Our Choice Protest
The Facts: As we all know Roe v. Wade was overturned on June 24, 2022. This not only means women’s fourth amendment right no longer applies to abortions, but also that many women are being left helpless due to the procedure now being illegal in many states. What many don’t seem to realize is that this is much larger than just abortion. Not only are women being told what to do with their own bodies now, but those women who go to prison for getting said procedure will be considered felons. In the United States felons cannot vote, meaning that one of the most fundamental concepts of a Democracy is in jeopardy of being taken from over half the population.
Now please take a minute to look at the beautiful ladies and gentlemen that showed up and spoke up at the protest that was held today, June 29th. (Below the pictures will be links to sources that will inform you on each state’s law on abortion.)

Abortion is sickening honestly. You’re doing all of this to gain power over a SEPARATE body that’s NOT yours! it’s a BABY.

If this were about children and babies, what are you doing about the children already living? Children in foster homes “are twice as likely as U.S. war veterans to experience PTSD in adulthood.” (Safy.org) We must protect the children of today if there can be ANY children of tomorrow. And what happens if an ectopic pregnancy occurs, where the baby cannot survive? And what about in the case of rape or incest?
