Abortion Madness: England Plans to Outlaw Crossing Oneself
England is going to introduce national oppression zones around abortion clinics.
This will have implications far wider than abortion and may criminalise Catholics who simply stand near an abortion clinic.
MPs voted on October 18 for an amendment imposing up to six months in jail for people who approach abortion mothers on their way to killing their children.
“We’re talking about people who are just trying to raise awareness about support available to women facing difficult pregnancies with nowhere else to turn to,” Conservative MP Sir Edward Leigh said who voted against the proposal, “We’re going to criminalise these grandmothers but so much of the Just Stop Oil people walk free.”
The bill still has several stages to clear before becoming law. However, Bournemouth has already set up a oppression zone for six streets around the abortion clinic.
A sign (below) forbids on penalty of £100 to hold vigils where participants "audibly pray, recite scripture, genuflect, sprinkle holy water on the ground or cross themselves" when they see an abortion mother passing by.
