Or maybe it was just a coincidence?
Pro-abortion vandals set fire to the Madison headquarters of the pro-life Wisconsin Family Action some time before 6 this Mother’s Day Sunday morning, at the 2800 block of International Lane. The Madison Police Department is investigating Sunday morning’s fire at an office building on the city’s north side as an arson.
A molotov cocktail, which did not ignite, was thrown inside the building. It also appears a separate fire was started in response. Graffiti was also found at the scene. No injuries reported. The HDQ was also inscribed with an anti-cop slogan. Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes issued a statement regarding the arson investigation, which can be read here. Madison police say federal investigators have been briefed on this act of terrorism. More reportage here.

“But we feel that any acts of violence, including the destruction of property, do not aid in any cause.”
What a weak statement from the Chief. Not that it’s illegal, or potentially puts life and limb at risk. The issue is it did not aid the cause.
There are no adults in the room in Madison, WI.
That quoted statement caught my eye too, and “weak,” etc. was precisely my thought.
Re: the photo above —
The handwriting suggests a “biological” female, the spelling and grammar are correct (suggesting a professor? graduate assistant?).
Yep. Someone(s) should be in custody very soon, provided local, state and federal LE get off their hind ends and act.
Kind of sad to think that the only people capable of using correct grammar and spelling these days must be college-educated. But then look at who’s in charge of Madison schools where CRT is more important than learning how to write–or read, or calculate, or think.
This happened within very close proximity to:
– the Madison Airport
– Air National Guard bar
– Army National Guard Army
– North District police station
Now, is it expecting too much for there to be high-quality camera footage of this terrorist attack?
How about location-based device tracking?
With the enormous amounts of government money invested in protecting potential terrorist targets (like civilian airports and military installations) I expect to see some progress made ASAP on nabbing the terrorists.
“Briefing the Feds” and lukewarm “this isn’t appropriate” statements from liberal flunkies is not it.
Grr. That second item should’ve read Air NG *base*! And the 3rd one was supposed to be Army National Guard *Armory*.
Let me know if there’s a cleanup party to wash off the graffiti.
Nice to see Madison.com brings up the Appleton Planned Parenthood fire bombing from 2012. If caught I wonder if the arsonist here will get 11 years in prison? Don’t hold your breath.
Madison.com’s headline screamed that Wisconsin Family Action is an Anti-Abortion Headquarters.”
Think they’ll refer to Pro-Choice terrorist thugs as Anti-Life PsOS?
Neither does The Gotch.
The WSJ’s slimed aport ever since the rarely funny/always needle-d!cked Phil Hands assumed a greater presence on the editorial board.

The “both sides do it” play.
If America had an actual unbiased media to report on this, the world might just find out that the majority of political ideological violence is perpetrated by the Left.
Exactly. It’s not even close. The last few years alone we have seen literally hundreds of riots and terror attacks including arson, destruction of government buildings and private businesses, and assaults on people.
Every time something happens that they don’t like, whether it’s a rightful appointment to the Supreme Court, or a criminal fighting the police, or whatever it might be, the Left immediately engages in violence and assault.
For the past several years it has been hundreds of incidents in multiple chapters of an ongoing insurrection, you might say.
but, but, but, they are just responding to the fascist right, so that makes it ok.
I’d bet it was a highly educated Progressive woman. She failed to successfully use a devise with zero moving parts.
Also great penmanship.
And cursive so she went to Catholic schools.
Mark: It’s “device”, not “devise.” Are you threatened by educated women?
This just in from Captain non sequitor. (sic)
You’re right. I did post a non-sequitur.
As this topic heats up I predict you will see more and more demonstrations and violence especially right before a decision is announced. I hope that the justices all have really great personal protection as I would suspect that their might be a few crazies out there who would want to cause harm to one of the justices that would vote to repeal the Roe and Casey decisions and hand the matter back to the states.
Domestic terrorists, every last one of them involved, just like those in the summer 2020 riots. Law enforcement needs to treat them as such.
And harassing/intimidating Justices at their homes is blatantly illegal! Where are the Feds now?
Yes, there is an explicit citation in federal code prohibiting the types of intimidation that they are planning…such as protesting in front of a Supreme Court Justice’s home for political purposes.
They have been doing it for days now! Alito and his family have had to relocate from their own home due to threats. Other Justices have 24/7 protection now that the Left doxxed them and people have been protesting at their homes. This is a federal crime! How is this tolerated?
Shit storm’s coming.
Wonder what the Chief’s statement would have been, had it been Urban Triage or Freedom from Religion offices instead?
Let’s grab a few Molotov cocktails and find out!
FYI – The ATF takes comments like these very seriously.
You say: “Pro-abortion vandals set fire to the Madison headquarters of the pro-life Wisconsin Family Action…”. Maybe.
Beware the false flag.
Maybe is right. This could still turn out to be the work of classic Wisconsin frat boys.
Any word on nooses, bleach, or partially eaten Subway Tuna samitchs…?

Good point. Madison is MAGA country for sure! Somehow Trump and his henchmen are behind this.
In the United States, violence directed towards abortion providers has killed at least eleven people, including four doctors, two clinic employees, a security guard, a police officer, two people (unclear of their connection), and a clinic escort.
Since 1977 in the United States and Canada, there have been 17 attempted murders, 383 death threats, 153 incidents of assault or battery, 13 wounded, 100 butyric acid stink bomb attacks, 373 physical invasions, 41 bombings, 655 anthrax threats, and 3 kidnappings committed against abortion providers.
Property crimes committed against abortion providers have included 41 bombings, 173 arsons, 91 attempted bombings or arsons, 619 bomb threats, 1630 incidents of trespassing, 1264 incidents of vandalism, and 100 attacks with butyric acid (“stink bombs”). The New York Times also cites over one hundred clinic bombings and incidents of arson, over three hundred invasions, and over four hundred incidents of vandalism between.
The first hoax letters claiming to contain anthrax were mailed to U.S. clinics in October 1998, a few days after the shooting of Barnett Slepian; since then, there have been 655 such bioterror threats made against abortion providers. None of the “anthrax” in these cases was real.
After the genuine 2001 anthrax attacks, Clayton Waagner mailed hoax letters containing a white powder to 554 clinics. On December 3, 2003, Waagner was convicted of 51 charges relating to the anthrax scare.
any acts of violence, including the destruction of property, do not aid in any cause
David,
I’m in agreement with you that any violence of any type is wrong. Including to those who work in abortion clinics. Violence does not resolve issues.
Compare the 11 people who were murdered, as you stated, ” including four doctors, two clinic employees, a security guard, a police officer, two people (unclear of their connection), and a clinic escort.”, to the average number of homicides each year in Dane County by car accidents when most of those accidents were caused by drinking and speed.
That average is 24 people out of 33 people per year who died in car accidents caused by drinking or speed. More than two times the number of abortionists, clinic workers or security murdered at or around abortion clinics since 1973.
https://www.nbc15.com/2022/03/14/dane-co-officials-report-unprecedented-number-fatal-crashes-involving-multiple-factors/
That in 49 years 11 people who were connected to abortion clinics were murdered. While every year there are on average of 24 vehicular homicides just in Dane County WI.
Again, in my mind there is no excuse for violence, but I do like to keep things in perspective.
As for me, I do like to pray for abortionists. After all, there are a number of former abortionists who have had a change of heart and became spokes people for the pro-life movement. They include:
Dr. Patti Giebink
Dr. Grant Clark
Dr. George Flesh
Dr. Kathi Aultman
Dr. Anthony Levatino
Dr. Bernard N. Nathanson,
Former clinic director Abby Johnson and many other former clinic workers.
Google anyone of them and hear their testimonies as to what they did and witnessed while being a clinic worker or an abortionist.
Why not list all the people killed by the pro-life side. clinics and patients attacked. Many of the people you list changed their minds to avoid being murdered.
Right now the pols are checking the polls. Majorities are OK with France (and Mississippi’s) abortion laws that OK it up to the end of the first trimester. The Left will again be shocked at how few agree with taxpayer funded unlimited abortion.
