Left-wing politicians in Britain are demanding jail time for Christians who recite Bible verses or pray near abortion clinics in that country.
Under current legislation, Christians who do this currently can face fines, there is push to also include a six-month jail time as part of the penalty.
Breitbart explains:
Christians who are caught “praying”, “reciting scripture”, or “crossing themselves” near an abortion centre could be sentenced to up to six months in jail in the United Kingdom.
British officials are pushing to have Christians who practice their faith too close to abortion centres jailed under revamped crackdown rules aimed at curbing protests against the practice.
Under current legislation, it can already be an offence to “audibly pray” within so-called “Safe Zones” established around some abortion centres, with those running afoul of the rules liable for a fine of up to £1,000 (~$1,100).
