Over the weekend, pro-choice demonstrators demonstrated outside Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s home, dressed in fake blood and cradling baby dolls.
The demonstrators marched to the judge’s house in Falls Church, Virginia, on Saturday, holding placards that included one with a coat hanger that said, “Not going back.”
The young advocates, who were members of the Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights movement, taped their hands together and clutched the plastic baby dolls.
Ariana, a 15-year-old demonstrator, stated in a video uploaded by the organization, “This is what Amy’s America looks like. Children will be forced to give birth to children. Women will be silenced. Women will be invalidated. Women will be told they are less than. And that is not OK. We cannot let that happen. You can’t let this future happen to us. It’s not fair,”
We aren't incubators! Youth procession delivered baby dolls to Amy Coney Barrett.

The demonstration was dubbed the “Women Are Not Incubators Youth Procession” by the organization, which promotes slogans such as “forced motherhood = female enslavement.”
The group claims it is not attempting to persuade women-hating Nazis to alter their beliefs, but rather is urging the pro-choice majority in the United States to prevent the Supreme Court from overturning the abortion-rights decision Roe v. Wade.
The Supreme Court is expected to announce this week whether it will overrule the landmark abortion ruling.
The majority of Americans feel it is inappropriate to demonstrate outside the residences of Supreme Court justices. A majority of Republicans are in the group, while 58 percent of Democrats find nothing wrong with the protests.
Therefore, 37% say the demonstrations are justified.
The survey was conducted after word broke that an armed California man had been apprehended at Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s house.
