Far-left extremist group “Jane’s Revenge” is now being investigated by Nebraska law enforcement after they sent threatening letters to a Catholic-affiliated center and a Christian church.
The group has been linked to vandalism, firebombings, and arson at pregnancy centers across the country. Their slogan states, “if abortions aren’t safe, neither are you.”
A note found outside the John Paul II Newman Center near the University of Nebraska-Omaha’s Scott Campus said that they would shoot up the center if an abortion ban passed in the state.
“If our right to abortion in Bellevue is taken away due to the attempt to pass an abortion ban and its gets passed we will shoot up your Newman Center with our new AR-14 rifles. Sincerely, Jane’s Revenge,” the note said.
Students for Life president Kristan Hawkins posted a photo of the note on Twitter.
Another note was found at the Christ Community Church in Omaha.
“Friends, earlier today, CCC staff found a threatening note taped to an outside door at CCC. The note claims to be from the abortion rights extremist group, Jane’s Revenge, and makes threats against our Lead Minister and the church relating to an abortion policy discussion taking place in the City of Bellevue,” Christ Community Church said in a message to members on Sunday.
“At least one other Omaha church received a similar letter. We take the threats seriously and filed a report with the City of Omaha Police Department, and are cooperating with their ongoing investigation,” the message continued, according to a report from Fox News.
A spokesperson for the Omaha Police Department told Fox News Digital on Sunday that “we responded to a report of a threatening note left at Christ Community Church, and are currently investigating.”
In a manifesto posted by Jane’s Revenge on June 15, the group vowed to escalate their attacks. They also took credit for arsons and vandalism at pregnancy centers in “Madison WI, Ft. Collins CO, Reisertown MA, Olympia WA, Des Moines IA, Lynwood WA, Washington DC, Ashville NC, Buffalo NY, Hollywood FL, Vancouver WA, Frederick MA, Denton TX, Gresham OR, Eugene OR, Portland OR, among others.”
They stated, “we promised to take increasingly drastic measures against oppressive infrastructures. Rest assured that we will, and those measures may not come in the form of something so easily cleaned up as fire and graffiti.”
“From here forward, any anti-choice group who closes their doors, and stops operating will no longer be a target. But until you do, it’s open season, and we know where your operations are,” the post stated. “Through attacking, we find joy, courage, and strip the veneer of impenetrability held by these violent institutions.”
The FBI announced on June 17 that they are investigating the attacks as “potential acts of domestic violent extremism.”
Catholic Vote is tracking the attacks on churches and pregnancy centers since the draft opinion leaked in early May.
Pregnancy centers offer free medical and financial support to pregnant women while providing them with information on options other than abortion. Pro-abortion activists claim that the crisis pregnancy centers “trick” women into not aborting their babies because their physicians do not offer the procedure.
