  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

The pro-life activist who was assaulted and left bloodied during a street interview on abortion condemned Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office for failing to prosecute the New York woman who punched her in the face.

Savannah Craven Antao called it “simply irresponsible” for the office to have allowed her assailant, 30-year-old Brianna J. Rivers, to escape criminal consequences, noting that the attack was caught on video.

“My attacker, Brianna Rivers, is part of the rising culture of anti-Christian and anti-conservative violence on the left, and she needs to face accountability for her own good and as a lesson to others," Craven Antao told The Christian Post.

New York police arrested Rivers earlier this year after the video of her striking Craven Antao went viral. Craven Antao was filming a "woman on the street" interview in New York City in April for the pro-life group Live Action at the time of the assault.

In the interview Rivers shows much of the problem when she says that it's "only an embryo". People don't understand that it's a human life in the early stages of development. They think that they haven't done anything wrong because an embryo isn't important or alive.

So sad.
