In Matthew 24:9, Christ tells His followers that those obey His commands will be persecuted and hated by many people for doing so.
Earlier this month, this truth became sadly apparent, when an intern for pro-life group Created Equal was physically and verbally abused when holding a poster emblazoned with the image of a detailed fetus at 12 weeks in Columbus, Ohio.
Pro-life activist Seth Drayer, who is director of training at Created Equal and the youth minister at Trinity Evangelical church, told Fox News that he was filming an intern named Ian holding the poster when a woman named Victoria Duran accosted him.

Luke 6:28
Good for them! I hope they don’t press charges and she learns something.
Victoria Duran is a total piece of pond scum. She deserves to be prosecuted. If she’d accosted me, I would file charges on her so fast it would make her head spin.
Yes, we can bless them and pray to Jesus for them, but once it gets physical, then we are in virgin territory. I don't think "turn the other cheek" applies to physical assaults. There is persecution of Christians in America, and later, it might get a lot worse, but I think it hasn't gotten REALLY physical yet, because these dirt bags know many Christians are well armed, and might resist, when they try to haul us off to the camps.
She’s obviously unbalanced and needs to be locked up in a psych ward or prison.
What’s wrong with a Christian pressing charges?
That is what I would do, while praying for them. I just do not intend to let them attempt murder. I believe most of those dirt bags would like to do that. Whether they can or not, is another issue, but they want to.
I guess I’m just amazed that people think Christians shouldn’t press charges for crimes committed against them.
Me too, but here is another issue. We can never count on the powers that be, to actually prosecute them. Remember, there are probably lots of chumps out there, like Eric Holder, who might deliberately refuse to hold them accountable.
Man, if I had posted that I’d contact the Admins to have it deleted.
Wow. Most of the “conservatives” on this thread are pathetic.
The biggest problem we have in this country is the criminalization of everyday life. “OOOOH, let’s have the government destroy someone who was mean to me!!!” That’s how we wound up the world’s biggest police state with out of control cops and government agencies.
This psycho woman should be held accountable if she damaged the kids’ property. She should not be charged with assault and go through life tagged as a violent felon for her embarrassing temper tantrum. Plus, to charge her would be an abuse of the cops, the courts, and taxpayers.
In the America I grew up in, we didn’t run to Momma (the government). You’d deal with her the way these kids did, or give it right back to her in spades. These kids were smart. Smarter than I probably would’ve been.
