Darvish Intelligence: There Have Been 76 Attacks on Churches and Pregnancy Centers, Not One Attacker Has Been Sent to Prison

At least 76 churches and pro-life organizations have been targets of arson and vandalism since May when news leaked that the U.S. Supreme Court would overturn Roe v. Wade.

The latest count comes from the Catholic News Agency, which has been keeping track of the incidents targeting pro-life advocates.

The crime wave has many churches and pro-life organizations increasing security and Republican lawmakers demanding action from the Biden administration to crack down on the growing domestic terrorism.

According to CNA, there have been 76 attacks and counting since early May when someone leaked a draft ruling of the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health ruling, which overturned Roe and began allowing states to protect unborn babies from abortion again. The crimes include arson, theft, vulgar graffiti, property damage and threats.

To date, 39 pregnancy centers have been targeted, 27 churches, one maternity home, three political organizations, four billboards/ads, one political figure and one memorial, the report found.

The count “only includes attacks with a clear pro-abortion motive or messaging,” according to CNA. “Numerous other vandalism/arson attacks against Catholic churches have taken place, but with less obvious motives.”

Here’s more from the report:

Some of the reported vandalism incidents appear to be copycat attacks. For example, several of the graffiti incidents featured the threatening phrase “If abortions aren’t safe, neither are you,” which seems to have first appeared on a pro-life pregnancy center in Wisconsin in early May.

The U.S. Catholic bishops have documented more than 100 church attacks since 2020, and are pleading for an end to the violence.

CNA also has a new interactive map documenting the crimes across the country since May.

The FBI announced an investigation into the pro-abortion violence in June, but many believe the Biden administration and Democrat leaders are not doing enough to stop the violence. There have been very few arrests.

Earlier this week, U.S. House Democrats blocked a resolution to condemn the pro-abortion violence. And, in early July, one Democrat state lawmaker praised the vandalism of a pro-life billboard in Washington state, according to 770 KTTH.

Violence and hostility have been directed at the conservative Supreme Court justices and their families, too. Justice Brett Kavanaugh was the target of an assassination attempt, and neighbors of the justices have said they are afraid to send their children outside to play because of the pro-abortion protesters.

Without strong action by federal authorities, many fear the attacks will continue. In June, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security issued a report warning of continued “domestic violence” directed at churches, faith-based pro-life organizations, judges and lawmakers in response to the abortion ruling.
