Beyoncé, Katy Perry, and Scarlett Johansson Push Planned Parenthood’s Pro-Abortion “Women’s March”
LIFE NEWS ^ | January 19, 2017 | Micaiah Bilger

The Women’s March on Washington officially is now pro-abortion, excluding millions of women who support rights for all human beings, including the unborn.

And among its ranks will be some of America’s top celebrities, many of whom have been vocal abortion supporters in the past.

Grazia Daily reports Beyonce, Katy Perry, Scarlett Johansson, Amy Schumer and America Ferrera are among the celebrities who plan to attend the march on Saturday, one day after the presidential inauguration.

Here’s more from the report:

A proud supporter of Hillary Clinton during the presidential election, Beyoncé posted a message of support for the marchers on her Facebook page, underneath a red, white and blue poster for the Washington leg of the event.

‘Together with Chime for Change, we raise our voices as mothers, as artists and as activists,’ she wrote. ‘As #GlobalCitizens, we can make our voices heard and turn awareness into meaningful action and positive change.’

Some of the most wealthy and influential pro-abortion groups in the U.S. are backing the march, including Planned Parenthood and NARAL. Celebrities like Johansson, Schumer and Perry have been vocal advocates of the abortion business in the past, so their participation in the pro-abortion march comes as little surprise.

Until about a week ago, the march claimed to welcome “people of all genders, ages, races, cultures, political affiliations and backgrounds … to affirm our shared humanity and pronounce our bold message of resistance and self-determination.” Many of the marchers plan to stand for women’s rights and in opposition to some of the sexist remarks made by Donald Trump in the past.

However, it became clear this week that the march has a decidedly pro-abortion agenda. Contrary to its stated mission of inclusivity, the march kicked out three pro-life women’s groups, New Wave Feminists, And Then There Were None and Stanton Healthcare, from its partner list after abortion activists complained.

The Atlantic reported more about the situation:

A pro-life group based in Texas, New Wave Feminists, was granted partnership status on Friday. “Intersectional feminism is the future of feminism and of this movement,” said Bob Bland, one of the event’s co-chairs. “We must not just talk about feminism as one issue, like access to reproductive care.” (On Monday afternoon, after the publication of this article, the Women’s March organizers removed the New Wave Feminists from their website and list of partners. “The Women’s March’s platform is pro-choice and that has been our stance from day one,” the organizers said in a statement. “The anti-choice organization in question is not a partner of the Women’s March on Washington. We apologize for this error.”)

Historic researchers say Susan B. Anthony and the first wave feminists likely would have agreed with some of the other platforms of the upcoming march, but not its pro-abortion stance.

Earlier this week, Carol Crossed and Eric Anthony, leaders at the Susan B. Anthony Birthplace Museum, wrote about the march:

The unifying theme of Susan Brownell Anthony’s life was to speak up for those without a voice. Anthony fought for temperance, the abolition of slavery and especially the enfranchisement of women. She also spoke up for the voiceless child in utero, opposing Restellism, the term that Anthony’s newspaper and others at that time used for abortion. It’s easy to chalk up Anthony’s (and other early feminists’) opposition to abortion as a relic of their day and age. But these women were progressive and independent; they did not oppose abortion because they were conditioned to, but because they believed every human life has inherent and equal value, no matter their age, skin color or sex.

Though disinvited, several pro-life groups say they plan to attend the march anyway to be voices for the rights of all women, including those in the womb.

“A woman’s first right is the right to be born”

I was going to post something clever (so I thought) but I can’t improve upon what you posted. It is quite a sobering statement.

In other words “WE NEED TO GET POP CULTURE CELEBS ON BOARD TO ATTRACT A CROWD OF FAME WORSHIPERS TO PROP UP OUR NUMBERS FOR SATURDAY”

People going to see Katy Perry and Beyonce does not a protest make. Same when Hillary had to use musicians to get people to her rally.

Beyonce, Katy Perry and Scarlett Johannson are some of the richest people on the planet.

Someone please explain to me why Planned Parenthood needs to force taxpayers to pay for it, when so many of the richest people on earth are in favor of it?

“We are really pretty! And famous too! We stand for unfettered sex! Vaginas used like a little league catcher’s mitt! Pregnancy stands in the way of all that quick sex! Get rid of it! Make taxpayers pay for it! Kill! and have more sex! That is what we stand for! Oh, and we are famous and can sing!”

These people are sick!!!

OK... You know... I will NEVER have an abortion because I am a man. I would NEVER support an abortion if I knocked up a girlfriend. That being said.

These people are sick. If you want an abortion FINE. Have your abortion. Scramble your baby in to parts to be sold by a PP profiteer. To celebrate abortion is a sick disgusting act. If you kill your own child you will answer to God. That is not something to be celebrated.

I am a man born of sin. I am a man who has sinned. I am a man that will sin again. I am not proud of my sins and I pray for God’s forgiveness for my sins. I try to go through my days and life without offending people and sinning against God. I fear the day my time is up and I find myself kneeling before God explaining my life. That is my simple cross to bear.

But these abortionist nut jobs are just evil. They CELEBRATE killing children. If you have an abortion as a woman that IS, indeed, your choice. You will face God and answer for that. Maybe God can forgive you for that horrible choice, but that’s not for me to decide. I leave that to God. I have my own issues. But these people celebrate this. They embrace the killing of a child. Scumbags like Sarah Silverman even have comedy routines about killing their children.

9 more hours and this evil man is out of the White House. I think I’ll have a belt of fine Irish Whiskey... (even though I’m Polish...)

Hey Jay Z, remember when you called all romney supporters Mitches, meaning bitches, well now you’re OUR bitch for the next 8 years.

As for Ferrera, she thanked Trump last year for helping to galvanize the hispanic vote into defeating him. Oops.
