Pro-abortion attacks on pro-lifers: No consequences from the feds

Police say they are still investigating a violent assault on pro-life activists that took place outside a D.C. Planned Parenthood clinic in late July. But a closer look at the manner in which D.C. authorities handle attacks on pro-lifers raises questions about the lack of consequences for the attackers—and how safe it is for those engaged in pro-life work in the nation’s capital.

The most recent incident involved an attack on pro-life activists Terrisa Bukovinac and Mike Gribbin outside the Planned Parenthood Carol Whitehill Moses Center on 4th Street Northeast. Both Bukovinac and Gribbin have been advocating for the unborn in D.C. for several years, though they are affiliated with different pro-life organizations.
