Jane Fonda issued a strong response to the reversal of Roe v. Wade.
She tweeted on Tuesday, âIf a corporation can be defined as a person, why not redefine vaginas as AK47s.â
Fonda added, âThat way theyâd be free of governmental restrictions by those who care about âthe sanctity of life.'â
Last month, Fonda commented on the leak of the Supreme Court draft decision showing the landmark ruling could be overturned.
She said during an appearance on âThe View,â âThe same type of people that support this ending of Roe v. Wade, ending the idea that a woman has the right to control her own body, are the same people that donât want to be vaccinated.â
Fonda continued, â, âDonât tell me what to do, the government canât be involved in what I shoot into my body,â and yet theyâre willing to support taking away from a woman her constitutional right, her human right, to determine what happens to her body and if she has or doesnât have a child. Itâs unconscionable.â
She told viewers to âfight like hell to not allow this to happen.â
The actress went on to say if it did get overturned, people should âfight like hell through the vote.â
Fonda argued Americans âallowed someone to be elected to office who has put three fringe, right-wing people into the Supreme Court, which is supposed to be a non-political, non-activist body.â
According to her, âThis is the most activist, politically oriented, narrowly focused Supreme Court in United States history, so we have to vote, we have to mobilize to get out the vote in the midterm elections and in 2024 to make sure that we donât put in office anyone who does not support womenâs right to choose and doesnât understand the crisis called the climate crisis, which we have only eight years to address.â
The political activist is not the only celebrity to react strongly to the ruling.
Actress Bette Midler invoked Viagra into her reaction, as IJR reported.
âTime to ban Viagra,â Midler tweeted.
She added, âBecause if pregnancy is âGodâs willâ, then so is your limp d***.â
Additionally, during the 2022 BET Awards Sunday night, celebrities took the opportunity to speak out against the ruling.
