      This Tuesday, May 21st, at six thirty in the evening, a Planned Parenthood action will take place on the steps of Pasadena City Hall.

      By News Desk

      With gatherings at statehouses, town squares, and courthouses across the nation –with other events throughout the week– Planned Parenthood supporters are showing up to speak out and fight back against the unconstitutional attempt to gut Roe and punish women.

      In Pasadena, Rooted in Resistance, and Planned Parenthood Pasadena, have teamed up to organize a gathering and invite “every single other person in Pasadena and the San Gabriel Valley area who is disturbed by the draconian anti-abortion and anti-woman laws being passed in states all over the country.”

      Organizers are asking supporters to make a sign if they have time, otherwise, just show up and show your support.

      If you live outside the area, you can use the following link to sign up or to find a location near you.

        I wonder if they really know what they are standing for and if they do how they can look at themselves in the mirror.

                Briony James I gave birth to 5 healthy children, raised them into adulthood. Why can’t these women use protection and therefore would be protecting the innocent lives of the unborn. Don’t you realize your hypocrisy in supporting the slaughter of innocents, but call me mean because I said that their mothers should have killed them. If they had, I wonder just how many innocent, helpless babies would have been saved. If I were mean, I would agree with them.

                  Sophia Latham just because someone is pro choice doesnt meant that they are running out and getting abortions left and right. I find it very hypocritical that you are pro life and in the same breath wishing someone’s mother aborted them. How about next time you see a post you dont agree with, you continue to scroll down. We dont need your negativity.

                    You are the only hypocrite that I am reading. Why didn’t you keep your opinion to yourself and keep scrolling. What makes your opinion more worthy than mine. Those women on the steps are advocating killing unborn, helpless human beings. whether or not they themselves get abortions, they are advocating that it is the thing to do. Don’t lie down without protection and then you don’t have to harm, mutilate and slaughter the unborn!!!!!

                      Briony James Planned Parenthood supports full term abortions and live birth murder. Supporting them in this agenda supports this practice. If you support women’s choice, then advocate for contraceptive education. This was the original idea behind Planned Parenthood – not abortion on demand at any stage of pregnancy.

                        Sophia Latham yes you’re right, but I’m not the one trolling here…you are. I welcome an alternative. What plans do you have for helping a woman who changes her mind and decides to keep her child? Do you promote sex education? Free health clinics? Resources to help the mother care for the child that she cant afford to keep? Free daycare so she can go to work? We don’t have systems in place to help these women.

                          Agreed, the government needs to help with these issues. I am not trolling, not a nice description. I raised my five children alone as their dad was no help to us. I just don’t agree with killing babies because it is the easier way out. PROTECTION IS THE BEST WAY around the abortion issue. There should be exceptions for certain issues. Not saying to get rid of a woman’s rights.
