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.
