Molotov Attack Against Anti-Abortion Group Family Action in Madison, Wisconsin

 

The headquarters of an anti-abortion group in Madison, Wis., was set on fire on Sunday morning in a Molotov attack by anarchists. The building was tagged with graffiti that read “If abortions aren’t safe then you aren’t either,” along with a circle-A and “1312” (the numerical code for ACAB).

The fire burned part of a wall. Two windows were also smashed in the attack.

The attack came nearly a week after the leak of a draft ruling by the Supreme Court that would overturn Roe v. Wade, the decision that established a constitutional right to abortion.

The leak has made clear that as the United States’ judicial system veers even further into enacting openly fascist, white supremacist and patriarchal legal restrictions, only revolutionary militant action can defend oppressed communities.
