yes, well, i actually met jane roe, norma mccorvey, at a pro—choice demonstration after roe versus wade we work together, she had her voice heard, helped with that, then she became anti—choice, but as a deathbed confession she confessed she essentially only do that for the money, became anti—choice, she was always pro—choice. but as to me, i have clearly been pro—choice for many years, own life experience, because when i was in my 20s, i went to mexico on a vacation, i was raped at gunpoint by a doctor. i came back to california, this was of the 60s, it was unlawful, it was a crime for a woman to have an abortion at that time in california. it wasn't a crime for the woman but it was a crime for a doctor or nurse or licensed health care professional to provide one, so i had to go to a back alley person who did it for the money, who then left me in a bathtub, haemorrhaging, bleeding, blood all over me, and ultimately someone called and ultimately someone called an ambulance for me, and i was taken toa an ambulance for me, and i was taken to a hospital, and packed in ice with a 106 degrees

the women's rights attorney, gloria allred, who defended norma mccorvey, otherwise known as jane roe, is reversed. some of them have already done so, in violation of the constitution. others have triggered laws, meaning those laws banning abortion will go into effect on the 1st ofjuly with the 1st of august if and when roe v wade is struck down. so this is very dangerous. what is even more dangerous is that some of the states which were what we call havant states, states where women who lived in states where abortion became a crime could go to the other states, like the women in texas who couldn't get an abortion after six weeks would go to the nearby state of oklahoma to get a legal abortion. oklahoma has now passed a law that is like texas's law which also bans abortion, so they won't have that status of haven. many women will not have the funds to travel to save states like california where i am now, or new york or other states where abortion is protected and will remain legal. they will not have the bus fare or train fare, they won't have gas for their cars. they won't be able to
