What Is Jane's Revenge? Abortion Rights Group Vows 'Night of Rage' Over Roe
The Party of Tolerance....
But this should come as no surprise from a Party that has pretty much dedicated itself to the advancement of the killing of babies.
The Party of Tolerance....
A militant pro-abortion group called Jane's Revenge has vowed a "night of rage" in Washington D.C. in response to Roe v Wade being overturned by the Supreme Court.
On Friday, the court overturned the landmark decision enacted almost half a century ago that allows women across the United States safe and legal abortion. Following the ruling, abortion will be banned in 13 U.S. states almost immediately, as they prepared "trigger" laws designed to instantly come into effect if Roe is overturned.
Jane's Revenge was formed after a draft opinion from the court saying that it would vote to overturn Roe was leaked to Politico and published on May 2. The leak advised that the landmark 1973 decision must be overruled and that abortion rights should instead be determined individually by each state. Protests involving abortion-rights and anti-abortion activists broke out after the leak was released.
The court's official verdict on Roe on Friday will deprive millions of Americans safe and legal access to abortion services in their state.
Fliers from Jane's Revenge have been circulating around Washington, D.C., where the Supreme Court is based, reading: "THE NIGHT SCOTUS OVERTURNS ROE V. WADE HIT THE STREETS YOU SAID YOU'D RIOT."
"TO OUR OPPRESSORS: IF ABORTIONS AREN'T SAFE, YOU'RE NOT EITHER. JANE'S REVENGE," it continued.
Now that the court has voted to overturn Roe, as expected, many people will be looking to see how Jane's Revenge will respond.
The group has form, having taken responsibility for multiple political actions, including violent ones such as the firebombing of a string of anti-abortion crisis pregnancy centers since the draft leaked. It claimed attacks in Hollywood, Florida; Des Moines, Iowa and Madison, Wisconsin; as well as other locations in states including Massachusetts, New York, Oregon, Texas and Washington.
Jane's Revenge spreads its "communiques" through its website, graffiti and flyers.
