Former British Army Reservist Adam Smith-Connor is preparing to face criminal charges next week for committing “thoughtcrimes” while quietly praying near an abortion clinic location in the U.K. last November.

Body camera footage from last November allegedly shows British police approaching Smith-Connor and questioning the “nature” of his prayers near the British Pregnancy Advisory Service abortion clinic in Bournemouth, England. When Smith-Connor answered that he was praying for his dead son and for people making decisions about abortions, he was given a notice with a penalty fine of £100.
 
According to The Daily Mail, Smith-Connor’s fine allegedly said that the British Army veteran was being charged for “praying for his deceased son” due to a Public Spaces Protection Order. In the video footage, the British police claimed that Smith-Connor was in violation of a Public Spaces Protection Order due to praying near the abortion clinic.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
