- Well, it's just like right after that, right? We were out there in front of the court, you know, me and the guys
- 00:05
- I was with to go back to our hotel room. We get on the elevator and some woman asked who we're with and what we're doing.
- 00:10
- And we told her and she immediately starts cursing at us, you know, dropping F -bombs, you know, and we're like, hey,
- 00:16
- God bless you. Have a nice day. Is that that just makes it worse, right? She just keeps on.
- 00:22
- Yeah. He's cursing at us. And yeah, a lot of the pro -life movement is like, oh, that poor victim.
- 00:27
- That lady, she's just a victim. She doesn't know what she's doing. Now, they know. Yeah. I mean, how many shirts do we see that day,
- 00:34
- Bradley, where, you know, people were who had shirts on rejoicing over their abortions, like just so thankful for their abortions, like saying how many abortions that they had.
- 00:46
- These are not victims. These are people taking abortion pills in front of the Supreme Court. Yeah.
- 00:51
- Like hopefully they were just doing it. You know, hopefully they weren't pregnant, but they have been.
- 00:57
- I mean, they may have been actively killing their children right there, right there in front of the Supreme Court. That's exactly right. They are not victims.
- 01:02
- And we need to stop treating like they're victims because you don't treat other crimes like that. But we've been worked on by our culture to see the woman who actually and the man, by the way, who participates in the issue of abortion as victims themselves, victims of their circumstances, victim of the culture that they're in, all of that.
- 01:18
- And so we don't treat sex trafficking that way. We don't treat slavery that way. We don't treat theft that way. We don't even treat murder and other circumstances in that way.
- 01:25
- But we do with abortion, which says that we've been worked on by our culture and we've been worked on by the pro -life industry and the people who are leading this fight.
- 01:33
- When they say that both mother and baby are both equally victims, it needs to be seen as a crime. We need to work for equal protection for all human beings from the moment of conception.
- 01:43
- And that's what we're doing. I mean, it's amazing thing when we put in these bills of of equal protection in the states, we're saying what the pro -life industry says they believe.
- 01:53
- We're saying simply, ready? It's human from conception. All humans deserve to be protected.
