On Tuesday of this week, the Department of Justice announced there would be charges for two individuals who have been arrested for vandalizing pregnancy centers in the state of Florida. And this is long, long overdue, considering there are still cases in cities around the country where radical left-wing abortion supporters committed acts of vandalism at similar centers where justice has not at all been served. It proves that the left somewhat condones violent behavior against those they deem their political enemies.
Thankfully, in Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis’ Florida, vile wretches who do this kind of thing, who are desperate to have the legal right to make unborn children blood sacrifices for their twisted religion of convenience, there is no quarter.
The Daily Wire is reporting, “The charge alleges that the two defendants, Caleb Freestone and Amber Smith-Stewart, took part in a conspiracy to prohibit the pregnancy center workers from offering help to men and women at the centers, the Department of Justice explained in a release on Tuesday. Included in the conspiracy, the department noted that the indictment stated the two individuals went after pregnancy centers and vandalized them with threatening messages in spray paint.”
The defendants in the case, along with several others, allegedly spray-painted phrases such as “If abortions aren’t safe than niether [sic] are you,” “WE’RE COMING for U,” “YOUR TIME IS UP!!” and “We are everywhere,” on a pregnancy center located in Winter Haven, Florida.
The suspects in the case also went after other centers located in Hollywood, Florida and the city of Hialeah as well.
“Freestone and Smith-Stewart are accused of breaking the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE Act) for two reasons — why they went after the workers and why they caused harm to the site,” the report continued. “The law does not allow individuals to keep people from ‘obtaining or providing reproductive health services’ or go after someone because they have been doing so. They also cannot ‘intentionally [damage] or [destroy] the property of a facility … because such facility provides reproductive health services…'”
Each of the defendants could spend up to 12 years behind bars, with three years of supervised release and other penalties that could potentially reach up to $350,000. Again, there’s no quarter for these psychopaths in Florida. And that’s how it should be everywhere.
One of the pregnancy centers that was attacked was run by the Archdiocese of Miami.
“I applaud our police and justice system for taking very seriously these instances of domestic terrorism against pro-life facilities. Hate crimes of this sort should not be tolerated,” Miami Archbishop Thomas Wenski said to the National Catholic Register through a spokesperson on Wednesday.
“A Facebook page that seemed to belong to Smith-Stewart reportedly reveals that she is connected with Antifa, according to National Review. The cover photo for the account is Antifa’s flag and the profile picture included an Antifa sticker with the phrase, ‘Fight all governments there’s no authority but yourself,’ and an additional sticker that said, ‘make racists afraid again.’ Smith-Stewart also posted a photo on Facebook of someone burning an American flag in August of 2021,” the Daily Wire reported.
