What is next for the United States?
May 14, 2019 at 11:12 pm
Sorry, I wasn’t sure if this belonged in news or politics so I just guessed. I can move it if I need to.
So, Alabama just passed a total ban on abortion. It’s debatable whether Alabama’s law or Georgia’s is worse. Alabama bans all abortions, but doesn’t punish women only providers. Georgia’s ban allows for abortion up to 6 weeks, but not only does it punish women for having illegal bans, it also punishes women for planning to leave the state to have a legal abortion and could potentially punish women with prison time for having a miscarriage.
Both of these are pretty horrifying. The Alabama ban scares me most because it seems likely to end with a Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v Wade and a federal law banning all abortion in the entire country.
Am I being paranoid in thinking that this is just the beginning of something bigger? What comes next? What other rights will women lose? How far will this go? Am I crazy to be freaked out?

Nope. This is the removal of a fundamental right for half the population.
Women need to make themselves heard over the whining of the fucking MEN who are the majority of those behind these measures.
Smart women, those who can afford to, should be moving themselves out of these states ASAP.
This is a giant fucking leap backwards.

There is such a thing as too late to flee. That is about what I am most worried.

Moving out of the state won’t be good enough if Roe v Wade is overturned

Which is why women have to start fighting now.

Murdering babies in the womb is sickening.

Go fuck yourself.
When you can get pregnant, you can firce yourself to have it. Until then, stay the fuck out of other peoples' reproductive rights.

It's all a scam considering that out of all the shit that's been going on and all the problems, like wars and pollution - the only thing politicians and Christians can focus on is the abortion.
And again, banning abortion doesn't work. Communist dictator Nicolae Ceauşescu forbade abortion and look how it worked for him and Romania.
But what can you do? People are completely braindead and clap Trump's speeches for fuck sake.

I really love this self righteousness.
Yet once the baby pops out it's "fuck you I got mine".
But if nothing happens that God does not want happening, then he is the biggest abortion provider worldwide when you consider stillborns and miscarriages outnumber abortions.
Oh, and if you support our ally Israel, please understand that they have very liberal abortion laws.
