Why would a major win in the Supreme Court cause pro-life people to suddenly resort to more violence? The pro-choice people would be more upset and, presumably, more likely to lash out.

Murderers are like that.

Violence to get what they want is who they are.

I’m old enough to remember all the fulminating and outrage at the leaker and all those people swearing they were going to get to the bottom of this and prosecute the leaker.

And here we remain, all swept under the rug... as usual.

And the irony is the Left is promoting propaganda that the conservatives are “domestic terrorists” who failed to overthrow the government on Jan.6th but are plotting gun violence now. Which THEY are doing every day and plotting if they lose the midterms.

But, the pro-choicers (aka: pro-abortion) committed millions of murders against the unborn during that time,

Ten of the pro-abortion attacks listed on Lott’s site occurred in Washington State. I doubt that the pro-abortion maniacs at The Seattle Times ever said a word against it. In fact, the articles I saw seemed to be encouraging it.

"Which THEY are doing every day and plotting if they lose the midterms."

It has been conveniently forgotten by the media that - before the 2020 election - leftist groups were promising to shut down the government, DC, even the entire country, if Trump won the election. And - given what we saw in the summer of 2020 - that is exactly what they would have tried to do.

Since Dobbs Decision Leak, Violence Against Pro-Lifers Was Over 22 Times That Against Pro-Choicers we still don't know who the leaker was.

And we never will.

Of course. Their accusers those who would indict the murderers, must without hesitation bear the brunt of their fiery, vicious temper exerted on those who would thwart their will.

And By nature, in their deep-seated selfishness, the "pro-choicers" cannot resist their infantile lust, nor face the integrity that the consequences demand, and tale the easy, bloody way of baby-slicing to be able to do it again. No one's life has any meaning but their own, and that without delay, sp that more tragedy and death of the body, soul, and spirit may continue, prefaced by the sensory-culminating thrill that brings it about.

A few find sorrowful regret, volunteer true confession, repentance (=change of mind), forgiveness of the babe's Creator, and redemption to a new, deeper, abundant, eternal life, judiciously declared without guilt both procedurally and substantially, so that once more they may meet again the heavenly being that the mighty God and Savior has kept, sins uncommitted, to be reacquainted with its dear completely Forgiven Mom, joyfully, forever!

Imagine the regret that the babe's temporary self-serving condemned hell-bound roasting host will be saddled with.

Nauseous.

Forever.

Jesus Saves.

Moms.

Dads.

Still-born babes.

When asked in full committed trust according to His Promises.

instantly.

For ever.

Still waiting for the Roberts report on who leaked. Any bets on whether we will actually find out who did this? Or will Roberts bury it to protect his liberal buddies on the court?

I seriously doubt if there has been any violence against pro-abortion people.
