The damage liberals and left-wing radicals are doing to political rights


[....]Since the May 2 leak of the Supreme Court’s draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade, some 24 violent assaults have been carried out on pregnancy centers.

 

 

A group called Jane’s Revenge said it carried out some of the attacks, leaving graffiti on site reading, “If abortion isn’t safe, you aren’t either.” On June 14 the group vandalized the Minneapolis center of the Minnesota Citizens Concerned for Life.

On June 10 pro-abortion activists threw an incendiary device through the window of the Gresham Pregnancy Resource Center near Portland, Oregon. The center provides counseling and medical services to women and new mothers.

In a press statement, Jane’s Revenge threatened more violence that “may not come in the form of something so easily cleaned up as fire and graffiti.… Any anti-choice group who closes their doors, and stops operating will no longer be a target.” It added, “But until you do, it’s open season.”

Protesters seeking to resurrect the fatally flawed Roe decision — which cut off needed debate on how to win women’s rights — released maps of the homes of conservative Supreme Court justices and are organizing pickets there. A group called Ruth Sent Us published the details of the church that conservative Justice Amy Coney Barrett goes to and the name of the religious school her children attend, targeting them for attack and undermining the right to worship.

Walls were put up around the Supreme Court June 9, a day after Nicholas John Roske was arrested outside the home of Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Roske was armed with a Glock handgun, ammunition, knife, zip ties and pepper spray. He told the police he planned to kill Kavanaugh and then commit suicide. Roske’s arrest received little coverage in much of the liberal press.

“These types of actions do nothing to advance women’s rights,” Candace Wagner, Socialist Workers Party candidate for governor of Pennsylvania, told the Militant. “They are the opposite of what working people need — the opportunity to discuss and debate how we can join together to protect ourselves and our families, fight for jobs, better wages and working conditions and the many other things we need, such as access to family planning, including contraception as well as safe and secure abortion.”

A sign of the intensity of the factional warfare between Democratic and Republican parties was the decision by 27 House Democrats to vote against a bill to provide 24-hour security at the homes of all Supreme Court justices.
