POLICE STATE AUSTRALIA: Perth Police Interrupt Mass and Barge into Church to Check Proper Masking of Parishioners
Church worshippers were in total shock as a policeman interrupted the mass service at St. Bernadette’s Catholic Church in Mount Hawthorn Perth, Australia on Thursday evening.
“It is highly regrettable that the police felt themselves obliged to intervene during a religious service in one of Perth’s Catholic parishes in order to enforce the mask-wearing mandate,” Catholic Archbishop of Perth Timothy Costelloe said in a statement according to news.com.au.
“The celebration of the Eucharist is the central act of Catholic worship and is sacred to all Catholics,” he added.
Patrick Horneman was first to report that a policeman entered the church “demanding correct mask behavior and checking exemptions.”
“Where have we seen this behavior before in history?” said Horneman.
