LLDF: 'Fighting MURDER MILL’S frivolous action against PEACEFUL PRO-LIFE ACTIVISTS'

We’ve seen a drastic rise in the number of FACE lawsuits and prosecutions over the past year.
Dozens of abortion mills have been shuttered since the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health. So far, 15 states have passed laws prohibiting abortionists from murdering children in the womb.  As pro-life advocates focus their life-saving efforts at the abortion clinics that remain open, abortionists are more desperate than ever to silence them. Consequently, the federal FACE (Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances) Act and its state counterparts are being used to intimidate, bully, and persecute peaceful sidewalk counselors.  We’ve seen a drastic rise in the number of FACE lawsuits and prosecutions over the past year.

The FACE Act, enacted in 1994, prohibits using force, threat of force, or physical obstruction to injure, intimidate, or interfere with access to “reproductive health services.” When the FACE Act was passed, lawmakers testified that “The Act is carefully drafted so as not to prohibit expressive activities that are constitutionally protected, such as peacefully carrying picket signs, making speeches, handing out literature, or praying in front of a clinic.”

The law that expressly provides protection for First Amendment speech and activities is now being wielded as a bludgeon against pro-lifers.

The FACE Act is not limited to governmental prosecutions.  In Tennessee, the abortion clinic itself  filed a lawsuit against peaceful pro-life advocates, claiming they violated the FACE Act.

 By Zephram Foster - Posted at American Reformer: You shall not commit murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not commit pederasty, you shall not commit fornication, you shall not steal, you shall not practice magic, you shall not practice witchcraft, you shall not murder a child by abortion nor kill that which is born. -The Didache Deep Witchcraft “Nobody likes abortion,” so says the bleeding heart. “It’s just a necessary evil, we need to have more sympathy for victims.” The victims in view, oddly enough, are always the perpetrators carrying out the massacre, never the children being slaughtered. So blow the winds of our time. If you’re a Christian who affirms what the historic Christian faith has to say about the killing of an unborn child, you’ve probably had an encounter like the one above. You’ve probably been told that you just need to try and empathize more with the suffering mothers, and then you would see that the issue isn’t as black and white as your bigotry has l
