While criminals are running free across our borders, four pro-life Christians are staring down prison time for praying at an abortion clinic in Tennessee.

Eva Edl, Eva Zastrow, James Zastrow, and Paul Place had charges brought against them for being part of a peaceful protest on March 5, 2021. They gathered on the second floor of an office building in the hallway outside the Carafem Health Center Clinic. The group prayed, sang hymns, and urged women showing up to the clinic to not get abortions.

It seems as though Edl, the Zastrows and Place violated the FACE Act (Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances) of 1994. They face up to a year in prison and thousands of dollars of fines. Their sentencing is on July 30, 2024.

The FACE Act makes it a federal crime to use force, the threat of force, or physical obstruction to prevent individuals from obtaining or providing reproductive health care services. FACE also authorizes reproductive health care providers, the state attorney general, and/or the federal government to bring civil lawsuits to get injunctions against these activities, or to get monetary damages.”-Prochoice.org

Because praying, singing hymns and urging women to not kill the life living inside of them is a “threat of force” and a “physical obstruction”.

Meanwhile global warming fools block public streets for hours and no arrests.

Meh. Commuters have to get to work or home to their families. No prison time for these fools.

They’re just blocking traffic. Pro-lifers singing hymns and saying prayers, though, is, uh…catastrophic.

But all the "mostly peaceful" rioters walked free…

Hell, the Vice President of The United States and abortion czar, Kamala Harris, may even support a bail fund if you were this kind of protester. Hurling a brick at the window of a small mom-and-pop in downtown Portland in the name of “justice”? You walk free. A pro-life protester? You’re obstructing justice. You may very well go to the pen for a long, long time.

Singing hymns and saying prayers is, in this case, criminal activity. Just ask prosecuting DOJ, Amanda Klopf. (GASP!) These individuals must be punished! The rule of law has been violated! This is what the Biden Administration thinks.

That’s right. Worshipping or praying at the doors of an abortion clinic will get you federal charges. Practicing your faith will get you arrested. Doing this will also get you arrested…

…and later released without bail!

We live in a time where contending for your faith and for the life of a child without a voice will get you time in prison. Harboring an innocent child in an apartment with guns n’ketamine, with a sprinkling of cocaine, while in this country illegally and squatting in someone else’s home will get you sprung from jail. This should go without saying, but this is how backwards we have become.

Praying and singing hymns are considered “extreme“, a “blockade” which was “a premeditated act of trespass, aimed at obstructing our clients from accessing and our staff from providing essential healthcare services” and “an unfortunate illustration of leveraging personal agendas to justify impeding (our) small business from operating”, according to said Melissa Grant, a chief operating officer of Carafem.

A “small business”? I suppose so. Planned Parenthood does have most of the abortion “business” on lock. Gotta harvest some baby body parts.

Let’s add more irony here to this story. Eva Edl, one of the protesters, grew up in Eastern Europe and survived a Communist concentration camp. As a free American, she was saying prayers and singing hymns for unborn children. But she was also, according to the Biden Administration, “obstructing justice”.

This was a peaceful demonstration by entirely peaceable citizens — filled with prayer, hymn-singing, and worship — oriented toward persuading expecting mothers not to abort their babies.”-Steve Crampton, attorney with the Thomas More Society.

These four individuals may go to prison because they were seen as “obstructing” access to “reproductive care” and encouraging this “public health crisis” of women being unable stop the living heartbeats of the unborn. Meanwhile, dangerous people and illegal drugs pour over our borders and into our cities, killing children.

Yeppers. Pretty much. This is where we are at. Prayers and worship are an act of extremism (only if you are a Christian, though.) The only children allowed to possess a voice are the ones outside of the womb, and on the side of the correct political party. The only children the Democrats want to have a “voice” are the ones who follow their script, who are compliant. If they teach them there is no Creator, that our Creator does not love us or care about us, if they doctor-up history and other lessons in the classroom and they confuse them enough about who they are, and what gender they are, perhaps they will physically alter themselves to the point of sterilization, walking in lock-step with the State. All of this with a person at the helm who cannot utter a coherent sentence. I can see it now, the brainwashed Biden youth drooling at the mouth because most of ’em cannot seem to breathe through their noses. These mouth-breathers are our-future-taking the government handouts, living on their empty promises and reciting “no hooooman is illegullll”.

The only plus side to this is that there may be fewer abortions with more citizens who inadvertently sterilized themselves with “gender affirming” hormones and “therapies”. The Democrats will eventually then need to find another political platform besides killing babies.Hmmm…what’s next?

This is the road to Babylon we’re traveling on. They hate children. Every.Single.One.Of.Them.
