Heald spoke with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fox6now.com\/news\/milwaukee-preacher-punched-face-riverside\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fox 6<\/a> about his encounter with the angry high schoolers.<\/p>\n<p>Heald said he was standing outside the high school holding a sign featuring a photo of an abortion victim, and he debated with students for about 30 minutes before the attack. &#8220;Have any of you ever seen an image of a murdered baby before? I hope none of you, no one in the school is considering this,&#8221; Heald said to the crowd.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VaogBhVNeWk\" width=\"640\" height=\"355\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>School security urged Heald to leave but he refused. One student then lunged at Heald, knocking him to the ground. A woman who was with Heald also captured the attack on video, helping him up after the assault. Heald told her to call the police, and then he stood up and continued preaching.<\/p>\n<p>Heald told Fox 6 that he won&#8217;t let the assault stop him.\u00a0&#8220;I kept preaching to the students. Showing them, I wanted them to see I love them. I care about you, I love you,&#8221; he said. &#8220;That\u2019s why I am willing to get beat up or socked because I love you enough to give you the truth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/pro-choice-violence-lie-alarming-frequencey\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>\u2018Pro-choice violence\u2019 isn\u2019t an \u2018absurd lie.\u2019 It happens with alarming frequency.<\/em><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Heald said he wants the police to charge the students, but says that he forgives them. &#8220;I forgive you.
