Pro-abortion protesters took to the streets of Los Angeles, California, on Friday — and held up traffic on the highway — to express their support for the systematic killing of unborn children.
“This decision must not stand! Legal abortion on demand!” the protesters repeatedly chanted in the streets of the crime-ridden city of Los Angeles.

“Do they not know abortion is and will remain legal in California?” one Twitter user reacted.
“Who wants to tell them that abortion will be legal in California and this ruling won’t affect a single woman living there,” another echoed.
On Friday, the Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade, holding in the Dobbs case that the Constitution does not include a right to abortion, and returning the issue of abortion laws and regulations to state legislatures.
Pro-abortion protesters in the Democrat-controlled city of Los Angeles — encased in California, run by a Democrat governor — nonetheless took to the streets in droves.

After that, police were seen confronting pro-abortion protesters on the highway, ordering them to “Exit the freeway.”
The demonstrators reacted by chanting, “Whose streets? Our streets!” while one individual could be seen lying on the ground, dancing.
