Christian lawyers call for the investigation of the posters that have appeared in San Sebastian against the Spanish Episcopal Conference
  • Christian lawyers have described the posters appearing in San Sebastian as "offensive". They consider that the perpetrators have committed three crimes: hatred, religious feelings and the usurpation of civil status. The action was anonymous, as the posters placed next to the Askabide clinic have not been assumed or claimed as authorship. Over two million visits to the network.

The Christian Lawyers request the San Sebastian Examining Court to investigate the authors of the posters appearing in the bus canopies of San Sebastian. On 23 February there appeared the posters that criticized the Conference of Bishops of Spain, with the image of a fetus and with the following text: "If you abort now, what are we going to touch on the skin in five or six years? ".

News from Gipuzkoa has announced that the institution of the jurists has classified the posters as "offensive" and considers that the author is responsible for a crime of hatred, a crime against religious feelings and a third party to usurp the civil state. He also asks the Commercial Court to investigate "if the marquee company knew the cartel and its contents".

The President of the Christian Lawyers, Poland Castellanos, pointed out that "they have been punished for calling paedophiles the practitioners of another religion". "Everything seems to be allowed against Catholics. Justice cannot leave such barbarity unpunished," said Castellanos, according to News from Gipuzkoa.

"We Christians are fed up with the attacks of the usual groups. We are only asking for respect for other citizens. It is unacceptable to call for freedom of expression to insult Christians and our beliefs," stressed the President of the Christian Lawyers.

Anonymous action on urban guerrillas

Posters appear next to the Askabide clinic when an ultra-Catholic group launched a campaign against abortion rights. Forty days for life, the campaign focused on centers that interrupt pregnancy. Tension has already existed on many occasions in Amara Donostia, when anti-abortion groups have systematically gone to press the workers and clients of the Askabide clinic with their posters and other materials. They've also called processions.

The posters have not been taken by anyone and it is clear that they have not been made by the Spanish Episcopal Assembly. However, the cartel has had several million visits on the network, taking into account only the next account that opened the photo. Only the bird of the photojournalist Javier Duran has been seen 2.6 million times. The photo was broadcast by many more people on the networks and received by numerous media from the Basque Country. The bird of the Spanish magazine Mongolia, for example, has thousands of reservations and sayings.
