NY bookstore owner closes for ‘day of mourning’ in protest of abortion law

One small business owner in New York is making headlines for his stance against New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s Reproductive Health Act, which was made official on the 46th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion throughout the United States. The Act, as previously reported by Live Action News, “expands abortion for virtually any reason through the third trimester” even allowing abortion on viable babies for financial reasons. Insurance carriers will now be required cover abortion and non-physicians may commit abortions. The law even rescinds protections for babies born alive during an abortion, and will not treat preborn victims of violence as homicide victims.

Jon Speed, owner of The Book Scout in Syracuse, expressed great sorrow over the governor’s decision and chose to close his bookstore. He posted a sign that reads, “CLOSED TODAY. Today is a day of mourning in New York State. We will not collect sales tax today for a tyrannical government that murders babies. We will resume regular business tomorrow, collecting sales tax under duress. End Abortion Now.”

That is my question exactly. Surely there is some kind of legal recourse against this monstrosity!

Thank you for that link. I plan to make a purchase from his store. It’s a small gesture but I hope his store is flooded with business.....!

Yes, they do = but they bring judgement on the society in which they live also. Many in this country are going to suffer for this atrocity (not just the murdered babies).
