WATCH: Pro-Abortion Handmaiden Attacks Pro-Life Advocate, Tries to Destroy Her Sign

A new video shows a California pro-life leader being attacked by an abortion activist on Monday outside St. Mary’s Cathedral in San Francisco.

Kristin Turner, executive director of Pro-Life San Francisco, said an abortion activist grabbed her sign and threw it, shoved her and pushed a bullhorn into her face before private security intervened. The video shows a portion of the altercation.

The video posted by Pro-Life San Francisco shows an abortion activist dressed in a red Handmaid’s Tale costume walking up behind Turner and grabbing her pro-life sign from behind. Two security guards intervene, telling the abortion activist to stop before she walks away.

Earlier, several abortion activists dressed as Handmaids entered the church and disrupted the Mass before security removed them, according to the pro-life organization. They continued to protest outside the cathedral, and that is when Turner said they became violent.

“At around 11:30 they entered the church and approached the altar before being stopped by private security,” she told LifeNews. “They screamed at churchgoers that ‘banning abortion is female enslavement.’”

After being physically escorted out by security, she said the abortion activists gathered on the steps of the cathedral to make a show for the local news media.

“I walked in front of their group with my sign, which is when they started to attack me,” Turner continued. “They took my sign and threw it multiple times, shoved me, pushed my bullhorn into my face, etc. Private security then broke the group up and they started doing speakouts on the sidewalk in front of the courtyard.”

Turner, a pro-life leftist and atheist, said she and other pro-lifers tried to engage in a peaceful dialogue with some of the abortion activists, but, when it proved unproductive, they left.

“They believe that this type of behavior will scare pro-life activists away from standing for life. But they are dead wrong,” Turner said. “Every time they assault, we are only more emboldened to end their anti-life agenda!”

Across the world, abortion activists are growing increasingly aggressive and violent.

Within the past two months alone, LifeNews reported about abortion activists throwing smoke bombs at pro-life students in Texas and a man allegedly threatening pro-life advocates with a metal bar outside an abortion facility in Nebraska. In New York City, abortion activists screamed profanities at young children and families leaving a pro-life Mass at St. Patrick’s Cathedral and projected disgusting pro-abortion messages onto a prominent Catholic Church in Washington, D.C. In Mississippi, they vandalized a pro-life billboard.
