In the last several months, meanwhile, violence against churches and pro-life pregnancy centers has escalated. The “Summer of Rage” declared by the pro-abortion Women’s March has resulted in the desecration of places of worship, particularly Catholic churches. Pro-life pregnancy centers that provide much-needed support and care to women in unexpected pregnancies have been vandalized and firebombed as well. Groups like Ruth Sent Us and Jane’s Revenge have taken credit for the attacks and organized protests at the homes of Supreme Court justices.

Biden administration Attorney General Merrick Garland has shown almost no interest in enforcing the law, which threatens fines or imprisonment for any person who, “with the intent of influencing any judge, juror, witness, or court officer, in the discharge of his duty, pickets or parades in or near a building housing a court of the United States, or in or near a building or residence occupied or used by such judge, juror, witness, or court officer.” The law is crystal clear: Garland is derelict in his duty.

And where is our Catholic president during this time? On the day Roe was overturned, he said, “I call on everyone, no matter how deeply they care about this decision, to keep all protests peaceful. Peaceful, peaceful, peaceful. No intimidation. Violence is never acceptable.” While the sentiment is right, Biden’s inaction and lack of concern regarding the continued violence and illegal protests is appalling.
