Abortion activists plan to gather across the nation today to protest state laws that protect unborn babies from abortion.
The protests are a response to Alabama, Georgia, Ohio, Missouri and other states that are trying to protect unborn babies by banning or restricting abortions after an unborn baby’s heartbeat is detectable.
They also are drawing attention away from other states like New York and Vermont, which recently passed radical abortion laws legalizing the killing of unborn babies for basically any reason up to birth.
Behind the “Stop the Bans” protests are some of the most powerful, well-funded abortion groups in the country: Planned Parenthood, the American Civil Liberties Union, NARAL and the Women’s March, The Hill reports. They are demanding unrestricted abortions up to birth and taxpayer funded abortions.
“Across the country, we are seeing a new wave of extreme bans on abortion, stripping away reproductive freedom and representing an all-out assault on abortion access,” the groups said in a statement.
“This is Trump’s anti-choice movement… and it’s terrifying, particularly for women of color and low-income women who are most affected by these bans,” they continued.
Altogether, about 50 abortion advocacy groups are participating in the protests, WSAV News reports. Abortion activists are encouraged to meet at noon today outside statehouses and courthouses across the country. There are protests in every state, including in Nashville, Detroit, Jackson, Memphis and Savannah.
“We will show up to speak out and fight back against this unconstitutional attempt to gut Roe and punish women,” the groups said, News 5 Cleveland reports. None of the pro-life laws or bills punish women for having abortions.
“Politicians shouldn’t be making decisions best left to women, their families, and their doctors,” they continued – though these same groups are fighting to overturn laws so that nurses and midwives also may do abortions.
The National Right to Life Committee said these abortion activists are the true extremists. A new Hill-HarrisX survey found that a majority of Americans support heartbeat laws, such as the ones passed in Ohio and Georgia, and Gallup polls consistently show that Americans think most abortions should be illegal.
“We bet you are frustrated. You are frustrated with the extreme pro-abortion agenda that seems to be taking over our country,” NRLC wrote on Twitter.
While abortion activists likely will succeed in blocking all of the pro-life laws in court, the pro-abortion laws in New York and Vermont are in effect – allowing unborn babies to be aborted for basically any reason up to birth.
Pro-life advocates hope for an eventual victory at the U.S. Supreme Court, but, for now, Roe v. Wade stands, preventing states from passing even moderate protections for babies in the womb.

Murder Inc. has it’s activists on the move again fear of all the government funding loss getting to them.
Yes indeed!
Since the 1960's a segment of our population has grown up with this Me...Me....Me...attitude; without religion, respect for the law, our nation or any sense of social responsibility.
Words of wisdom
Up to birth? Why stop there?
Maybe you decide you don’t want them at 2 or 3?
15 or 16?
If conception doesn’t create a citizen,
if quickening doesn’t create a citizen,
if being born doesn’t create a citizen,
when does it become a crime to kill you?
In protest of the decreasing abortion rights, protestors will abort themselves at exactly 5 PM Eastern.
“There is nothing “ free”
Someone gets paid
Bills get paid
Leases get paid”
And it shouldn’t be paid by the people. Lefties seem to forget this little nugget when they bitch and moan about it.
These aren’t abortion “activists” ... they’re abortion “enthusiasts” — wildly ecstatic with killing human fetuses and murdering babies ... especially black babies.
A woman’s right to do what she wants with her body huh? Too bad it’s not her body that she is killing, it’s the baby’s!
The party that is always talking about love and compassion, deamnding protection of their “right” to kill.
I’m willing to make an exception to allow after-birth abortions in the case of abortion activists.
The left are the true racists.
It’s time to get these lame F**ks attention. Abort a puppy on live video and watch their heads explode!
I think there should be retroactive abortion allowed on all these horrible people that want to kill babies.

So, what they’re saying is:
1) We’re Democrats
2) We kill unborn babies
3) It’s what we do
