Speechless, Yet Not Surprised At All

A pretty horrific yet accurate portrait of the US at the moment.

This issue is not up for debate. Everyone is entitled to their own personal feelings about the topic of abortion. What you are not entitled to is to make that decision for someone else and I will not entertain any discussion otherwise.

  1. Yeah pretty much sums it up.

  2. America.... BOLDLY going backwards to the 1950's. HOPEFULLY this will ensure a high turnout in the Midterms for Democrats so that they can do SOMETHING about this shit!

    1. I hope so, but fuck! Democrats are tip-toeing around, the media won't call this what it is, and last time I checked we were a nation founded on THE SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE. This is not a win for God, as so many zealots are claiming. The US already has the highest maternal death rate in the entire developed world. Those numbers are going to skyrocket. I can't fucking stand this shit and I will do whatever it takes to make sure Eleanor grows up with the same (and more) rights that I had.

    1. I saw this post the other day, a friend shared it:
      When you were asked to mask to save lives - you said no, my body, my rights.
      When you were asked to vaccinate to save lives - you said no, my body, my rights.
      When we demand strict gun laws to save lives - you said this is the land of the free.
      But you want to decide what a woman does with her body.

    2. Exactly. I can’t believe this is the state of our country right now. And fuck everyone who said I was overreacting in 2016. I was told SO many times (usually by dudes) that Row would never be overturned.

    3. I'm so sad to see where everything is going right now. I know we talked about this before and you just cannot talk to those people who support the right. You are right on the verge of a dictatorship.

    4. SCOTUS is definitely attempting its own coup at this point.

    5. Yup, they are right in the middle of it. And with the support of many, many Republicans.
