Catholic League President Bill Donohue condemned the vandalism to Notre Dame de Lourdes Roman Catholic Church in Swarthmore, Pennsylvania.
Vandals spray-painted a pro-abortion message on three glass front doors of the church on Sunday. The message read: "You do not have the right to decide what people can do, #ProChoice." The same words also were painted on the side wall of the church,
In an emailed statement, Donohue said: “This is the kind of hate speech we have come to expect in an environment where the abortion-happy Hollywood elite are promoting retaliation against pro-life Christians,” he said. “Swarthmore enjoys a liberal-left reputation, one that is a safe haven for pro-abortion activists. It's a sure bet the vandals didn't take a bus from Philly to desecrate the church.”
