Pro-life demonstrators can be heard shouting “abortion is not a human right,” and holding signs stating “protect the pre-born.” At one point, they began chanting, “hey hey, ho ho, Roe v Wade has got to go.”
Pro-abortion protesters respond by shouting “you’re ugly” and carry signs that read “f*ck you” and "hands off our bodies."
Abortion supporters have been protesting since the leaked draft Supreme Court opinion revealed the majority of the justices indicated that they would overturn the 1973 Roe v Wade ruling, which legalized abortion nation-wide.

Mofokeng was the lead specialist in an amicus brief to the supreme court, sometimes called a “friend of the court” brief, in which she urged justices not to reverse US abortion rights on human rights grounds.
In both her brief and interview with the Guardian, she announced a reversal of Roe v Wade would, “legitimize the use of morality and theological reasoning” to take away human rights, empower anti-rights activists globally, criminalize the practice of medicine, undermine the doctor-patient relationship and expose healthcare providers and patients to heightened abuse and violence.
