Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin held a celebration of abortion — aka commemoration of the anniversary of Roe v. Wade — on Tuesday, January 24. Fittingly enough, at a place called the Jackalope Lounj.
In an interview, PPWI spokeswoman Stephanie Wilson admitted that “about” 65 people attended (translation: she rounded up, included staff who attended, and she expected a lot more.)
Ife: Was this the first year that you held an event in Milwaukee like this in honor of the Roe v. Wade decision?
Stephanie: We hold celebratory events for the Roe anniversary each year to hightly the importance of women’s access to health care.
Ife: What was the purpose of the night’s event (i.e. awareness, increase activism, recruit)?
Stephanie: We wanted to bring our friends and supporters together to celebrate the monumental decision that changed women’s health care. We want to make people aware of not only the anniversary, but of the fights we’re still fighting in Wisconsin, and get them engaged in our work.
Ife: Was it well attended?
Stephanie: Yes, we had about 65 people there.
This, in comparison to the hundreds of thousands of pro-life youth who swarmed Washington, D.C. this past weekend. This, in comparison to the 100 people we drew to a single Empty Manger Christmas Caroling event in Milwaukee on a Friday morning.
Abortion isn’t popular, and it’s on the way out. Legalized abortion will end in our lifetime.
