Radical Abortion Activists Tried to Firebomb This Pregnancy Center, Thank God They Failed
Police and the FBI are investigating another attempted arson targeting pro-lifers after a Molotov cocktail was found inside a Nashville, Tennessee pregnancy center.
The Nashville Tennessean reports police discovered the firebomb early Thursday inside the Hope Clinic for Women after vandals smashed a window. Police said the incendiary device did not ignite, so there was no fire damage.
The words “Jane’s Revenge,” a reference to a radical pro-abortion group that has been calling for violence, also were spray-painted on the side of the building, the local news reports.
Police said a burglar alarm at the pregnancy center alerted them to the crime around 1:38 a.m. Thursday.
WSMV News reports the FBI and Metro Nashville Police are investigating the crime as attempted arson and vandalism.
Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee, a pro-life Republican, called out the domestic terrorism Thursday as pro-lifers and churches increasingly are targeted across the U.S.

“This is terrorism and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” Lee responded on Twitter. “Stand with us in supporting clinics like Hope Clinic who provide critical resources to Tennessee families.”
Hope Clinic provides free services to pregnant and parenting mothers in need, including counseling, parenting classes, pregnancy tests, ultrasounds, baby supplies, mentoring and help finding housing, food, employment and childcare.

Joy Styles, a member of the board of directors at Hope Clinic, told the local news that they had to cancel their morning appointments, but they re-opened Thursday afternoon.
“We are a place of peace and a place of support,” Styles said. “Today that was disrupted.”
Late last week, a pro-life pregnancy center in Longmont, Colorado, also was set on fire and spray-painted with the threat, “If abortions aren’t safe neither are you.”
Pro-life organizations in Wisconsin, New York and Oregon also have been targets of arson in the past month. And in Los Angeles, an abortion activist is facing attempted murder charges after allegedly trying to burn a police officer with a flamethrower during a pro-abortion protest last week.
The crime wave has many pro-life organizations increasing security and Republican lawmakers demanding action from the Biden administration to crack down on the growing domestic terrorism.
LifeNews has recorded 29 reports of arson and/or vandalism alone since the Supreme Court issued its abortion ruling one week ago. That number does not include assaults, arrests of pro-abortion activists and other incidents since Friday.
Dozens more arsons and vandalisms have been reported since a leaked draft Supreme Court ruling was published in early May.
