Henson says that amid the Supreme Courts overturning of Roe v. Wade, firearms in the United States have more rights than women. Its about damn time we talk about the fact that guns have more rights than a woman, the Empire star said as she delivered a monologue Sunday as host of the BET Awards in Los Angeles. Its a sad day in America, Henson, 51, said. A weapon that can take lives has more power than a woman who can give life, if she chooses to, the Hidden Figures actor told the audience. On Thursday, the Supreme Court struck down a New York state law that made it difficult to obtain a permit to carry a handgun outside the home, marking a major expansion of gun rights. The following day, the Supreme Court reversed the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, which had established the constitutional right to an abortion. Henson wasnt the only performer who spoke out against the Roe v. Wade decision at BETs annual awards ceremony. Janelle Mone, one of the nights presenters, took to the stage to denounce the ruling. The Make me Feel singer praised artists making art on our own terms, owning our truth and expressing ourselves freely and unapologetically in a world that tries to control and police our bodies, my body, and our decision, my decisions. Fuck you, Supreme Court, Mone said to cheers, as she raised her middle finger. --- Not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6, not 7 <cite>Lebronwon posted [p:966178526] in Taraji P. ...
