Officials in Greensboro, North Carolina, agreed that a group of pro-life citizens praying outside a local abortion clinic had been illegally arrested for their “exercise of constitutionally protected First Amendment rights,” according to the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF).

Eight members of the Love Life Christian ministry were arrested outside a Greensboro abortion clinic on March 28, 2020, the day after local officials had adopted a COVID-inspired public health proclamation that banned “mass gatherings” of 10 people or more, required patrons to walk to exempted businesses allowed to remain open, and stipulated that social distancing was to be maintained at all times during all activities.
