80 yr old, faithful, Catholic Priest, arrested at ND supporting Church's position on abortion

A faithful, 80 year-old Catholic Priest is arrested at Notre Dame for seeking to support the Catholic position on abortion.

VIDEO OF 80 YEAR OLD PRIEST BEING ARRESTED

God bless this priest.

Watch this...and read this...and weep for our nation.

And then take hope. This is exactly what huge numbers of Americans need to do on many, many issues if we are to turn around the conditions in this nation.

The left has practiced it for decades and shamed, cowed, and manipulated traditional Americans into letting our birthrights be walked on.

It is time we stood up and turned it around in numbers they never imagined.

IT WORKED IN KLAMATH...IT CAN WORK NOW

Already posted and in a sidebar. But, this deserves as much exposure as possible.

Send it to everyone you can think of. On the other thread, it was mentioned to send it to Drudge.

Amen!. Drudge, Beck, Hannity, Limbaugh...all of them should see and show this video.

Sad day for our nation...but a hopeful one if we realize that if millions of us stand up, all over this country, we can make a difference.

Similar post about the same event here: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2252208/posts

Lets make this viral folks!! We are up to 1,700 views from just 300 this morning.

Cross post to all your boards, send to all your friends and family and have THEM view it and forward it!!

When I had a chance to sit and watch the whole thing I was in tears by the end. As should be everyone who loves life and Christ.

I usually support police, but they acted like thugs this time.

Yes, ND is private property and they have the right to legally enforce trespassing laws. But isn’t it supposed to be a Catholic place of Higher Learning? To have a PRIEST arrested? And for supporting Official Catholic Doctrine?

Dear God, where is the Pope? Where is Decency? Where is Morality?

God bless him...God bless all that stand up to these horrors.

I hope tomorrow that thousands of people in attendance stand up and turn their backs to Obama when he speaks.

Exactly, arrested at a Catholic University for supporting the official Catholic position.

I have posted on FaceBook too and folks are watching...all of us should give this as much exposure as possible.

Well I watched that video, Jeff, and I am weeping. I am just sick. Wonder if Father Jenkins will ever see this...I pray he does. And soon.

This is the stuff of a culture in distress and it is time to take a stand against depravity and as Patr. ick Moynihan called it---the defining of deviancy down.

Jeff......Obama is a radical. In every way. His pro-abortion stance goes way bey ond sucking a few week old infant out of a mother's womb-his pro abortion stance includes partial birth...where the baby is murdered inside mom up until the TIME OF BIRTH (talk about TORTURE) and in Obama's case, the desire to legally kill a baby who survives an abortion, is born and breathing on his or her own. To kill the child by administering NO CARE-no warmth, food, no ANYTHING.

I also found myself with vile feelings toward these cops who are either complicit henchmen or moral cowards of the worst sort for not simply refusing the order to arrest this man of God. I have sent the link to all I know. It may be too much to hope, but Bishop Darcy needs to let this university go and force it to stop calling itself “Catholic”.

Isn't there a thread running on FR today that has the emails of many of the priests and bishops associated with this Notre Dame filthy invitation...men who are opposed to obama polluting this grand university with this totally cold and evil-like stance against the little ones still growing inside their mothers?

It would be great to get this video to them...many will never see it.

I think most WILL see it, especially those clergy most closely associated with this situation. But it should be forwarded far and wide in any case. The cops involved are as much a disgrace to the uniform as Jenkins is a disgrace to his clerical collar. America condemns itself and some phony “priest” makes the Sign of the Cross over it all.

Correct all around.

We can make a difference. We did so at Klamath, we did so at the NYC Flag Raising Memorial, we did so at Harbidge, and so many other places. We can do so now with Obama.

...in fact, can we do no less?

Here's another GREAT link to pass around:

The policemen SHOULD have requested that Father JENKINS show his sorry self and provide all present with the reason for this aged priest’s arrest.

They could make the request, of course, as a gesture which would be ignored, but after that they would have to just refuse any part in it. I have no respect whatsoever for any of those involved on the side of either the university or law enforcement. And that pains me.

Funny, but I’d have to look up how to FIND CNN on my TV. I never tune it in. I can tell you how to find Law&Order, CSI, NCIS, etc. re-runs, though.

Good afternoon my FRiend.

I watched the video. To most of us here, it's obvious. We know where we get our rights. Heck, you and I have posted the same on FR for ten years or more.

The sad thing is, whether it's an 80 year old Catholic priest protesting infanticide, or an 80 year old grandmother trying to get on an airplane, our government has forgotten it is God whom gives us our rights, not some bureaucrats in DC.

I hope I am wrong, but methinks CWII will make CWI look like a walk in the park on a warm spring day.
