Fears of violence against pro-choice protests intensify amid wave of attacks
The Guardian ^ | Tue 28 Jun 2022 | Erum Salam

Fears over police violence and attacks by anti-abortion activists have been growing following a wave of incidents at demonstrations against the US supreme court’s decision to overturn Roe v Wade, which upheld the constitutional right to an abortion.

Abortion rights supporters prepared to fan out across America Saturday for a second day of protest against the Supreme Court's thunderbolt ruling, as state after conservative state moved swiftly to ban the procedure.

Across the country, hundreds of thousands of people have gathered at protests objecting to the ruling. The protests have been overwhelmingly peaceful but some have seen incidents of police violence – including attacks on protesters – and an incident of a car driving dangerously through marchers.

Law enforcement cracked down on protests in multiple states, wielding batons and forcibly removing protesters from public spaces and firing teargas in Arizona.

Over two dozen pro-choice activists were arrested in New York City as protests took place in Washington Square Park, Union Square and in front of the NewsCorp building in midtown, home to Fox News studios.

In Arizona, police fired rounds of teargas into protesters from inside the state Capitol building. Police later issued a statement saying they were concerned protesters would gain access to the building.

Riots are ALWAYS "overwhelmingly peaceful" if they come from the jackboot left. Now they're back to worrying about "police brutality".

Violence against pro-abortion protesters? Funny. Maybe police arrests for their violence but I have not seen anywhere that folks are attacking pro-abortion protesters. How about we talk about the terrorism and violence against pro-life folks?

Any attempt to arrest pro-abortion rioters is “police violence”.

Many are talking. You are, I am. Some have never shut up taking about the violence and terror directed against honest, hardworking Americans.

Our words can’t be heard over the din.

Notice this rag calls the pro-lifers, the “anti-abortion” activists.

Why doesn’t this Rag call the “pro-choice” crowd, the anti-life activists (which is what they really are). Their choice is to kill the baby.

Riots are ALWAYS "overwhelmingly peaceful" if they come from the jackboot left.

Except for: A few mostly peaceful attempts at murder!

Were some baby killer protestors shot and killed by the DC Police for no reason?
