Leftists Defend Abortion (Defeat the Right) in Foley Sq NYC

Oct 8, 2022 – Noon. Foley Square. NYC.
Pro-abortion protestors (young and old)


… male, female and … in between…

.They filled Foley square, DEMANDING unlimited access to abortions.

.Their protest hosts were the usual Socialist Marxists, made obvious by their manufactured and message dictated signs from Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSLweb.org); RevCom.us; RiseUp4AbortionRights.org; Four Freedoms Democrat Club; and Socialist Workers Party.

However, these very confidently smug men and women lost their ‘cool’ when about 4 or 5 self proclaimed Progressives – PRO-LIFEers from PAAU (Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising) – bravely shouting over the crowd “Abortion is Murder”.

“PAAU is calling on every progressive American to join our campaign to end the influence of Big Abortion within the Democratic Party and in progressive cities across the nation.” [https://paaunow.org/]

Abortion Extremism Ends Now!

“Our mission is to mobilize grassroots anti-abortion activists for direct action and educate on the exploitative influence of the Abortion Industrial Complex through an anti-capitalist lens.

We’re progressive grassroots activists dismantling the abortion industrial complex & standing in solidarity with the unborn victims killed by abortion violence. PAAU info.”

These anti -abortion signs turned the pro-abortion socialists in to a frothing mass of piranha. (2 crowd pics from Getty) Disgusting but exposing the predictable hatred from the left.

Part 3 -Pro-abortion protestors  and the Socialist Marxist agitators lost their ‘cool’, surrounding 4 or 5 PRO LIFEers who held their signs high and bravely shouted “Abortion is Murder”.

Along with tables of reading materials (RevCom offers a roadmap to the Revolution)

Leftists papers were also handed out at the protest

Spartacist (The International Communist League (Fourth Internationalist) is a proletarian, revolutionary and internationalist tendency committed to the task of building Leninist parties as national sections of a democratic-centralist international. Our aim is the achievement of new October Revolutions—nothing else, nothing other, nothing less.)

(The Militant Table)
The Militant,( A SOCIALIST NEWSWEEKLY PUBLISHED IN THE INTERESTS OF WORKING PEOPLE)

WASHINGTON — Thousands of people, including many young women, turned out for the “Women’s Wave” march here Oct. 8, as they did in similar actions across the country. Organizers appealed to them to join in campaigning and voting for Democratic Party candidates in the November elections….“They say vote Democrat, but the Democrats are already in power and what good has that done?” Aurozo Niaz told this Militant worker-correspondent.

Niaz is a 22-year-old member of the Young Democratic Socialists of America...  agreed that the DSA backs the Democratic Party and was interested in learning more about the Socialist Workers Party’s call for working people to break from the Democrats and Republicans and to fight for a labor party based on our unions.

They put up tables with the Militant, books and signs highlighting a working-class road forward, including to woman’s emancipation …  “For reproductive and maternal health care, sex education, safe and reliable contraception, safe and legal abortion,” read one sign. “For a jobs program and working conditions that allow family time … “Defend constitutional freedoms. No to the FBI, the rulers’ political police,” said a third.

At the rally in New York City, SWP members included a sign that read, “Decriminalize abortion, no to population control!” These signs help spur broader discussion about the character of the crisis facing working people and what we should do about it.” (The Militant)

VOTE!

.The women of Iran was a hot topic (there were many signs)

Saw signs from the liberal Jews:  Zioness – Truah

WITCHES – VOTE

And of course the lib/prog/commies are anti-anything and everything GOP .

GOP’s are evil cause they don’t care about women.

Three short videos of the leftist’s Propaganda Indoctrination .

Part 1 –Pro-abortion protestors and some very familiar Socialist Marxist organizers. (The manufactured signs made no secret of who was promoting this protest)

Part 2-Pro-abortion protestors and some very familiar Socialist Marxist organizers.

However, there are always those who seek justice through a larger lens….it’s not just about abortion.

Part 3 – Still, the group of Pro-abortion protestors (and some very familiar Socialist Marxist organizers) lost their ‘cool’ and surrounded the only 4 or 5 PRO LIFEers who held their signs high and bravely shouted “Abortion is Murder”

.Cracks in the picture. Now that they’re seeing 3D and 4D imaging, it’s no wonder the argument that a fetus is “just a clump of cells” seems to be losing its credibility.

Today, ultrasounds are more advanced than ever. Gone is the era of the traditional, black and white, grainy 2D images. Now, through 3D, 4D, and HD ultrasounds — which were developed and entered commercial use in the 1990s — women are able to access clear, photo-quality images of fetuses and even video footage of the fetus’ movement. 

These technological advances make detecting birth defects and abnormalities easier for medical professionals. They also are enabling women to come face to face with the tissue, organs, anatomy, and even the individual facial features of the fetus AKA BABY  growing inside of them.

…this is having a meaningful impact on sentiments about abortion—not just for mothers considering them like Sarah, but also for the public as a whole.“The focus groups kept bringing up ultrasounds — and the refinement of ultrasounds and 3D ultrasounds—and they just said, ‘Well, that’s a baby,’” Anderson explained. “The science of imaging has moved to a point where your average voter now says, ‘I’m not going to argue over whether that’s a baby. I know it’s a baby. Now, let’s talk about how we balance all this out, and balance that with the rights of the mother.“

Not everyone embraces the socialist revolution.“Join the Revolution” is looking a bit worn and damaged.

 But so many commie/soc/progs continue to encourage “The Revolution”.
And unlike the Jan 6 prisoners … Our government is protecting this insurrection:

Protest Children’s Drag Story Hour NYC: SHUT IT DOWN!

Oct 1, 2022. In an intermittent heavy rain,  outside a NY Public Library on west 20th st,  a Children’s Drag Story Hour Reading was announced for 11 am.

Antifa Thugs showed up to protect the drag show, as did a lot of police, from the non violent Guardians of Divinity who were there to inform and protect the children from these grooming story hours.

The Guardians of Divinity protestors attempted to protect the children and their PARENTS from the drag show indoctrination. (So glad LeeRoyPress captured much of what took place inside the library as I arrived late) Outrageously, Talia Jane, a credentialed press reporter wearing an ACAB- all cops are bastards hat, was in side the library shoving people out. Very odd.

The Guardians held signs like “Stop Grooming kids for Sex”. Even though they were denied entry to the library.

(the antifa – particularly lefty photog, talia jane – seemed to be working WITH the NYPD to keep the Guardians from being seen and heard by the misguided parents.) WHY?

.Even though there was a lot of NYPD present, the Antifa’s managed to assault a couple of  the Guardians of Divinity with fists .They pummeled them in the head and face, making it necessary  to call EMT’s. (see VIDEO)

The main  antifa thug -THIZL- responsible was eventually arrested.

….  aided by the persistent Guardians VIDEO of THIXL’S arrest, thanks to LEE ROY PRESS.

.AND the drag story hour was shut down. More examples of what is being pedaled across the country- and why families protest .

.(Megan Basham  @megbasham. If you are not provoked to righteous anger by a clergy member telling children that “do not be conformed to this world” means being a drag queen, then I think it is niceness you worship, not Jesus. We serve not only a loving God, but a holy one.)

…East Ghost Reports and Lee roy Press were at  Queens Library protest-. BTW- WHY are the drag readers always dressed as Satan?

.UPDATED INFO on why these drag story indoctrination hours need to be exposed:
.
“A drag queen incarcerated for child sex trafficking is now building a profile as a trans rights activist and crowdfunding transition surgeries on Twitter. Christopher Lynch forced a captive transgender youth into “sexual servitude.” [https://reduxx.info/incarcerated-drag-queen-who-sex-trafficked-teens-now-a-trans-activist/]
++
. “Progressive activists dominated CDC director’s lone ‘parent’ meeting. The small group of parents that the head of the CDC consulted before unveiling the government’s COVID-19 school reopening plan last year consisted mostly of progressive activists, …  Among the small group…  was Roz Keith, the founder and executive director of Stand With Trans, which lobbies for equal LGBTQ protections in schools, according to the report.” [https://nypost.com/2022/10/13/progressives-dominated-cdc-directors-lone-parent-meeting/]

“The ugly truth that everyone actually knows is that it’s all about pedophilia. The entire enterprise. It should come as no shock. From this freak to Ed Buck all the way back to Harvey Milk… They’re just wanting to have their jollies with kids.”

un-Vaxed Christians denied entry to Historical Ground Zero Trinity Episcopal Church NYC

8/21/22 the very “liberal” Episcopal Trinity Church at Wall St/Ground Zero – was NOT so liberal at the 11;15 am Worship Service:  ALL Christians were NOT welcomed.

The Church refused entry to worshipers who were not vaxed. (The CDC has DECREED an END  to NO vaxed and unvaxed segregation) but LET US PRAY fell on deaf ears at Trinity Episcopal Church -Wall Street..

INSIDE the protest began with one man challenging the mask/vax policy as being un-Christian.  (Even more strange rules prevailed, as he passed thru the screener to enter the church,  he was forced to relinquish his cigarettes.)

Video Part 1 . It was difficult hear what was said since the church security formed a tight circle around the Christian protestor.

Outside, in front of the church doors, unvaxed worshipers chanted “LET US Pray”. While many cops were seen to arrive, they kept coming  and coming , they didn’t interfere with the Christian worshipers.

Part 2 video

.Flickr slide show # 1- Christians were segregated- denied entry – NOT allowed to pray at historical Trinity Episcopal Church at Wall st/Ground Zero. They had to show vaccine PAPERS to PRAY. Shameful! un-Christian. “What would Jesus Do?”

Flickr slide show # 2 – screen shots ISIDE as the protest in support of those Christians denied entry BEGAN.

Protest inside 1

East Ghost Reports captured the moment a member of the clergy attempted to address the complaints of the Christians who were denied entry TO PRAY. Nothing came of this, of course.

Final look at the very WOKE Trinity Church Mission Statement:

Trinity Church Wall Street is a growing and inclusive Episcopal parish that seeks to serve and heal the world by building neighborhoods that live Gospel truths, generations of faithful leaders, and sustainable communities. We are guided by our core values: faith, integrity, inclusiveness, compassion, social justice, and stewardship. Members come from New York City and surrounding areas to form a racially, ethnically, and economically diverse congregation. Trinity Church and St. Paul’s Chapel are the cornerstones of the parish’s community life, worship, and mission. Worship is at the center of parish life, with 20 services offered every week, many of which are streamed online and viewed by hundreds of thousands worldwide. As historic buildings and active churches, Trinity Church and St. Paul’s Chapel also welcome more than three million visitors and pilgrims from around the world every year. 

Sadly, on August 21, 2022: Not EVERYONE was WELCOMED

And again: SAVE THE CHILDREN protest at 42nd st vax hub – 8/4/22

August 4, 2022 . Outside and inside – AGAIN – while protesting to SAVE the Babies from this poison. “Save the Babies. save the Children” protestors, as they arrived, took the protest inside. Then – after police removed them- they continued outside the vax hub warning the parents of the dangers within. The messages on the sidewalk were very clear, as were the verbal warnings. But, sadly, there were parents who took their babies inside anyway.

Flashback from 7/6/22 – Unhappy with the NYPD barricades that were blocking the building at the 42nd vax hub,  there was a brief tug-o-war with the police. All ended well after the points were made

This was tame compared to what the Marxist “thought police ” not only do to the police but to anyone they declare is unfit to walk the earth.

NYC Protestors Stand With Gaza outside IDF – Or NOT

August 8, 2022 . NYC, 6 pm, across from Grand Central in front of “Friends of IDF “(Israel Defense Forces) headquarters. It was VERY hot. in the high 90s, but heat index much higher.

The SOCIALIST Revolution signs were leading the way as they assembled on the sidewalk outside 60 East 42nd st.

Flickr Part 3- the crowd spilled in to the street and the police – as usual- simple adds barricades to protect the ‘palis’ and friends from passing cars. Cause these protestors are going to go wherever THEY want to go.

Video – Part 1 – a look at the crowd as they dutifully CHANT

Video Part 2- Nerdeen Kiswani takes over the chants. (a young protestor faints from the heat) BUT Nerdeen continues (after all-they have a trained MEDIC) They must keep going!

Video part 3 – Nerdeen Kiswani.  The crowd loves here hate filled rhetoric. Always the start speaker. BUT, the very loud amps and her propensity to GROWL makes it difficult to record her every word clearly.

Thee were also a few pro-Israel/pro-IDF supporters across 42ndt. st.

But even those few were an annoyance to the ‘palis’ . SO, they sent a ‘fakestinian’ flag to stand beside them.

Marxist Pacifists disparage 77th & 76th Anniv. of Japan A-Bombs that ended WW2

In 2021-22, the Marxists seemed to be the only ones to remember, though imperfectly, the A-Bombs of 1945. Their one  goal at these protests is  abolishing nuclear weapons.

 ++ Was dropping the atomic bomb justified?++

Dec. 7, 1941 (a day that would live in infamy) to Aug 6-9, 1945 (VJ Day celebrations in Times Sq). BUT, the Japanese aggression is conveniently omitted.

: Gen. Minoru Genda, who helped plan the attack on Pearl Harbor, stated at a Naval Institute event in 1969 that he was not bitter towards the U.S. for dropping the bomb on his hometown of #Hiroshima. He said “if we had the atomic bomb in 1945, we would have dropped it on you.”

Image

The only ‘take away’ for these dedicated Marxist Pacifists is to STOP all things nuclear, demanding NYC to be a Nuclear Free Zone. SO, every August these mostly senior pacifists gather to protest nuclear weapons (AND energy).

Japanese survivors participate – but the speakers both years, were barely amplified so they were difficult to understand.

FIRST: On Aug 6, 2021, at 11 am, the 76th anniversary of Hiroshima and Nagasaki protestors gathered in the courtyard entrance to Mayor Dinkins municipal building across from City Hall.

”Join the Community of NYC Nuclear Weapons Free Heroes”

“Rise and Resist-NY” Marxists demanded that NY City Council Speaker Corey Johnson pass Nuclear Disarmament Legislation Now. They chose this location because the development of the atomic bomb began across Centre street at 270 Broadway, the first headquarters of the Manhattan Project in 1942–43.

The posters focused on the American Marxist pacifists. Their speeches and posters neglected to mention the Japanese civilians victimized by their own Japanese war machine.

Flickr slide show of 76th anniversary of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The Marxist loving “Rise and Resisters -NY” demanded that Speaker Johnson pass Nuclear Disarmament Legislation Now! and join the community of NYC Nuclear Weapons Free Heroes.

aug 6 dinkins

Video – First fellow was reading the legislation demand from his cell phone, un-amplified so audio competed with traffic.

The second was an older fellow (at 1:35) proudly told of a protest at a nuclear submarine (the USS Florida). I didn’t hear a year but I think it was 2018.

The Kings Bay Plowshares Seven. The seven Catholic plowshare activists who disarmed weapons at the Kings Bay Naval Base, Georgia in 2018  are now facing years of prison for their act of disarmament. 

He said he masqueraded as one of 4 workers with hard hats who boarded the submarine …  for 25-30 minutes. Once they unfurled their protest banners, THEN security was called to remove them.  He also said, at the same time, five other protestors with hammers were damaging (a sonar sphere) and mentioned an associate who travels with a smithy  … turning weapons into plowshares; hammered into weapons of soil to create life not take life. “This is how disarmament starts”, he says. [End Video]

Turning now to the 2022 and the 77th Anniversary in Manhattan and  their nuclear anniversary weapons protest.

Mourning the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 (that ended WW2 and saved lives) the Raging Grannies (for Peace) were protesting nuclear bombs and protesting nuclear energy with “No nukes. No Nukes. No Nukes.”

Video 2 – Ringing a  bell for peace & prayer at 77th Anniversary of Hiroshima/Nagasaki.

See phot0 essay at NY Daily News of the 1945 aftermath

[NY Daily News Hiroshima]

The conflict over ”to be nuclear or not” goes on and on. The Marxists  claim to oppose anything nuclear but they are predictably inconsistent …. a Rise and Resist-NY blind spot: a nuclear IRAN (UANI 2017)

Should we expect they will hop-a-boat to the land of Persia and vandalize their nuclear bases? How far would they get with that protest action.

 The real enemies of peace go unchallenged.
It’s the Communist Way : Confuse. Divide. Conquer.

Woke Abortion Rally “4 Reproductive Justice” by the Misinformed – Foley Sq

The usual hard-core left came out out for this rally, propelled by hysteria and disinformation they claimed the “supremes” had not only made abortion ILLEGAL, but gay rights of all kinds would be next.

While those in Foley waited for the marchers to cross the Bklyn Bridge, many here were busy setting up their (mostly) ABORTION-on-demand displays.

Guesstimets of 10,000 protestors marching across the bridge are just that, a guess, but whatever, their arrival would not happen for a couple of hours,

So… no use hanging around after I recorded the signs: “my job was done”.

Yes, Foley Sq. was “alive” with the visual clutter of killing-the-babies activism.


Once the march arrived  with their signs promoting Gay rights, Black rights, Trans rights as well as abortion rights, it was going to be a very big party.

Remember, those who aide-and-abet abortion-on-demand are the Good Guys.

“Abortion Pills” treated like candy (as in the kiddy pool)

IMG_5016 copy
The message this day – and still : FUCK the Supreme Court!

IMG_5017 copy
Oh, and lots of Peace Doves, hanging every where, cause we all know how ‘peaceful’ the left can be.

The police were very visible, but only on the perimeter of Foley Square.

They just seemed to hang while I was there since the march hadn’t come over the bridge yet. (Their presence must have been for the march- not the “party”)

And those Food Trucks. I’ve been to many Foley Sq protests but this was the first time I’ve seen any food trucks lined up like that.

Flickr Slide Show:

IMG_4990 copy

.With all the amplified speakers lined up in front of the stage, it was going to be a VERY LOUD event, so my decision to leave ahead of the crowd was easy.

Short video of the stage with the message-heavy projections:Wokeism Hypocrisy prevails.

.BUT, this isn’t the 60’s. Abortion is not illegal. Abortion has just been thrown back to the States to decide, as it should have been in 1973.

NOT OUTLAWED across the country, it is a State’s issue …

So,  the fear factor ruled …. Ignorance prevailed

As their OUTRAGE … GROWS.

Help Save the Children- the Babies- of NYC – Educate the Parents -Times Sq Protest

July 6, 2022.  Times Square. 42nd st. A new vax-hub set-up to vaccinate, to JAB our babies and toddlers. It is open for business.

Anti-mandate activists pleaded with parents to NOT give their kids, their babies, this experimental jab.

This is one of the locations  NYC where parents are encouraged to bring their BABIES and toddlers to be vaxxed.

 

.After a few mothers and fathers brought their BABIES to the hub, a street theatre mom (who was actually with the protestors) pretended to change her mind and did not enter. (fun)


An odd homeless fellow hung around, stripped off his shirt, even took the time to PONDER his cig as he played to the cameras.

Many inside appear to be Chinese, causing an unsubstantiated reaction that the Chinese are running the hub. [Odd? Or just a coincidence?] Whatever, they were no longer welcoming exposure from the street…SO… the windows were papered over. Now no one can see inside. (this  happened after the first protest)

What was revealed, once inside, was a VERY empty facility, with lots of staff at the ready. Perhaps the low attendance means the parents are protecting their babies from this experimental “vaccine”.

But, doctors are questioning the SCIENCE. (They have from the beginning)

…Perhaps the educating of the parents is working. (we can hope)

[https://nypost.com/2022/07/09/few-toddlers-getting-covid-19-vax-in-the-big-apple/

.Meanwhile, as long as the government is promoting anxiety filled ads, the protests continue. On this day (July 6th) there were about around 20 people who protested babies getting the jab. Pleading with the parents and passersby to  SAVE the Children.

.Police and protestors at one point fought over the use of barricades.

While inside, the staff hid from the protestors behind a black curtained barrier.

Ashamed maybe?

The Top 10 Creepiest and Most Dystopian Things Pushed by the World Economic Forum (WEF)

“It seems criminal that we put out the recommendation to give mRNA COVID vaccines to babies without good data. We really don’t know what the risks are yet. So why push it so hard?” a CDC physician added. A high-level FDA official felt the same way: “The public has no idea how bad this data really is. It would not pass muster for any other authorization.”

And yet, the FDA and the CDC pushed it through. That slap in the face of science may explain why only 2% of parents of children under age five have chosen to get the COVID vaccine, and 40% of parents in rural areas say their pediatricians did not recommend the COVID vaccine for their child.”

.Silencing physicians is not “following the science.” Less absolutism and more humility by the men and women running our public health agencies would go a long way in rebuilding public trust

Thousands protest in Washington Sq after Roe v. Wade overturned

June 24, 2022 . 6:3o pm. Washington Square.
All Out For Abortion Rights


“Divided Supreme Court overturns Roe abortion precedents”
(Link to National Constitution Center)

Took many pictures of the protest, cause there were so many signs. Lots of hidden gems spewed by the misinformed.

“Bodily Autonomy for Transgender Youth…” You’re not saving babies you’re killing WomXn”


Flickr Slide show-
If not in a hurry, take the time to scroll thru the slide show and zero in on the crowd signage. 

IMG_7117 copy

.Scheduled for 6;30 pm in Washington Sq. where the protestors had gathered much earlier.

The place was packed and had spilled into the street by 6:15. Forget filming speakers. (Not that they ever say anything new)

The crowd was young. Very white. And never stopped walking – fast- towards the Washington Sq arch. I couldn’t take pictures fast enough, as they hurried past me. Intensely, like ( the green sign) “Dykes 4 Abortion”

Happy. Smiling. 1973 T’s were popular

No intense anger as many hurried by. Just a crowd looking forward to the PARTY.

(Gays Against Guns, the day before, now THEY were ANGRY)

Of course, their signs were a different matter, like : “Adoptee FOR Abortion”, ” Republicans are for Li X e

News coverage always spoke of an angry crowd, not really, even though most of the signs were certainly pointedly snarky.

Political – they just can’t accept President Trump WAS legitimate.


“Globalize the Intifada” – He was part of the lefty Bike Brigade

Impatient for CHANGE signs.

Rude. Profane.

Many were definitely anti-Religion

Some  of the news coverage:

“A Florida judge has temporarily blocked a ban on abortions after 15 weeks that was set to begin Friday.

Planned Parenthood, the American Civil Liberties Union and abortion providers filed suit to stymie the law, arguing that it violated the state’s constitution.

Parties opposed to the 15-week ban pushed back against the legislation, asserting that the Sunshine State constitution guarantees the right to an abortion.

Their legal challenge leaned on a 1980 amendment that guaranteed a broad right to privacy. The state Supreme Court previously interpreted those rights to include access to abortion.” [NY Post]

Two Comments from NY Post article:

“So the legislature passes the fifteen week ban and the governor signs it. Maybe I am confused, but isn’t this exactly how SCOTUS said that this process is supposed to work? I could have sworn that is what they said in their ruling last Friday. Six days later a judge say’s “sorry….not happening”. Even though the process worked exactly as it is supposed to.” [comment 1]

“Socialicommimarxifascist” shifferbrains, following the U.S. Constitution is what judges are SWORN to do. Only in “socialicommimarxifascist” idiotland do people think otherwise.” [comment 2]

“Forced Motherhood is Female Enslavement”

++
“Thousands of protesters converged in Manhattan’s Washington Square Park One cop estimated there were 17,000 people in the crowd.

New York Attorney General Letitia James (too male too pale Letitia ( 2/6/17) ” We’ve gotta stand up to the Federal Government. We’ve gotta stand up to bullies. We’ve gotta stand up to an administration that is “too male, too pale and too stale”)

On this day, June 24, she grabbed a bullhorn under the park’s renowned arch and slammed the Supreme Court as “radical.”

“Every movement in this country, every revolution we’ve ever experienced in this country, has not been led by elected officials, it’s been led by all of you who are here today to demand justice,” James told protesters.

“The only way we can respond to this political decision is a political response is to vote. Vote for those women who will not have rights to abortion. Vote for all those in harm’s way today. Vote against the Supreme Court of the United States, our radical right-wing Supreme Court.” [NY Post]

Thousands of protesters gather inside Washington Square Park.
Paul Martinka

The  Union Sq. March to Washington Sq. (link has great pics of the different rally locations) Protesters had also crowded Union Square to show anger over end of abortion rights.

++ Here we are, now, on July 2nd, and the nasty RUDE in-your-face leftists are definitely Behaving Badly:

And even nastier, pro-abortion protesters target Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s home:

“Impeach Expand Codify,” and “Liar” with a photo of Barrett printed underneath. Following the decision — which returns the issue of abortion to each of the 50 states —a number of states implemented so-called “trigger laws” that banned or restricted abortion with immediate effect. [NY Post]

SCOTUS security chief asks governors to halt protests at justices’ homes

“The Supreme Court’s security chief has asked officials in Maryland and Virginia to pull the plug on picketing and “threatening activity” outside justices’ homes — after the US Department of Justice dragged its feet on enforcing federal laws barring such protests. (The activist group Ruth Sent Us doxxed the court’s conservative justices in early May, when an unprecedented leak of a draft opinion revealed their plans to overturn Roe v. Wade.)” [NY Post]

And then … there’s THIS development:

“Men are hurrying to get vasectomies in the wake of the bombshell Supreme Court decision to overturn the Roe v. Wade abortion ruling, doctors say.” (Really??) [NY Post]

‘Cause they FEAR this?:  “Green-Haired, Morbidly Obese Leftist Women Call for Sex Strike Over Abortion Ruling (Terms that are very acceptable)

“And so one Twitter user posted a graphic that said: “Women of America: Take the pledge. Because SCOTUS overturned Roe v. Wade, we cannot take the risk of an unintended pregnancy, therefore, we will not have sex with any man — including our husbands — unless we are trying to become pregnant.”  In response, another Twitter user wrote:

“Finally, you figured out how not to get pregnant, that wasn’t that hard was it?” Ouch!

Women of the Left, once again: your terms are more than generous and gratefully accepted.( Robert Spencer)

The entrance to the park was very busy with pedicabs and strollers, not just the climate radicals, even an ambulance attempting to pass as the protestors listened to a few speakers before they “Marched for Science“.

 A steady propaganda diet, fed relentlessly for decades in our schools and by the media has filled generations with fear. The Planet is doomed without Climate Justice. Part 2 slide show :

.Video # 1– First, before the climate protestors “Marched for Science”, a short video with lots of chanting:

“What do we want? Justice. If we don’t get it shut it down.” “No more Coal. No more Oil. Keep your (climate) in the soil.”  and of course:  “Hey Hey Ho Ho Climate Change has Got to Go”

And signs. Lots of signs:

“Climate Action Now; Fight For Our Future; Dayenu ; Enough with the Climate Conspiracy; Ban Fracking Now; The Climate Crisis is Here” and my personal favorite:”Destroy the Patriarchy, Not the Planet.”


Video 2- Four speakers represented the youthful protestors: High school and college-age. They spoke briefly (excerpted)

“Climate Justice IS Political. No more Fossil Fuel infrastructure. No New Jails. Demand Green spaces in our infrastructure.”

“March for Science is not just non-partisan, it is political. To live on this earth is to be affected by the climate crisis. To live in this city. This country is to be affected by politics.”

“Demand climate justice for all communities. Demand it now. Science not Silence.”

And of course,  “Show me what democracy looks like. This is what democracy looks like“

Video 3 – A very political young man with a very POLITICAL speech, (excerpted) exposing the depth of his hard-core indoctrination:

“I am here to demand a livable future for us all. Administration after administration. Congress after Congress. My entire lifetime we have been promised a livable future and we have been delivered NOTHING. That’s what this movement is about. Our collective energy to demand  Climate Justice.”

Re the midterm elections.  “To decide the balance of Congress. Our Senate. Our House of Rep. It is on us to demand a better future by showing up at the ballot.

We know the climate crisis impacts vulnerable communities, the most intensely. Black. Brown. Indigenous. People of color. LGTBQ. The communities most intensely impacted by climate crisis. Those are the same communities, there are over 400 Bills – across the country to stop those communities from voting. we will not STAND for Voter Suppression. we will not STAND for the demolition of our democracy. We will stand on the streets and DEMAND a BETTER FUTURE.

50 years of empty promises. VOTE so we can ensure a livable planet. This is what democracy looks like.“

Video 4 : Melissa from March for Science NYC:

“Science is Political “(again) “But it should never be partisan. No matter what party is in power, we should have science evidence policy on the table. We should remain vigilant no matter who is in power. Currently in NY State,  3 Democrat leaders who claim to Follow the Science. It has not been enough. We need to know our worth and to ask for more. To ask for more climate action now. We are experiencing not just climate change, but a climate crisis. And we need to act like it. We need bold and consistent action to save our planet and our species. 

We cannot play politics with our environment; we need bold and consistent action to reverse climate change. This year at the Federal level, with the mid-term elections, to vote, hold accountable, get things passed like the Build Back Better Bill and the Voting Rights Act, which together will us fight Climate Change. We need climate action now, not in five years.

[lastly] …  cut back on our emissions from our fossil fuel buildings. This is critical. 70% of fossil fuels emissions from the city come from our buildings. We are one of the biggest polluters in the country. Hold all leaders accountable no matter what party they are in; no matter how much they try to distract us mediocre and symbolic actions. We will not be appeased. We know our worth. the worth of our planet.“

Video 5 – Jillian is a virologist and mother of two. She mentions pandemic parenting and how the pandemic has intertwined the two.

“In the Spring of 2020, while her colleagues at Mt. Sinai worked round the clock, she was at home with her 3 and 6 yrs old children. Day care and schools were closed, the city was on lock-down. While quarantined and home-schooling her two small children, she was also answering Covid questions from scared friends and family –  fighting the endless disinformation about the pandemic.“

She shared that she was grateful for the questions, it meant people actually cared about the data.

“After more than two years of this pandemic, I know how easy it is to let cynicism win. Parents are exhausted, particularly of under 5 yrs olds. We faced school closures. had to weigh risks and benefits of sending our un-vaccinated kids to ‘in-person’ schools. It’s been scary and demoralizing.Parents of kids who are too young to be vaccinated feel ignored and betrayed. Masks mandates being dropped while there is still no vaccine approved for kids in their age group. I hear your rage and frustration. Demand change from our political leaders. As adults it is our responsibility to leave the world a better place for our children than we inherited. Finally, Science should be for everyone. I encourage all my …. scientists to break out of the bubble. The most meaningful science in the past two years … it’s been communicating with my friends, my family and my social circle. Those conversations matter.”

Video 6: 14 yrs old student activist named, Theo.   After the crowd chanted “Stand up, Fight Back” Theo told us of a Walk-Out For Covid Safety that he led.  they are upset that Mayor Adams ignored their demands:

“K95 masks for all. Covid testing for every student in our socio-economic status. Quality air-filtration in all our schools.  (unclear “…. “) a new generation of scientists to combat any future pandemic we may face’ Today we march and tomorrow you will listen.”

.10th Day of the Rebellion as rebels take midtown

“We are heading for catastrophe. This is the type of actions we must take to stop the #ClimateCrisis before it will be to late … …chanting for action on climate change.” FOX news; Bryant Park  sit in on the corner of 42nd and 6th Ave. [Extinction Rebellion]

The climate activists tried to stop  N.Y. Post from publishing.

“We fight for a just world and stand in solidarity with the struggle for Black Lives. Take action for Black Lives and support radical Black leadership. End white supremacy now.” #BlackLivesMatter
