Abortion Activists say Disruption of Mass a "Legitimate Political Act"

Country: Spain

Date of incident: September 27, 2016


Two and a half years after a pro-abortion group burst into the parish of San Miguel in Palma de Mallorca during Mass shouting "take your rosaries out of our ovaries" and shouts in favor of "free abortion," they have refused to come to an agreement with the diocese that would avoid a trial.

A meeting was convened by Bishop Sebastia Taltavull, who asked them to admit that their protest was an "not appropriate action." The activists did not admit to this, and instead defended the "legitimacy" of their actions. "It was a conscious and ideological action" and "we will not recant," said Sonia Domenech, spokesman for the group.
