What an outrage. What a disgrace. We should all be furious—and rightly so. In a recent video published by The Daily Wire, 73-year-old Mark Crosby and 84-year-old Dick Schaefer—two elderly men of courage—stood peacefully outside a Planned Parenthood, offering prayerful, non-violent witness. Then came Patrick Brice, who “accused them of bothering ‘vulnerable people’ seconds before violently assaulting them.” What kind of society condones that? I’ll tell you—only a godless one.

This wasn’t protest—it was raw, lawless violence.
A Baltimore judge, in a shocking miscarriage of justice, sentenced Brice to “just one year of home confinement and three years of probation.” That’s it—for smashing the face of a 73-year-old and fracturing an 84-year-old, both defending the unborn? Disgraceful. This isn’t justice. This isn’t mercy. This is evil given a free pass.
God’s Word commands us: “Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed” (Psalm 82:3). These men were standing for the most defenseless of all—the unborn. And what did the court do? Reward the attacker with a slap on the wrist. Scripture warns us: “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good” (Romans 12:21). But our justice system has failed to live up to that truth.
Yes, Trump defunded Planned Parenthood, sending a strong message for life. Yet abortion numbers keep climbing—fueled by the rise of the abortion pill. The war on the unborn rages on. That’s why pro-life witnesses like Crosby and Schaefer are so vital. They stood their ground until they were beaten to the ground. And the man who attacked them walked away without spending a day in prison. That’s not justice—that’s betrayal.
This is more than an outrage—it’s a scar on our courts and proof of our nation’s moral collapse.
Violence against peaceful pro-life citizens must bring swift and severe consequences, not a cushy sentence at home. We serve a God who gives life, and those who fight for it stand on the right side of eternity. “Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow” (Isaiah 1:17).
We must not be silent. We will not back down. We will stand—fierce and unshaken—for life, for truth, and for those the world would rather silence… for Jesus Christ.
