On today's episode of Human Events Daily, host Jack Posobiec discussed the recent attacks on pro-life centers across the country by the radical pro-abortion group, "Jane's Revenge."
"It does seem like now this is a movement that is breaking out nationwide," Posobiec said, "it is taking up the reigns from the Antifa movement and what they're doing is they're conducting attacks on pro-life centers. Places where people are fighting to be able to achieve pro-life in their state."
In May, pro-life organization Wisconsin Family Action was set ablaze by a molotov cocktail. Immediately after Jane's Revenge posted their first communiqué in which they said "war has been upon us for decades" and "this was only a warning. We demand the disbanding of all anti-choice establishments, fake clinics and violent anti-choice groups within the next 30 days."
Posobiec points out that the group's origins go back to the 1960's, but says "it doesn't seem like they were violent in the 1960s." He goes on to explain that they were more akin to an underground railroad for abortions before Roe V Wade was passed in 1972.
"They're starting the fight early," Posobiec says, "and they're taking the fight directly to the pro-life movement."
In Wisconsin the group graffitied the phrase "if abortions aren't safe then you aren't either" on the wall of the building. That sentence is one of a few rote sayings the group uses to mark its attacks.
This week multiple attacks have accumulated. In Buffalo, New York pro-life center CompassCare was firebombed and the words "Jane was here" were spray-painted. In Asheville, North Carolina pro-life clinic Mountain Area Pregnancy Services was vandalized and again the words "if abortions aren't safe then you aren't either" were spray-painted along with the anarchist symbol and the slogan "no forced births."
Posobiec notes that the group is coordinated but decentralized, tactics previously employed by Antifa, and is constituted of "anarchists and violent radicals."
The group itself's insurgency was sparked in May directly after it was leaked that the Supreme Court was set to overturn Roe V Wade. Jane's Revenge has continued to spread their communiqués with the most recent calling for a "Night of Rage where they write "on the night the final ruling is issued — a specific date we cannot yet predict, but we know is arriving imminently — we are asking for courageous hearts to come out after dark."
A search of #JanesRevenge on Twitter shows that the group has attacked or vandalized many more pro-life organizations, such as Hollywood, California's Respect Life Hollywood and a Catholic pro-life center in Florida.
