So why hasn't Planned Parenthood been outlawed, and all the billions of dollars demanded back by the government?

Slogans mean nothing without concrete action. The criminality of PP has already been exposed, but no one has been charged or prosecuted.

The slogan is grammatically incorrect. It should be "A Baby's Life Matters" or "Babies Lives Matter"
Sorry, but you’re incorrect. You have the singular possessive and plural forms. To be consistent you need the plural possessive, which is “babies’ lives matter.” That is babies with an apostrophe after the s. Take it from an old English teacher. ;)

But I would go with what they have in the pic to make it sound consistent with the original.

"Baby Lives Matter" is using "baby" adjectivally, same as the slogan "Black Lives Matter", "black lives", "baby lives". You may be more correct to say "Infant Lives Matter", but I think Baby Lives Matter is to be preferred semantically, particularly to reference BLM.


Better slogan appeal!

Much love!

There there is, Baby lives matter, where Baby is the Subject, lives the Verb, and Matter the direct object?

:confused:
Lol! How can a baby live matter? How can anyone live matter?

We can live with matter or around matter or on matter....
