A United Kingdom army veteran has been charged with a crime for silently praying outside an abortion clinic, despite the fact that police had told him he was “entitled” to do so.
The Bournemouth, Christchurch & Poole (BCP) Council is one of five U.K. councils that have passed ordinances establishing “buffer zones” around abortion clinics. According to Christian Today, “The buffer zone forbids protesting, harassing, intimidating or photographing visitors or staff within 150 [meters] of the abortion clinic. The restrictions cover prayer, counseling and offering information or help to women visiting the clinic.”
