33 years later....


33 women, young and old, stood with Phil Angelides today in Sacramento commemorating the 33rd Anniversary of Roe vs. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that legalized a women's right to choose throughout the United States.

The event included women from the Sacramento County Young Democrats, Capitol Young Democrats, Sacramento State Young Democrats, and Mira Loma High School Young Democrats.

Comments:
It was a great turn out. Speeches were great, especially Chelsea from NOW. She kicked butt!

It's our fight to stick up for our rights... do something!
 
You'd think that a photograph on the 33rd anniversary of Roe wouldn't be taken with giant grins all around... You must realize that even if you don't think you're killing babies, it's nothing to be HAPPY about...

Abortion is a terrible thing, even if you feel it's necessary...
 
You are right about the smiling. It's a pretty serious topic. I think Angeledes got the idea from this event from The Kids in the Hall. They had this sketch where there were a bunch of women standing in a field. THey were all called Helen. It woudl say "30 Helens agree..." then say what they agree about.

Here's phil and his 33 Helens.
