WATCH: Pro-Abortion Activists Pour Fake Blood Down Los Angeles City Hall Steps, Chain Themselves to Building

A group of four pro-abortion activists chained themselves to the Los Angeles City Hall and poured a massive amount of fake blood down the steps on Wednesday.

The protest appears to have been organized by a group calling themselves “Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights.”

“ACTIVISTS ARE STILL CHAINED TO THE LOS ANGELES CITY HALL DEMANDING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO RESTORE LEGAL ABORTION NATIONWIDE RIGHT NOW!” the group tweeted just before 3 p.m. local time.

The protesters staged a “die in” for dramatic effect.

The group was detained shortly after that tweet, but were released about an hour later.

“Four activists doing nonviolent civil disobedience, and calling for the federal government to restore legal abortion nationwide NOW, were just detained by 50-60 police officers outside of the City Hall in Los Angeles,” the group wrote in an update.
