Pro-life Pioneer’s Home Damaged in Cowardly Pro-Abortion Attack

Chicago, IL – Operation Rescue was outraged to learn this morning that the home of long-time pro-life leader Joseph Scheidler was attacked in the middle of the night with bricks of asphalt being thrown through two front windows. One of the bricks contained a threatening note from an obvious abortion supporter bearing a message of hate. The attack occurred around 2:00 A.M.

“We denounce in the strongest terms the cowardly violence that shattered the peace of the Scheidler home last night,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “We demand that that Attorney General Eric Holder order the Justice Department to launch an immediate investigation into this violent hate crime and to provide the same protections to Joseph and Ann Scheidler as they have in the past for unthreatened abortionists.”

There has been a recent increase in violence against peaceful pro-lifers. In September, 2009, activist Jim Pouillon was brutally murdered as he stood with a pro-life sign in front of a high school in Owosso, Michigan. Operation Rescue’s headquarters in Wichita, Kansas, has been repeatedly vandalized, and staff threatened in recent months. In Albuquerque, New Mexico, sidewalk counselors were threatened by a man at gunpoint and police later discovered a cache of weapons in the man’s vehicle.

“Joe and Ann Scheidler are pioneers in the pro-life movement whose knowledge and experience has benefitted everyone who has ever taken a stand for the lives of the pre-born,” said Newman. “Please join Operation Rescue in sending a special Christmas gift to the Scheidler’s today as a show of support and to help defray the cost of repairing the damage to their home.”

I march with Eric Scheidler's pro-life group in Aurora from time to time. These people are incredible pro-life warriors.

Of course this is not a “hate crime.”

It’s the handwriting of either a horribly disturbed or demonically possessed person.

When they’re prevented from killing their own, they want to kill others. A murderer is a murderer is a murderer.

Yes, I thought that too. It looks like it says, "I've had an abortion." So sad. She needs to visit the link Rachel's Vineyard. Abortion is Satan's baby, and it's getting more and more obvious and "out there" that that's true.

Hey, I gave them some money too, and we’re pretty darn tight with a buck, because we don’t have too many to spare, but the cause is a great one. Now the Scheidlers send me snail mails on what’s going on with their pro-life cause. I look forward to receiving their correspondence. Good family.

Looking at the note in full, it appears to say...

"We're Crazy feminist bitches Who will destroy your sexist ideas...PS I've had an Abortion and no laws could ever stop me. You can't make Queen Anne's lace illegal Asshole."

Not sure what the reference to Queen Anne's lace is all about...

First they introduce their group, “Crazy Feminist B-tch-s”. Then they state their goals, “destroy sexist ideas”. Then they put their group’s symbol on the classy stationary, which looks to be an anarchy sign with various gender symbols added on. Next they gibber about how they had an abortion, and that no law would ever stop them. Then more gibberish, something about not being able to make Queen Anne’s Lace illegal. Queen Anne’s Lace can be used in herbal abortions, it is a common weed pretty much all over. Finally they sign it at the bottom of the missive.

Thanks a lot. I couldn’t read a couple of those words and Queen Anne’s lace *is* confusing except that Joe’s wife’s name is Ann, and she is just as active as Joe is in the pro-life cause.

Thanks for the clear-up on Queen Anne’s lace. I didn’t get that part ...

It’s nice they left a note, however. That might help.

Hmmm.... This has not been reported in the Chicago MSM. I wonder why? Could it be that it doesn't fit the media narrative?

handwriting looks like it was either written by a completely uneducated buffoon, or in the hand not used to write with to prevent handwriting analysis.

They need to remember, being pro-life doesn’t negate being anti 2d amendment.

From what I saw, every word was spelled correctly. I thought it might be written with the non-dominant hand, too.

The CFB’s are masters at intimidating those who have sexist ideas. Just look at that carefully crafted note, it really gives the impression that these are sophisticated fem-scholars fighting against the Ideas of Sexism.
