Will the thousands of homeless be joining the protesters ?????
And what will change in Killafornia? Nothing. So what’s the protest for? Just another roll call before God who’s writing in His Book of Life, and erasing from His Book of Life.
Mmmmmm. Tasty.
I hope this entices many of those leftists who fled CA for Texas, Florida, Arizona, Idaho, Tennessee, etc. to go back to california.
According to Obama, becoming pregnant is a mistake and the baby is the punishment. Interesting pattern of thought.
They’re all a bunch of socialists and commies. Life does not matter in their quest for a utopia where everyone lives equally in misery, except party members.
I have liberal friends who are losing their collective minds over this and you can’t make them understand, you want to kill your baby there are 24 states that will let you and if you want abortion in your state make your case to the people and their representatives to codify abortion into state law in your state.

-- What are protests going to achieve? --
I was wondering the same thing.
Homos have abortions?
If it is left up to the state, kalifornians will see nothing changed.
A little Dobbs will do ya.
I’m sure they’re going to hit the Cathedral, but I’m sure the Cathedral is ready.
Mostly cross dressers.
Protesting in a state that will allow post-birth abortions? WHY??????
The 213-page Supreme Court ruling in Dobbs -v- Jackson (Mississippi case) is FOUND HERE. The ruling in the Dobbs case was 6-3 in favor of allowing Mississippi to place limits on abortion after 15 weeks. However, in combination with the Dobbs decision the court has overturned (by a 5-4 vote) the 1972 Roe -vs- Wade decision that created a constitutional right to abortion.
Chief Justice John Roberts joined with the majority on the Dobbs decision (Mississippi) but said he did not agree with the decision to overturn Roe. The vote to overturn Roe was 5-4. Justices Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett joined Justice Samuel Alito’s opinion.
Due to an unprecedented leak in the Alito draft opinion in May, the Roe decision was anticipated. The leaked draft opinion showed that a majority of the justices were privately poised to remove a constitutional right for abortion; today that step was taken.
SCOTUS BLOG – […] Alito began his 79-page opinion by observing that abortion “presents a profound moral issue on which Americans hold sharply conflicting views.” But the Constitution does not refer to abortion at all, Alito stressed, and nothing in the Constitution implicitly protects the right to an abortion.
Although the Supreme Court’s decisions in Roe and Casey established such a right, Alito continued, those decisions should nonetheless be overruled despite the principle of stare decisis – the idea that courts should not overturn their prior precedent unless there is a compelling reason to do so. Noting that some of the Supreme Court’s other landmark decisions, such as Brown v. Board of Education, rejecting the “separate but equal” doctrine, had overruled precedent, Alito emphasized that Roe was “egregiously wrong and deeply damaging” and – along with Casey – should not be allowed to stand. Instead, Alito concluded, the issue of abortion should “return … to the people’s representatives.” (read more)
Abortion rights activists and politicians have been preparing for this moment for two months. Immediately after the decision to overturn Roe was released all of the far-left activists, media stenographers and politicians began reacting.
This supreme court ruling will lead several news cycles and opposing it will form the cornerstone of the 2022 Democrat mid-term election campaign in every state. The media have been polling this abortion issue since the draft leak in early May.
CNN did an extensive poll on the abortion issue of young people voting – [pdf here]
CTH pulled all the poll data into one easier to read infographic of the responses by age (below). The 18-to-34-year group are not single-issue voters.
31% of that age group say a candidate MUST agree with them on abortion, while 69% say abortion is only one of several factors or not much of a factor.
The 18–34-year group is also reasonably pragmatic. If Roe v Wade overturned, 21% say abortions likely to be banned where they live; 31% say likely harder but not banned; 26% say it wouldn’t make a difference; and 22% not sure what would happen where they live.
Love it! Libs ready to burn their down:-)
“Burn down San Francisco, that’ll show ‘em!”
At least burning will ride SF from needles and feces in the streets!
My libtard neighbors in NVA have already replaced their Ukrainian support flags with pink flags with uteruses (uteri??) on them. You got to hand it to the Left...they are always ready with props to show their support for The Next Thing 🙄
When they come for pro lifers personal property we want it prosecuted as hat crimes
What a bunch of SICK disgusting women and castrated men! Their hate, mental illnesses, and lust for murdering babies know no bounds. They are truly vile and sickening.
