A crowd of at least two hundred, so far, are at BOK Center in downtown Tulsa to protest the fall of Roe v. Wade. This crowd is at least as big as the protest last week, if not bigger, and it’s still growing. #RoeVWade #RoeVWadeprotest

A fight between a woman who got out of her car to heckle the car just broke out, but the woman just drove away after several protesters broke up the fight.

Meanwhile, this is a crowd of counter protesters on the other side of the street who are holding bibles and signs that say “murderer.”

As the pro-choice crowd keeps growing, protesters and counter protesters are yelling at each other from across 3rd Street.

Pro-choice protesters have overran the anti-abortion protesters’ side of the street.

The crowd is now beginning to March on the sidewalks of second street.

The crowd is marching south on the sidewalks of Boulder Ave. now, and hundreds more are still at BOK center waiting to join in the March.

“Separate Church and State.” #RoeVWade

#RoeVWade Tulsa. Protesters are pouring into the place in front of the Tulsa County Courthouse.

The organizer of today’s protest, in the tie-dyed shirt, is a 17-year-old high schools student, fyi, if any young person thinks they aren’t able to make a difference or raise their voices.

“I March because someone long ago marched for me.” #RoeVWade Tulsa

“It’s a scary time and it’s an angry time. For as long as I’ve known about my people’s history, the government has always tried to control us,” said Shadow Hardbarger (left) a Cherokee and Crow woman.

Surprisingly, the anti-abortion protesters (the men in polos and ties) are still here. I was told police escorted some counter protesters away earlier. They’re all carrying bibles and arguing or debating with pro-choice protesters.

It doesn’t appear the protest will end anytime soon. Hundreds are still here, though they are migrating southward with the shade.

Clarification to this: I’ve been told a protester threw a cup at the woman’s car, which began the fight. I only saw the woman already out of her car arguing with protesters, so I can’t confirm what started the fight. It only lasted a few minutes, though.

The anti-abortion protesters are telling the crowd “god will judge you” and the pro-choice protesters and are telling them to go home.

Pro-choice protesters: “we are the majority.”
Anti-abortion protesters: “the majority is going to hell.”

The original counter protesters left, but a new anti-abortion protester has appeared

It appears to be one or two men, but they can’t be heard over the crowd of pro-choice protesters.

“Rape and incest is not God’s will.”

The protest at the Tulsa County Courthouse has pretty much come to an end now. A few small groups say they are going to walk around a little longer to protest.
