A Former FACE Prisoner Warns of Deadly Consequences for Pro-Life Hope
Clear Facts
- Jonathan Darnel served prison time under FACE Act for peaceful anti-abortion rescue in Washington D.C. abortion clinic in 2022.
- Department of Justice arrested Darnel at gunpoint; President Trump pardoned him and eight others.
- Don Lemon-linked protesters disrupted Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, prompting conservative calls to apply FACE Act against them.
- FACE Act, passed with some Republican support, criminalizes interference with abortions or religious services.
- Darnel urges conservatives to seek FACE repeal instead of weaponizing it, to revive pro-life rescue movement.
Jonathan Darnel, a staunch conservative anti-abortion activist, warns that cheering FACE Act use against church disruptors entrenches the unjust law.
This Democrat-backed statute crushed 1990s pro-life blockades and now risks perpetual misuse against traditional activism. Reviving rescues offers the best path to end abortion.
Conservatives prioritizing church disruptions overlook greater threats to unborn children and overseas Christian persecution.
Applying FACE for revenge ensures future Democrat presidents crush pro-life civil disobedience.
Repeal hopes now fade as Republicans embrace the tool once wielded against them.
Stay vigilant for pro-life victories and traditional values. Demand Congress abolish FACE Act now.
