New in PJ Media:
Roe v. Wade has at long last been overturned, and the Left’s response has been predictable: Leftists are pounding the walls and gnashing their teeth with rage and hatred. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-Make Mine a Double) has shouted that the decision is “illegitimate” and led pro-abortion activists in chants of “into the streets.” Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Unhinged) has proclaimed, “The hell with the Supreme Court. We will defy them!” But no one expects the supporters of Antifa and Black Lives Matter to confine their rage to words alone: even Old Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security paused from hunting for “white supremacists” on Friday to warn Catholic churches to prepare for a “night of rage.”
If there is violence at churches, it certainly won’t be anything new. Live Action’s Lila Rose pointed out Thursday that “Since the Dobbs v Jackson draft was leaked, pro-abortion activists have: -Vandalized 16 churches -Vandalized at least 16 pro-life pregnancy centers -Firebombed 4 pro-life pregnancy centers and offices -Attempted to assassinate a Supreme Court Justice Where’s the outrage?”
Where indeed? We can only imagine what would be happening now on CNN and in The New York Times if 16 abortion clinics had been vandalized, but the guardians of acceptable opinion can’t be bothered to deplore violence in the service of their pet causes.
Pro-abortion activists have been threatening violence if Roe was overturned for quite some time. It would be more surprising at this point if Leftists remained calm and vowed to work peacefully and within the bounds of the law than if they started howling with irrational rage and burning things down, as they sought to forbid states from outlawing the murder of children.
Accordingly, the DHS has told churches to be ready for “extreme violence.” This is striking in itself. Considering that Biden’s handlers’ Justice Department has taken the unprecedented step of publicly dissenting from the Supreme Court’s decision, and that the Biden administration refused to condemn the illegal protests at the homes of the Justices who were seen as likely to vote to overturn Roe (and did so), it’s nothing short of astonishing that this warning was issued at all. After all, the Biden Department of Homeland Security was only recently setting up a Disinformation Governance Board to monitor and control Americans’ speech. Now it cares if Catholic churches are targeted for being pro-life? It’s intriguing that DHS apparently believes it has to keep up appearances in this regard. Is the DHS aware that the cultural momentum is swinging away from the hard Left that has dominated American society for so long?
There is more. Read the rest here.

“Leftists are pounding the walls and gnashing their teeth with rage”
Well, that is the lefts form of “democracy!”. I will say that they are entertaining in a creepy ghoulish way.
Infidel says
The churches should have armed militias outside them, and shoot anybody trying to attack them. Do a Kyle Rittenhouse, particularly in red states
CogitoErgoSum says
I can assure you that vandalizing a church is not going to change today’s Supreme Court decision. There is another way to change things but these pro-abortion maniacs are too stupid to figure out what it might be. Should a few of them get themselves aborted this weekend I will not shed a tear for them but I will say a prayer that their spot in Hell may be of the “fiery but mostly peaceful” kind.
somehistory says
Yes, warning the churches, and also saying that those who want to defend themselves are dangerous, as if they have no Constitutional right to do so. With arms if necessary to prevent being set on fire.
aoc…says the Court put “every woman” in danger. “Every woman’? even the swimmer, thomas? How about e warran, and n. pelosi, and k. harris, and l. cheney? And how about that ugly, disgusting creature who has a bleached blond head of hair and refers to himself as “she” and is in the U.S. health and human services?
Such hyperbole. Such lies. All lies. they have learned well from the mozlums they have imported and defend., with lies.
tgusa says
Outspoken liberal activist Megan Rapinoe is blasting men for their “silence” on the abortion issue and pleading with them to “stand up.”
To misquote Yogi Berra, the ludicrous can be pretty ludicrous at times.
somehistory says
You know what Lincoln said about “fooling” people? Well that goes for some people not making sense “all of the time.”
Wellington says
Anyone who has purple hair and kneels for the national anthem is someone I never need pay any attention to or respect. Indeed, including the exact opposite of such a person will make it about 99% likely you will be aligned with the truth.
tgusa says
So true, both of you.
Sheila says
Screaming histrionics with spittle and profanity flying over not being able to kill their children with impunity.
Ready to do violence, endanger the lives of others, riot, smash, burn, destroy property, and for what? Because a grievous error has been CORRECTED, legally and according to the UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION which IS the LAW OF THE LAND.
Lord, have mercy on these poor blind fools.
Wellington says
If anyone needed solid evidence of the decadence of the Left, look not first and foremost to its many inclinations to use violence to get their way, but rather look to how completely unconcerned it is with arguably the most innocent of human existences, i.e., the human fetus (which every single rabid pro-abortion advocate, no exceptions and how ironic, was at one time themselves).
A world which could be as ethical as possible would be a pro-life world, giving the fetus the benefit of the doubt. The rabid pro-abortion people will miss this too. In the final analysis, Leftism and ethics are mortal enemies. So is striving for objectivity and Leftism, just demonstrating again that Leftism is a massive error and rooted in both narcissism and stupidity.
somehistory says
Wellington, when confronted with the fact that the person screaming to kill that she/he was once an unborn baby, they’ll say, “i didn’t ask to be born.” That is their only response and it is no response that answers.
they are wrong and actually, I believe they know it.
Infidel says
The most bizarre were some signs that I saw at some demonstrations that said “I wish I was aborted”.
somehistory says
I’ve seen those, too. And some actually claim that some life was ‘saved’ by it.
gravenimage says
Good exchange, Wellington, Somehistory, and Infidel.
Andrew Blackadder says
I wish some American Journalist would ask any muslim leader, perhaps in CAIR, of what their position is on abortion and let the violent reactions outside every mosque begin just as The Left are doing outside Churches, but I guess that would never happen as islam and feminism go hand in hand these days and that is THE strangest alliance in the history of life on Earth.
All the women in favor of abortion are alive, strange that huh?
tgusa says
I’m so used to seeing strange that almost nothing seems strange to me these days.
gravenimage says
Actually, Islam is not categorically opposed to abortion. Still, I take your point.
notnolib says
Anybody caught trespassing should be shot in the neck. That’s what we do now.
gravenimage says
Actually, no–Churches don’t do this to trespassers. Where did you get that idea?
Sheila says
Many churches have armed/trained security in the congregation on Sundays.
My church in Minnesota does.
My church in Iowa had an armed county sheriff in attendance every Sunday.
Self-defense and defense of others is Scriptural.
Meek don’t mean weak.
Namer says
Unfortunately the Left in America behave like children raise by a mother who believe every BS thing Dr Spock wrote about raising children. They were never taught any behavior limits and throw tantrums when they dont get their way. These Leftist Nazi thugs (Yes the Nazis are Leftists) need to be held accountable for what they are doing. After serious prison time with hard labor they need to be exported to Portland and San Fran to live in their rat infest utopia. BTW if they want to eat then they have to work.

DHS Tells Catholic Churches to Prepare for ‘Extreme Violence’
……………………………
Just sickening–and this is because the Church has opposed the killing of unborn babies…
GreekEmpress says
My church called in a security analyst, so I hope they followed any recommendations that were made. The church was vandalized during “summer of love-2020” and also twice since.
It’s starting to feel like we have targets on our back.
somehistory says
On the fronts, too. they are so sold as to do anything at this point.
somehistory says
“bold” not sold.
Sheila says
Sold AND bold!
gravenimage says
So sorry to hear that, GreekEmpress. And of course referring to vandalism and violence as “Summer of Love” is appalling–I believe this phrase was first used in Seattle two years ago.
Stay safe,
Wellington says
Seconded.
