How big US cities are preparing for protests after Roe v. Wade is overturned
Police departments in major cities across the country were monitoring extremist groups as they prepared for potential violent protests Friday over the Roe v. Wade ruling.
New York City cops braced for a long night with beefed-up patrols as pro-abortion protesters planned to gather in Washington Square and Union Square in Manhattan on Friday night.
In Dallas, Texas, workers boarded up windows on a federal building downtown and were seen putting fencing around the perimeter as one social-media group urged protesters to avoid posting pictures online and to “wear a mask and nondescript clothing.”
The pro-abortion radical group Jane’s Revenge, which has already claimed responsibility for arson attacks and vandalism since the leak of the draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade, published a letter last week declaring “open season” on pro-life pregnancy crisis centers.
“We were unsurprised to see thirty days come and thirty days pass with no sign of consilience or even bare-minimum self-reflection from you,” the letter, dated June 14, reads, Fox News reported.
“History may not repeat itself, but it certainly rhymes, and we’ve already seen such stanzas where medical autonomy is stripped away, humanity is increasingly criminalized, and merely surviving becomes largely untenable.”
The letter described how “easy and fun it is to attack” and vowed to take “increasingly drastic measures against oppressive infrastructures.”
In New York, NYPD officers were preparing “enhanced patrols” including at “abortion alternative clinics,” to thwart attacks from “extremists and malicious actors,” according to a memo sent by the NYPD’s intelligence bureau Wednesday that outlined their plan should the ruling be overturned.
“NYPD Intelligence Bureau personnel have observed threat actors espousing a range of violent ideologies — including single-issue extremism, anti-government/anti-fascist extremism, and racially/ethnically motivated violent extremism,” the memo states.
“[They are] leverag[ing] social media posts and virtual communication forums to encourage violent and unlawful activity in response to the leaked draft and upcoming ruling.”
Intelligence officers said pro-abortion extremist organizations are expected to “target abortion alternative clinics and facilities across the US” and may view Big Apple institutions as “ideologically justifiable targets.”
