FBI raids man's home with 15 to 20 agents pointing guns with shields and the whole works.

Why? Someone at an abortion clinic got in his 12 year old on's face and he shoved him.

The man's lawyer already told police he would come in if they decided to arrest him. The local police had already dropped the case.

There was zero reason to think this man, an established law abiding man with 7 kids, would anything but cooperative.

This is completely about brownshirt politics and intimidating the pro life crowd.

Can't be too careful after J6. Blame the Trumpublican Brownshirts.
 
This is what happens when one doesn't have the sagacity or intellectual chops to verify a story and uses a far right source:

  • Overall, we rate The Blaze strongly Right Biased and Questionable based on the promotion of conspiracy theories and numerous failed fact checks.

As noted in comment #4, there might be more to this story than the slant presented by the Blaze.

BUT, as we know, this story is meant for a certain audience, and we know who that audience is ;)
 
It was better before you added a source.

To enjoy more of Glenn’s masterful storytelling, thought-provoking analysis, and uncanny ability to make sense of the chaos, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.

Pretty sure it's already been established that's not how it happened.

Glenn Beck? I didn't know that asshole still had drooling morons listening to him.

An established law abiding man with 7 kids? Who established that? And since when does the number of kids one has make a difference if he commits a crime? I gather you think a drug dealer with 7 kids couldn't possibly be guilty....because he has 7 kids, right?

Yes theblaze is biased. And has distorted events with spin just like most of the others do.

But I highly doubt the basic facts are off on this one. It would be o credibly rare for this stereotype of a guy to assault a 72 year old with provocation.

I would bet big money when the dust settles he will get off and might have a lawsuit.


And bias checkers have been shown to be biased as well.
 
Bottom line, and nobody has said different, is that this man was the first to go hands on. Nobody has been able to articulate what words exactly entitled this man to put his hands on somebody else. Twice.

So far the facts appear to be

-activist was protesting abortion clinic
-activist shoved clinic escort after claiming he was verbally abusive towards his son
-local feds investigated and dropped case
-Justice Dept charged him with federal felony obstructing a reproductive clinic and sent 20 armed feds to arrest him during which point they pointed guns at his children and he now faces up to 11 years in federal jail.

I would bet the Justice dept settles for some minor charge where he gets community service if the physical part is true. And MSM wont bother to cover the excessive reaction to a local matter, and continue to ignore Ruth Sent Us threatening Supreme Court Judges children.

Why is he bringing his 12 year old to harass women?
 
OP is Holocaust denial. All the other shit in the OP is only there to support that contention.

Mark Houck, a 48-year-old catholic pro-life-activist, was arrested for allegedly assaulting a planned parenthood clinic escort on two occasions. The federal indictment stated that Houck verbally confronted and forcefully shoved the healthcare worker as the latter was trying to escort two patients in October 2021.

The healthcare worker with initials BL is a 72-year-old man who was injured and had to be administered treatment for the same.
The spin from the Blaze:
The FBI recently sent more than a dozen armed agents to the home of well-known pro-life activist Mark Houck to arrest him for allegedly violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances or FACE Act.
Allegedly?? Ummm, no, not allegedly, he DID injury a 72 year old man.

And that whole show of force was done against a man who was not a drug lord, not a mafia boss, but instead, a law-abiding pillar of the community
YIKES, talk about deliberately trying to cue up the outrage. What the Hell does his arrest have to do with drug lords? So next time I get arrested for something, I should run to the media and cry " what about the drug lords? "

Everyone - except the few easily triggered Righties on here - can see what this is all about. Another example of the evil FBI. Another example of how corrupt Merrick Garland is. HOW DARE anyone arrest a "pillar of the community" in such a fashion.

Are you REALLY that easy to sucker in by political slant? Think carefully how you answer. This reflects on you more than on the FBI.

On the flip side, no one has been able to articulate why it was necessary to send armed FBI agents to this man's home early in the morning to arrest this man in front of his family.

He probably had an arrest warrant. Then they followed protocol. Pointing firearms at children would be a violation of policy but I've seen no reason to believe it is anything other than alleged by the parents.

You don't see it questionable to send 20 fbi with guns drawn given What we know, aside from any slant?
 
I find it surprising that the right will be upset about an apprehension that resulted in no injury or loss of life of someone white accused of relatively minor crimes, but then get real quiet when someone black is gunned down by the police also for relatively minor crimes.

No. An arrest warrant is not a justification for sending armed FBI agents to this man's home early in the morning to arrest this man in front of his family. They knew he was represented by counsel. The civil and adult thing to do was to ask him to come to their office.

I agree with the OP, this was yet another disgusting abuse of power by Biden's DOJ that was clearly intended to intimidate those they perceive as political enemies of the administration.

Yes, it is. He put his family in that position. Nobody else.

Or, they can arrest him whenever they want.

Of course it was.

LOL Yup, "the right" are nothing but a gang of racist goons.

Perhaps you'd feel different if it was you targeted by your government.
