Flood punishes the sins of FargoWow...
The Red River is predicted to go higher than it did in 1997 and second highest to 1897 and, Lord willing, it won’t be an unmanageable flood.

The Red River is predicted to go higher than it did in 1997 and second highest to 1897 and, Lord willing, it won’t be an unmanageable flood.
I am one of many who believe the flood of ’97 and the flood to come and our crumbling economy is our punishment for the horrible sin of abortion – the terrible cruel taking of our innocent precious brothers and sisters.
These floods are Fargo’s punishment for allowing that abortion mill to continue to operate a half-block from The Forum. We hopefully will hold the floodwater back this time, but not forever to once again get God’s blessings and rid America and Fargo of the likes of these abortionists and support Rep. Dan Ruby’s 1572 Bill to save the child in its mother’s womb to challenge Roe v. Wade. God will punish all for the terrible sin of abortion.
A little Google search of David Habiger brought some rather disturbing stories.
From an Eight Circuit Court of Appeals Judgement rejecting Habiger's appeal for an arrest after his violation of a temporary restraining order.
In its opinion, the North Dakota Supreme Court described the events leading up to the issuance of the TRO:
Since 1981, the Fargo Women's Health Organization
has operated a clinic which provides a full range of
gynecological medical services including first trimester
abortions. Approximately 75 demonstrations by
anti-abortion protestors have been held in the vicinity
of the clinic. It appears that most of these
demonstrations were peaceful, consisting of picketing,
leafleting, and speaking to people in the area near the
clinic. Beginning March 29, 1991, the character of the
protests changed. On that day, 26 people stormed the
clinic, broke down a door, occupied its rooms, and locked
themselves together using bicycle locks. The
demonstrators refused to leave, were arrested, and were
removed by Fargo police after their locks were removed by
a locksmith.
On nine other occasions in the ensuing seven months,
demonstrators were arrested for criminal acts committed
in conjunction with anti-abortion protests. As a result
of these actions, patients were confronted and jostled as
they attempted to walk to the clinic. Some patients were
able to reach the clinic only with the assistance of
volunteer "escorts" or professional security officers who
walked them through groups of hostile, screaming
protestors that surrounded them, stood in their way,
forced leaflets into patients' hands and otherwise
impeded patients' access to the clinic. Protestors
struck, pushed, and threatened escorts and guards with
physical harm. One protestor was arrested trying to
climb the clinic's fence in order to reach a patient
using the clinic's rear entrance.
Patients who attempted to drive to the clinic were
confronted at the entrance to the clinic parking lot.
Protestors stood in the way of the cars, climbed onto the
vehicles' hoods or under the cars. Some protestors
attempted to fasten themselves to the frames of cars in
order to delay their removal from the site. On one
occasion, protestors placed blocks against the tires and
attempted to cut a cable in order to disable a car after
they succeeded in stopping it in the clinic's driveway.
On another occasion, protestors waited across the street
from the clinic for a car to approach the parking lot at
which point they rushed into the street, stopped the car,
and blocked the public road. As a result of these
tactics, the clinic was effectively blockaded; patients
and staff could not enter or leave the clinic for hours
at a time.
The protestors called these blockades "rescues." At
anti-abortion rallies held after the "rescues" began,
spokesmen for the associations asked volunteers to
participate by being jailed for rescuing babies. The
rescues were to be part of a two-year campaign to force
the clinic to close.
Away from the clinic, protestors followed clinic
staff members in cars, and into grocery stores, airports,
and other public buildings. Their activities were
particularly intense against one of the clinic's doctors.
During a five month period, groups as large as 30
demonstrated at the gate of her home, congregating in
predawn hours, shouting and honking car horns, and
attempting to block the departure of the doctor and her
family members. Some protestors roamed on the doctor's
property, leaving a banner draped over a car, a baby
stroller and basket on her porch. During times when the
protestors were near the site, the doctor's house and
garage were vandalized. Protestors followed the doctor
in cars as she drove to Fargo or to the airport. Groups
waited for the doctor in airport parking ramps and rushed
at her, yelling and flashing cameras. They leafleted
cars at the school of the doctor's daughter, and two
protestors were asked to leave the school building when
they attempted to obtain a photo of her daughter. A car
full of protestors also followed the daughter of one of
the clinic's volunteers.
Just reading through all of this stuff sent shivers up and down my spine. It's chilling the great lengths Habiger and his cronies went to terrorize the people of Fargo.
