They Spew Hate, Attack Pro-Life Activists, etc, Then Say Pro-Lifers Are the Violent Ones?

I guess this proves the old saying, that if you repeat a lie enough times then you will come to believe it. Taking a cue from Fr. Pavone, I have to ask what this person means by anti-abortion terror. Does he mean peacefully praying outside an abortion clinic? Does he mean having signs that show what an abortion does to the unborn child? Does he refer to sidewalk counciling? Yes, as Father Pavone points out, there has been the rare case of violence by an extremist. When it happenned, the 1st people to speak out against the violence have been Pro-Life leaders. But, when is the last time you heard a Pro-Choice (Pro-abortion) advocate decry even 1 act of violence against a Pro-Lifer or a crisis pregnancy center? Actually, they have been applauded by other leaders in the "culture of death" for doing so.

If the Pro-Choice side is so against violence, where is the outcry on their side for this threat against Fr. Pavone? Truth be told, I suspect a good number of them are hoping he follows through. & many of them would supply the means as well. After all, if killing 3200 or more babies a day is OK in their minds, then what is 1 more death to them?

We need to pray for God to protect our Pro-Life leaders. A few months ago I said that many of us may be martyred for trying to build the "Culture of Life". This is 1 time when I would like to be wrong, but know that I may be proven right. But, just like God has used the "blood of martyrs" as seed for growth of the Church, so will He use the blood shed in defending life as a battering ram to tear down strongholds in the "culture of death".

Fr. Frank Pavone of Priests for Life Receives Post-Election Death Threat

Commentary by Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director, Priests for Life

WASHINGTON, November 11, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - I received the following message on my blog (http://www.priestsforlife.org/blog ) the day after the elections:

“IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR FATHER FRANK PAVONE

“I am predicting that there will be more anti-abortion terror because of this election. I AM ALSO PREDICTING THAT THIS TIME IT WILL BE ANSWERED IN KIND BY PRO-CHOICE COUNTERTERRORISTS, who will mount similar terrorist attacks against well-known right-to-lifers. FATHER FRANK will be a natural target for pro-choice counterterrorists.
“I therefore advise you, Fr Frank, if you read that there has been another abortion-clinic shooting or bombing, get out of town immediately. Take a vacation abroad. Go visit the Vatican. If there is another act of anti-abortion terror, your life will not be safe in the USA.
“Good luck.”

Some other pro-life leaders received a similar message, and it has been reported to law enforcement.
Pro-abortion extremists call the pro-life movement "violent." Yet it's the most peaceful movement of social reform in our nation's history. In fact, the most confrontational aspect of our movement, Operation Rescue, brought about over 70,000 arrests from 1987 to 1994, yet not a single one of them was for violent activity.
We also know that any time a movement is as big as ours, there will be a handful of people - disconnected from the movement - who embrace violence as a tactic. The same was true of the civil rights movement and the abolitionist movement.
But of no movement is it more true than the pro-abortion movement. It's just that the public doesn't know of their fanatical violence. It starts in the womb, of course - the very action they promote as a "right" is in fact violence. "Typically, the skull is brought out in fragments rather than as a unified piece," abortionist Martin Haskell testified in court in 1999 regarding the legal "D and E" abortion procedure.
And their violence extends beyond the womb. Just visit http://www.prochoiceviolence.com to see that our movement has been able to document 8519 acts of violence (and counting) by the other side. Pro-abortion fanatics have attacked pro-life demonstrators, have kidnapped women to force them to abort, have murdered born babies, and much more.
So for the visitor to my blog to send that message just reinforces the truth about the "abortion-rights" fanatics. Violence is their way of life.
But why blame Obama? Of course, he is the most pro-abortion person elected to the Presidency. Perhaps they're thinking back to President Clinton, whose attempts to stop peaceful intervention coincided with the killing of some abortionists. Or perhaps they're thinking of President Kennedy's assertion, "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable."
But we already have a peaceful revolution - and not only is it possible, it's growing! As long as I have anything to say about it, there won't be any "anti-abortion terror." Instead, there will be peaceful vigil, 24-hours a day, around abortion centers. That both stops abortions and stops the killing of abortionists.
