Raging Planned Parenthood chair calls for riots over TX abortion law: ‘Be ready to break some s**t’

The ban prohibits abortions after six weeks which is when a fetal heartbeat is first detected. It also gives anyone in or outside of Texas the right to civilly sue someone who “aids and abets” the termination of a pregnancy after six weeks. The Texas statute is unique in that it empowers private citizens, not the government, to enforce a ban on abortion after six weeks. It makes it very difficult for clinics or other potential challengers to establish standing in a court of law or to locate a single target to sue.

“I mean, what exactly did you all expect?” Love caustically noted. “You’re devastated, but you consistently ignored every single sign. I’ll write something coherent in the morning, but just know that fighting back doesn’t mean p*ssy hats or petitions. Be ready to break some s***.”

“If you went to bed early last night, you’re waking up to news that SCOTUS did not to intervene in Texas, so SB8, a bill that bans abortion at 6 weeks, is now law. If you’re like me, your timelines is awash with folks being all varieties of upset as Roe is essentially done,” Love remarked.

“When SCOTUS agreed to take the Mississippi case, folks in repro knew what it meant for Roe. So did the antis. I’ve been saying for months that Roe is done and we need to build movement around creating a new abortion rights framework, especially b/c Roe is imperfect,” Love contended.

“Then last night happened. I know you’re upset, but we’ve had years to recon with what was coming. So, I’m not broken or deterred. I’m ready to FIGHT BACK! Are you? Then stop being polite about this. Stop speaking in hushed voices. Get some courage and shatter this s*** system!” she tweeted.

“To every person who called me dramatic or I said needed to “give Biden a chance” or “stay in your lane,” I hope your eyes are open now. I hope your ears are open now. And I hope you’re ready to fight to protect abortion in this country. Say it with me–ABORTION!” the abortion advocate railed.

“If you’re not sold on abortion on demand and without apology, then it’s well past time for you to get there. If you need a push, I’m happy to discuss. But if you can’t get on this train, then GET OUT OF THE WAY!” Love angrily proclaimed.

Two top leaders in the Arizona Democratic Party evidently backed Love’s call for riots in response to the Supreme Court’s refusal to intervene in Texas’s abortion ban, according to AZ Free News.

State Representative Daniel Hernandez (D-Tucson) liked her tweet and State Representative Diego Rodriguez (D-Phoenix) retweeted the call for violence. Both of them are running for higher office. Hernandez wants to be the second district’s next congressman. Rodriguez is focused on becoming Arizona’s attorney general.

After blowback on social media, Rodriguez reportedly removed his retweet.

“Anyone perceived to be aiding and abetting an abortion now has a bounty on their head,” stated Planned Parenthood President Alexis McGill Johnson, according to Politico. “The state is empowering vigilantes to enforce a bad law.”

The media also had a collective meltdown over the abortion ban. CNN’s Chief Legal Analyst Jeffrey Toobin claimed it is the end of Roe vs. Wade. “We have been accused, those of us saying that Roe is about to be overturned, as being Chicken Little the sky is falling,” Toobin remarked and then added for emphasis, “The sky is falling.”

White House press secretary Jen Psaki also called Texas’ Heartbeat Act an “extreme threat” to Roe v. Wade on Wednesday.

While Planned Parenthood, the media, and the White House are enraged by the new law, many support it in Texas and across the nation.

“Starting today, every unborn child with a heartbeat will be protected from the ravages of abortion,” Texas Governor Greg Abbott said in a statement. “Texas will always defend the right to life.”

Others are suspicious of the timing concerning the purported call to riot.

“The call for rioting comes at a suspicious time as Biden’s DOJ is pursuing a punitive investigation against the Phoenix Police for stopping riots, and violent crime continues to surge,” EZAZ.org reported.

There was a celebration on social media over the new abortion ban in Texas and praise for Governor Abbott:

More than 6,500 accused felons unleashed upon New York as District Attorneys decline to prosecute September 1, 2021 | Frank Webster

 

More than 6,500 accused felons unleashed upon New York as District Attorneys decline to prosecute

According to data compiled by the New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services, district attorneys across the state declined to prosecute accused felons in 2020 at nearly twice the rate of 2019, resulting in more than 6,500 accused felons being loosed upon society.

Prosecutors dropped all charges in 16.9 percent of the 38,635 felony cases last year. In 2019, the rate of disposition was just 8.7 percent and the average for 2016 to 2019 was even lower at 8 percent. The lefties love to double down, don’t they?

0:03 / 48:37

The total number of felony cases in 2020 was less than the 69,119 from 2019, but the percentage of cases dropped without prosecution was higher. Some of the disparity in numbers is attributed to court closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

An unnamed law enforcement source told the New York Post there were “a lot of layers to the problem,” including veteran prosecutors retiring or leaving for other jobs and “inexperienced [prosecutors] and cops making it harder to do trials.”

There is also the inherently political nature of a DA’s job.

“The DAs are worried about getting re-elected,” the source said. “Plus, you throw in a bucket of ‘woke’ and no one is getting prosecuted.”

The source also pointed to difficulties imposed by a 2020 discovery reform law put into place by the state legislature and now-unemployed former governor,  Andrew Cuomo.

“Now, if someone takes a plea, you still have to provide the discovery information even though the case is closed,” the source told the paper. “Before, you didn’t have to. If you DP [decline to prosecute] a case, there is no discovery.”

Bronx DA Darcel Clark took the gold for most felony cases dropped at 2,408 or 28.5 percent. Other dishonorable mentions included Brooklyn DA Eric Gonzalez, who declined to prosecute 2,206 cases, or 17.8 percent, and in Manhattan, outgoing DA Cyrus Vance Jr. declined to prosecute 11.7 percent of the cases disposed of last year, up from 7.6 percent in 2019.

Felony dispositions from only two of the boroughs did not reach double digits, though they did increase. In Queens, under DA Melinda Katz, the number was 9.9 percent, up from 5 percent in 2019, and on Staten Island, under DA Michael McMahon, it was 8.2 percent, up from 4.8 percent.

The NY DAs had a lot of help from activist judges, too.

Another 2,365 cases, or 28 percent, were dismissed by judges in the Bronx, while in Brooklyn, judges dismissed more than twice as many at 5,335 or 42.9 percent.

In 2019, prison sentences were handed down in only 7 percent of cases, and jail sentences in 7.2 percent of cases.

Just 7.4 percent of defendants 18 and older were convicted of felonies and 10.5 percent were convicted of misdemeanors in 2020, compared to 12.1 percent and 17.1 percent, respectively, in 2019.

And only 3.8 percent of cases that began as felonies resulted in judges sending criminals to prison for a year or more or to jail for shorter terms during 2020.

Joseph Giacalone, a retired NYPD detective sergeant and adjunct professor at the city’s John Jay College of Criminal Justice, was enraged by the situation, saying, “There’s so many people that will lose their lives because of that.”

“Eventually, it’s all going to backfire,” he said, adding, “The pendulum will swing back the other way, and they’ll stop electing people who are pretending to be a district attorney in name only.”

Bronx DA spokeswoman Denisse Moreno declared, “We prosecute cases when there is legally sufficient evidence. We decline to prosecute or defer prosecution in cases where police may need to gather more evidence or secure the cooperation of witnesses so that the case can move forward. It is our duty as prosecutors to ethically assess each arrest as it comes in and determine if it is legally sufficient to proceed.”

One wonders if that inspection of ethics considers victims as well, or just criminals.

A McMahon spokeswoman declined to comment and none of the spokespersons for the other DAs’ offices immediately returned requests for comment by the NY Post.

A spokesman for the Office of Court Administration also declined to comment on behalf of the city’s judiciary.

Top notch, everybody. Top notch.
