Not Worth a Bullet

Eva Edl Not Worth Jail
Eva Edl, an 89-year-old woman, was convicted alongside six others for their involvement in a peaceful pro-life protest outside a reproductive health care clinic in Sterling Heights, Michigan. Despite her advanced age, Edl’s conviction serves as a testament to her unwavering commitment to her beliefs.

Background

Edl’s life has been marked by tragedy and hardship. As a child, she survived a Communist death camp in Yugoslavia, where she and her family were sent as part of a campaign of persecution against the Danube Swabians, a German-speaking minority group. This traumatic experience had a profound impact on her life.

Pro-Life Activism

Edl’s conviction stems from her involvement in a peaceful protest outside a reproductive health care clinic in Michigan. Alongside six others, she was charged with conspiracy against rights and a Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act offense. The evidence presented at trial showed that Edl and the others engaged in non-violent acts, such as sitting in front of clinic entrances or using locks to chain themselves to doors, in an effort to peacefully protest abortion.

Sentencing

Edl and the others face potential sentences of over 10 years in prison and hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines. While some may view their actions as controversial, it is essential to recognize the depth of their commitment to their beliefs and the peaceful nature of their protest.

Conclusion

In light of Eva Edl’s remarkable life story, it is crucial to reevaluate the notion that she is “not worth a bullet.” Her experiences as a survivor of a Communist death camp and her unwavering commitment to her beliefs demonstrate a strength and resilience that deserves our respect and understanding. As we consider the complexities of the FACE Act and the actions of those like Edl, we must prioritize compassion and empathy over punitive measures.

Because of Eva Edl's remarkable story, the Biden/Harris Administration has decided to rather make an example of a 59 year old Grandmother and imprison Heather Idoni, a friend of Eva's. Find out more about Heather Idoni here: https://freeheatheridoni.com/
