Vile Displays & Ignorance on Parade at 'Bans Off Our Bodies' Rally

On May 2, 2022, a draft opinion regarding the reversal of Roe v. Wade was leaked from the Supreme Court. As a mark of disapproval, Planned Parenthood and a bunch of other abortion facilities, coordinated a nationwide event called “Bans Off Our Bodies” on May 14.

There were over 450 events across the nation as marchers aimed to “tell anti-abortion politicians:#BansOffOurBodies.”

We visited the National Mall in Washington, D.C. to hear what these protesters had to say and to put their vile displays and narratives on record.

One man was holding a sign that said “If abortion is murder then a blow job is cannibalism.” I don't think anyone in the pro-life movement believes that lone sperm is a fertilized egg but, to each their own I guess.

One woman, or rather, "person with a uterus,” gave a “visceral experience.” She came to the protest with blood dripping down her dress and legs and covering her hands. She also had a few hangers hung to her umbrella and droplets of blood made from red construction paper. On each droplet she had messages to “remind me why I’m here” … as if she would forget.

One man sat crisscrossed and screamed "Pro-lifers are pro-Nazi's and the Nazi's will bring an actual genocide. Thank god for safe abortions." I put a lower case "g" on God because God doesn't support the death of an innocent baby and there's no such thing as a safe abortion.

The worst part was seeing children handed signs that said “F**K YOU” or “My Body, My Choice.” Most were in baby strollers but told to hold these vile displays.

The insanity of these people can’t get much worse. Check out the video to see what we encountered.

These idiots that shout “MY BODY MY CHOICE!” are the same idiots that will dutifully march to the nearest clinic, pharmacy or health department and line up for the Clot Shots ad infinitum...................

Yes, the Nazis were known for their pro-life attitude. It’s really what’s made them famous in history. How can someone be so ignorant of history still (just barely) within living memory?

I meant to write ‘first trimester abortion’ in that last paragraph. Sorry.

Oklahoma just signed a law that states abortion at anytime during a pregnancy is now illegal. I consider that an extreme position by today’s standards.

Yes, I agree that many many many people do not deem abortion as acceptable, but I’m not talking about individuals.....I’m talking about the ‘body politic.’ In other words, if you took everyone’s opinion into account and smashed it into one super person, you would have in front of you a person who is OK with abortion during the first trimester, weary of it during the second trimester, and against it during the third trimester.

Since we are a democracy, this will likely become the position of the country when Roe v Wade is thankfully overturned.

It’s up to people like you to move the average further towards your opinion. I guarantee you, the folks on the left will be trying to drag the average their way.

Good luck my friend. I’ll be on your side.

Don't know. But the acronym is "BOOB". Seems to fit.
