Cops Nationwide Become Violent Against People Protesting for Abortion Rights

Americans took to the streets over the weekend to demonstrate against the Supreme Court ’s decision on Friday to repeal Roe v. Wade , the historical 1973 determination that protected a woman ’s right to have an abortion . But the contestant were met with violent resistance by cops in cities like Los Angeles , New York , Phoenix , and Greenville , South Carolina — perhaps because there was n’t an active schooltime shot for the police to remain firm alfresco of for an hr , as theyrecently did in Uvalde , Texas , when 19 children and two teachers were slaughtered .

Americans were tear - gassed inArizona , assaulted inSouth Carolina , punched inRhode Island , nail inNew York , and shoved to the dry land inLos Angeles .

It ’s a worn - out inquiry at this stop , but what would you say if you determine this happening in another rural area ? When the police regularly assail unarmed the great unwashed for demonstrating in the name of miscarriage right hand , something seems very , very faulty . counterpoint what find during abortion - right protestation with the condition shown duringright - wing 1 .
