Occupiers Not Bothered On Government Property

What has America come to? Occupiers In Washington DC can destroy government property and law enforcement leaves them alone. Six pro-lifers get on their knees and pray. Law enforcement arrests them.

Six people peacefully protested the Obama administration’s mandate requiring employers to provide contraceptives, sterilization, and abortion-producing drugs by kneeling in prayer in front of the White House, and they quickly were arrested and whisked away by U.S. Park police.

"Occupy Wall Street protesters have been occupying federal property for months, but when we kneel in prayer, the police are called in and we are arrested," said Father Wilde, one of the protesters.

Wilde and the other protesters were cited for "failure to obey a lawful order" as they knelt in prayer in front of the White House. Each paid a $100 fine and was released from custody.

Wilde said. "We knew that was the risk when we gathered today, and we will do it again regardless of the risk. What people of faith – of every faith – need to do now is stand with us."

"The so-called ‘accommodation’ offered by the administration does not solve the moral or legal problem employers face, and against which Priests for Life is objecting," he said.

"Moreover, these ‘accommodations’ have not been translated into policy. At this point, they are simply a presidential speech."

He continued, "No matter what religion someone professes, requiring them to instruct their employees how to obtain abortion-inducing drugs – whether this instruction is given by them or someone they hire – is an outrage not to mention an egregious violation of civil rights and constitutional protections."

Priests for Life attorney Charles LiMandri remarked, "This is the first time in history any administration has used brute force to compel someone to violate his conscience or moral convictions."

What will Barack Obama do next to strip Americans of their rights. He has no problem ignoring the Constitution and trampling our rights.
