The Las Vegas massacre has been weighing heavily on the hearts and minds of everyone, including celebrities. In the immediate wake of the tragedy, we saw stars calling for better gun control laws, and now, a day later, we’re seeing many famous women share a powerful quote attributed to — but actually not originated by — Gloria Steinem, which compares gun control and abortion, as the House voted on legislation banning abortion after 20 weeks.
Gloria Steinem didn’t say that guns vs. abortion quote that’s gone viral. (Photo: Getty Images) Gisele Bündchen, Kate Upton, Karlie Kloss, Kelly Rowland, Elisabeth Moss, Padma Lakshmi, Melanie Griffith, and Melissa Gilbert are just a handful of the women who posted the quote from the feminist icon that contrasts the treatment of young men buying guns with the treatment young women get when seeking an abortion.
“I want any young men who buy a gun to be treated like young women who seek an abortion,” it reads. “Think about it: a mandatory 48-hour waiting period, written permission from a parent or a judge, a note from a doctor proving that he understands what he is about to do, time spent watching a video on individual and mass murders, traveling hundreds of miles at his own expense to the nearest gun shop, and walking through protesters holding photos of loved ones killed by guns, protesters who call him a murderer. After all, it makes more sense to do this for young men seeking guns than for young women seeking an abortion. No young woman needing reproductive freedom has ever murdered a roomful of strangers.”

Bump to steal your graphic later.
I’m so sorry for your loss.
thousands each year killed by guns vs. millions each year killed by abortions.
Buying a Gun doesn’t guarantee Murder.
Having an Abortion guarantees Murder 100%.
