Abortion activists disrupted a pro-life organization’s virtual graduation ceremony last week by hacking into the video and displaying pornography and Nazi images to the students.
Students for Life of America hosted the event May 20 with OANN’s Liz Wheeler. Breitbart reports someone hacked into their broadcast and showed graphic gay pornography and Nazi images to more than 100 pro-life students in what is being called a “Zoom bomb.”
SFLA President Kristan Hawkins said her organization is filing reports with the FBI and police.
“During the graduation events, hackers stole another memory from students and seized control of the broadcast, sending pornographic images, which were graphic, upsetting, and used Nazi imagery and other offensive displays,” Hawkins said in a statement.
Pro-life students with her organization frequently are targets of vandalism, harassment and threats, and Hawkins said they will not be intimidated.
“At a graduation celebration where we were discussing the challenges we face in this moment, these hackers proved the point that the pro-life generation has to be resilient and ready to face obstacles, including the real ugliness and disregard for women that abortion advocates like this have,” she said.
According to Breitbart, someone also “Zoom bombed” an Oklahoma City University virtual graduation ceremony earlier this month. Because of the coronavirus shutdowns, many are using online video conferencing services for meetings and events.
Wheeler said the harassment will not stop pro-lifers from fighting for life.

“This is what pro-abortion advocates do. They refuse to debate,” she wrote on Twitter. “They refuse to recognize the dignity of life. Satan attacks that which threatens him the most. You know what threatens Satan? Courageous young people standing up for LIFE, being a voice for the most vulnerable.”
Violence by pro-abortion activists has become increasingly common. LifeNews.com recorded more than 100 reports of assault, vandalism, harassment and other incidents in 2019. LifeNews began tracking these reports after pro-life organizations expressed alarm about an uptick in violence in recent years.
