#YouKnowMe: Minka Kelly, Amber Tamblyn and More Share Their Abortion Stories Amid Controversial [tr]
Entertainment Tonight ^ | May 16,2019 | Paige Gawley‍

Celebrities are coming forward with their personal abortion stories. As more and more states -- including Georgia, Alabama and Missouri -- continue to pass legislation greatly restricting and nearly banning all abortion, several stars are speaking out against the bills by sharing their own stories alongside the hashtag #YouKnowMe. Busy Philipps came up with the phrase and hashtag when she discussed her abortion on her late-night show, Busy Tonight. "The statistic is that one in four women will have an abortion before age 45. That statistic sometimes surprises people, and maybe you're sitting there thinking, 'I don't know a woman who would have an abortion,'" Philipps said. "Well, you know me." She followed up her speech with a tweet encouraging women to write about their own experience with abortion to "share your truth."

I would be more surprised if any female celebrity has not had an abortion (or two or more).

“I would be more surprised if any female celebrity has not had an abortion (or two or more).”

It would be a MUCH shorter list.

I can remember when unmarried and pregnant girls/women went out of town/state to “spend time with the extended family” until they gave birth and the baby was adopted.

I hate this new world.

Have ANY actresses spoken out against abortion this week?

The media is using famous spokeswomen to get their message out. Any voices from the other side?

I can remember....... ‘Those who look to the Lord are radiant, their faces are never covered with shame’.......Psalm 34:5

Our nation has lost its sense of ‘shame’

I think it would be beneficial to counter their #YouKnowMe with a #YouWillNeverKnowMe.

I'm your child whom you viciously ripped from my temporary home. God placed me there for safekeeping until I was strong enough to brave the world. You Chose to take that away from me. I could have been the greatest thing that ever happened to you. Now I am the dirty secret you are burdened with for the rest of your life.

I sit with the Father now. I pray he forgives you for your selfish and irresponsible regard for life.

“Our nation has lost its sense of ‘shame’”

Yes it has.
The communists have done their job in tearing apart the moral fabric of our nation in pursuit of toppling us.
Even Joseph Stalin knew no country could successfully invade and conquer the US. So they did it from within by destroying our morality and educational system.
