Praying outside the abortion center is a little misleading, from the images it seems to be a suite inside a building. And from the pictures it implies they were blocking the entrance which could dissuade people from trying to go inside it... which is a good thing given that this is a place of despair and death, but even union picketers know you can't block the entrance.
THAT BEING SAID, arresting and prosecuting for 11 years in jail is monstrously excessive when at the very worst they should just be issued a criminal trespass which just bars them from going back to the building and isn't really a public records thing.
I imagine these people are going to be able to bring it down to a criminal trespass and then counter sue for wrongful prosecution and make out with a big bag of tax payer money.
For the sake of comparison, what would the penalty have been for torching the building in the middle of the night? Also, what is the Police closure rate on arson? One should be careful not to create perverse incentives where more dangerous behavior is actually safer for the person committing it AND more effective, Not to suggest prayer isn't effective.
How, in any way shape or form, can anyone be OK with this?? Even a libtard should have a problem with an 80yo lady arrested for praying outside.
Un-F**king-believable

No way they are getting any money for wrongful prosecution. IMO.
So they give an elderly woman a death sentence in prison for praying in public?
Does this establish that it is illegal to pray in public? (the rest are just details).
