This protest was only one of the protest rallies. Thousands of similar rallies were held today all across the United States, and hundreds of people showed up at the rallies in America's largest cities.
This is a quote from the Twitter account of Life News that was posted today (August 22nd):
"How Can Planned Parenthood Say Babies Aren’t People When It Harvests Their Organs?"
These are the first four paragraphs of a story published today by the Washington Post. The Twitter account of the White House Press Corps linked to it. The link in the fourth paragraph was in their story.
Thousands of antiabortion activists descended upon Planned Parenthood clinics on Saturday to participate in a nationwide protest aimed at cutting off federal funding for the controversial health-care
organization.
The demonstrations unfolded at about 320 clinics around the nation, according to organizers, with some gatherings drawing a few dozen protesters and others drawing hundreds and perhaps
thousands more.
The protests kicked off at 9 a.m. Saturday and included speakers, prayer groups and chants, as well as signs distributed by organizers that said “Planned Parenthood sells baby
parts.”
The protests come after an antiabortion group secretly filmed a series of videos that show Planned Parenthood staffers discussing the extraction of fetal tissue from aborted fetuses before it is sent to research facilities. Abortion opponents claim the video captures an illegal operation in which organs are harvested for money, but Planned Parenthood officials have claimed the videos were edited to bolster critics’ false claims, according to the Associated Press.

This is what the museum looks like on the outside, but unlike most buildings, the interior of this one has a large interior courtyard with a glass roof that allows sunlight to light up the art and to keep a large collection of plants alive.
In the early morning hours of March 18, 1990, a pair of thieves disguised as Boston police officers entered the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and roamed the Museum’s galleries, stealing thirteen works of art.
They gained entry into the Museum by posing as Boston police officers and stating that they were responding to a call. The guard on duty broke protocol and allowed them entry through the Museum’s security door.
Once inside, the thieves asked that the guard come around from behind the desk, claiming that they recognized him and that there was a warrant out for his arrest. The guard walked away from the desk and away from the only alarm button. The guard was told to summon the other guard on duty to the security desk, which he did. The thieves then handcuffed both guards and took them into the basement where they were secured to pipes and their hands, feet, and heads duct taped. The two guards were placed 40 yards away from each other in the basement.
The next morning, the security guard arriving to relieve the two night guards discovered that the Museum had been robbed and notified the police and director Anne Hawley.

This man was the director of security for the museum. He is still trying to recover the art.
“Today, we are pleased to announce that the FBI has made significant investigative progress in the search for the stolen art from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum,” said Richard DesLauriers, special agent in charge of the FBI’s Boston Field Office. “We’ve determined in the years after the theft that the art was transported to the Connecticut and Philadelphia regions. But we haven’t identified where the art is right now, and that’s why we are asking the public for help.”
“With these considerable developments in the investigation over the last couple of years,” said Special Agent Geoff Kelly, who heads the FBI investigation, “it’s likely over time someone has seen the art hanging on a wall, placed above a mantel, or stored in an attic. We want that person to call the FBI.”
There is a $5 million reward for the return of the art
These paragraphs were also copied from the same page of the F.B.I. website as the previous two paragraphs.
Anthony Amore, the Gardner Museum’s chief of security, explained that the museum is offering a $5 million reward “for information that leads directly to the recovery of all of our items in good condition. What that means is that you don’t have to hand us the paintings to be eligible for the reward.” Amore added, “We hope that through this type of public campaign, people will see how earnest we are in our attempts to pay this reward and make our institution whole.”
Officials stressed that anyone with information about the artwork can contact the FBI, the museum, or the U.S. Attorney’s Office directly or through a third party. “An individual who wishes to protect his or her identity can go through an attorney and the reward can be paid through an attorney,” Amore said. “There is no shortage of ways to get information to us. We simply want to recover our paintings and move forward. This is the 23rd anniversary of the robbery,” he said. “It’s time for these paintings to come home.”
We need your help: If you have information about the missing Gardner Museum artwork, you can contact the FBI’s hotline at 1-800-CALL-FBI or submit a tip on our website. All information will be held in the strictest confidence.
The FBI says both of the suspects who masqueraded as police officers
to rob a Boston art museum of $500 million worth of masterpieces in 1990
are deceased.
Two years ago, investigators announced they knew who stole the 13 works — including paintings by Rembrandt and Vermeer — from Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. They refused to elaborate at the time, saying only that the investigation was now focused on recovering the missing artwork.
A painting by Rembrandt was once located inside this empty frame.
Please excuse this editorial comment
The Federal Bureau of Investigation is not always a professional organization.
A truly professional law enforcement organization will investigate, arrest, and prosecute people regardless of race, creed, color, sex, etc. The man in the following YouTube video has never been arrested for speaking these words or for encouraging people to commit murder based on their belief that the victims belong to a different race than their own.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has a responsibility to protect the public from potential murderers and their friends.
They must look objectively at this video.
They must collect usable evidence from this video and other sources, including the name and the current address of the person who is easily identifiable by his looks and his voice.
They must give this evidence to a U.S. Attorney who has the legal authority to prosecute Federal crimes that are committed in the city that this crime took place in, with a recommendation that this man be arrested and prosecuted before he can carry out his threats.
King Samir Shabazz
It is possible that the F.B.I. is protecting the people who have illegal possession of the stolen artwork because they are friends of Mr. Shabazz.
The F.B.I. can easily prove that I am wrong by arresting Mr. Shabazz for no other reason than the fact that he has encouraged people to commit a hate crime, which, as I have already said, is a Federal crime.
Federal crimes can be investigated by the F.B.I., and if there is enough evidence that a Federal crime has been committed, the criminal can be arrested by the F.B.I. and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law by a U.S. Attorney.
The F.B.I. did investigate when some "anti-Muslim" flyers were found at a subway station in a Boston suburb. Link to a story dated February 21, 2015 on the website of the ABC-TV affiliate in Boston. The F.B.I. should also investigate the potential genocide of another race (in the mind of Mr. Shabazz) that he is so actively encouraging by his recorded words, made public by the person who uploaded the YouTube video.
