Were you aware of this Christian persecution in America?

This is ridiculous. There is a statute of limitations on misdemeanor charges, especially trespassing.
However, this is a small example of what pro-life Christians have dealt with for 30 + years.
This woman does, indeed, exist. I've known her since 1992. She lives across the street from the man who runs the Missionaries to the Unborn web site.
The original charge was for trespassing. Back when this "offense" originally occurred, that was the standard charge given to pro-lifers who went on the abortuary property. She did not "skip bail" or any such thing. In the past, these charges have been routinely dismissed after a short time, as the cities know that these are misdemeanors, akin to traffic offenses.
She was arrested in Grove City, Pa., but the warrant was issued by Paoli, Pa., across the state from Grove City/Philly.
She was held without benefit of seeing a lawyer for 4 days. She has since been transferred to the Chester, Pa. facility.
For Pln: In the 18 years I've been interceding for the mothers and their children, I've never once seen a mother spat upon OR hit by any pro-lifer. I know this is a common canard perpetrated by pro-abortion people, but it is simply not true.
For maranatha132: This is an example of what has been going on in our country for several years. Pastors have been arrested for preaching the Gospel from street corners. Others have been physically assaulted for preaching the Word. In the mid-1990s, a church in Mn. was sued by the IRS for tithe money given to it by a couple that allegedly owed back taxes.
On the same web site that carried this story, is the recounting of how a pastor, his wife & 9 of his 11 children are being thrown out of their home due to a lawsuit from Planned Parenthood.
