(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) Democrat prosecutors and district attorneys across the country have pledged to join the abortion insurrection and ignore state laws regarding abortion in the wake of Roe v Wade‘s overturning.
District Attorneys in Georgia, Louisiana, Texas and Tennessee have all said that they plan to ignore any prosecution of illegal abortion activity, U.S. News reported.
Radical leftist lesbian Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel has also said that she plans to ignore Michigan’s laws.
Others have made vocal commitments not to criminally prosecute women or providers within their jurisdictions for receiving or providing abortions.
“Politicians do not belong in our doctor’s offices, they don’t belong in our bedrooms and should not be making these kinds of decisions on behalf of the American public and behalf of women across America,” Nessel said.
Sherry Boston, district attorney of Georgia’s DeKalb County, has said that abortions will still take place, so she does not plan to enforce the law.
“It’s really just going to make our communities less safe,” Boston said.
“And as the district attorney who took an oath to protect my community, I think it’s important for me to have policies in place that do just that for the community that I serve.”
Orleans Parish District Attorney Jason Williams tweeted out his commitment, minimizing the gravity of the issue.
One year ago, I wrote in @Time that I refuse to prosecute pregnancy. That has not changed. My office is focused on pursuing accountability and justice for the most serious, violent crimes committed against our people. pic.twitter.com/oCYi6VqJQu

“I cannot and will not shift the priority from tackling shootings, rapes and carjackings to investigating the choices women make with regard to their own bodies,” he said in a statement.
He also wrote an op-ed for the leftist Time magazine, suggesting that the overturning of Roe is racist.
“When people of color and people with low income are denied access to basic forms of health care, including prenatal and maternal care, as a consequence of prejudice, and when they’re arrested, charged and prosecuted for decisions that were made before, during or after pregnancy, it extends injustice in waves that have a ripple effect throughout families, neighborhoods and communities.”
