Vandals smashed the window of a devout Christian’s home after he displayed an anti-abortion poster.

William Astor, 63, said he was targeted shortly after putting up a poster reading ‘pray to end abortion’ at his home in Nottingham.

Mr Astor, who was an atheist for 35 years, claimed a ‘missile’ was thrown which damaged one pane of the double-glazed window.

His lounge windows also feature a picture of ‘Our Lady of Guadalupe’ – the Catholic title of the Virgin Mary – and a poster of a ‘merciful Jesus’ in his lounge windows.

He said: ‘I went for the March for Life in May because I feel our society is doing wrong by aborting hundreds of thousands of babies. ‘When I got back I wanted to make people aware so I put up the poster which said ‘pray to end abortion’.

‘I think it could have been religiously motivated. Violence is not the answer to life’s problems.

‘People tend to follow primitive instincts but that’s not what Jesus taught us.

These are not just “vandals”. They are criminals damaging someone’s private property.

Get them, lock them up for a very long time. They deserve it and it may discourage others

I have said this before that the baby murderers and their supporters will kill so they have the right to kill. They will not let anyone defy them in the least.
