The rise of 'abortion abolitionists' targeting women, doctors and Donald Trump
Operation Save America members promote legislation that would pave the way for women to be prosecuted and potentially locked up for ending a pregnancy.
CINCINNATI — The group of anti-abortion crusaders showed up outside Hughes STEM High School just before 3 p.m. As students streamed out of the building, the men and women walked after them carrying large cards emblazoned with a picture of a fetus.
“Pre-born children are blessings to be received, not burdens to be destroyed,” read the other side of the literature.
One man took the lead in tracking down the predominantly Black students and handing out the cards. At one point, he spent three minutes talking to a small group of girls.
“I feel inspired,” a 15-year-old said afterward.
But the scene took a turn when the principal, Jennifer Williams, walked out and demanded they move off the main path to the school. “The pathway to the crosswalk is being blocked and that’s not okay,” Williams said.
