Pro-abortion violence continues as the Supreme Court draws close to a potential overturn of the Roe v. Wade<\/em> decision. The most recent acts of pro-abortion violence\u00a0began<\/a> on Mother’s Day last month as multiple groups took to the streets in protest vowing<\/a> to be “ungovernable” and to ignite a “Summer of Rage,” with some calling for “revolution” and “revenge” against anyone who takes the position that killing preborn children should be abolished.<\/p>\n

Live Action News previously<\/a> detailed a litany of violent incidents ranging from vandalism and threats to fire bombs and damaged property by unhinged individuals. Below are additional incidents of violence tracked by Live Action News.<\/p>\n

    June 4\/5<\/strong>: Sometime during the weekend of June 4-5, someone plastered posters on the\u00a0Care Net Puget Sound offices in Federal Way, Washington, claiming the facility wants to “push forced birth options.” The posters instructed the public to go to abortion business Planned Parenthood instead. Amelia Graham,\u00a0Communications Director of the pro-life center, told Live Action News, “Along with these posters, we’ve seen a huge influx of fake Google reviews and our sign at our center in Bellevue was shredded into pieces. Regrettably, we don’t have any pictures of that vandalism.”<\/p>\n
