the US Supreme Court set to overturn Roe v Wade

It was bound to come down to this.

I really don't get this pro life thing. For a start, all men should just butt out.

i'm just interested in how they plan to deal with males creating unwanted pregnancy - i mean they are dictating to women how they have to deal with their bodies so surely they have a plan in place....

i have an idea, for every woman who is denied an abortion, cut the testicles off another man, not necessarily the man responsible, just whoever is nearest, or maybe start with the supreme court males, not that they use their gonads anymore

I wonder if they'll find out who leaked the draft and what their motivation was?? that they don't agree with it??

this doesn't help, it's not fairly balanced....... "The court, which has a 6-3 conservative majority"

It had to be some extreme right-wing extremist...

It should never be a political decision imo

Maybe I ought to wear a gorilla mask to hide my sexiness.

"And then we have the accused (and alleged) abuser Matt Gaetz using his inside voice outside again.



"How many of the women rallying against overturning Roe are over-educated, under-loved millennials who sadly return from protests to a lonely microwave dinner with their cats, and no bumble matches?” Gaetz wrote on Twitter Wednesday morning.



Because only sad, lonely single women who don't have children and a man at home to take care of, cares about bodily autonomy."

just read this elsewhere........"If men got pregnant they'd be offering abortions at Bunnings"
someone else said...."with a free sausage sizzle"

I saw that Maggie, but I didn't see the comment after it

It's kind of true though, isn't it.

A viral sign from America.

Must share....from another board....


"Seven short years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, put forth the Make America Great Again Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of judgmental assholes who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their persecution.



But 100 months later, the Conservative still is not free. One hundred months later, the life of the Conservative is still sadly crippled by the manacles of progressivism and the chains of Social Justice. One hundred months later, the Conservative lives on a lonely island of ridicule in the midst of a vast ocean of woke perspicacity. One hundred years later the Conservative is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself in exile in his own land. And so we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition. In a sense we've come to our nation's capital to cash a check.



When the architects of the insurrection misquoted the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Malevolence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men — yes, Conservative men as well as idiot politicians — would be guaranteed the unalienable control over the rights of women to life, liberty and the pursuit of autonomy in health care.



It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of Trumpism are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given Conservative people a bad check, a check which has come back marked insufficient funds.



But they refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt.



They refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity to control others of this nation. And so they've come to cash this check, a check that will give them upon demand the riches of being able to curb the freedom and the security those they deem to be baby killers, and bring them to justice.



Now is the time to make real the promises of MAGA. Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of subjugation to the sunlit path of patriarchal justice. Now is the time to lift our nation from the quick sands of wokism to the solid rock of nationalist brotherhood. Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children, and throw their promiscuous moms and permissive doctors in jail.



It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment. This sweltering summer of the Conservative’s legitimate discontent will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of oversight and control. 2022 is not an end, but a beginning. Those who hope that the Conservative needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to business as usual.



There will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Conservative is granted his control over women’s rights. The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of punitive justice emerges.



The Conservatives have been the veterans of creative suffering. Continue to work within the Conservative Christianist faith that unearned suffering is redemptive. Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to South Carolina, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our Wicked Democrat run cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed.



Let us not wallow in the valley of despair, I say to you today, my friends.



So even though Conservatives face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, They still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American Patriarchal dream. They have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created to have dominion over women and their unborn tissue with a soul.



They have a dream that one day the red states of this nation, the sons of former slave owners and the sons of bitches will be able to sit down together at the table of patriarchal brotherhood, whereupon even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression will be transformed into an oasis of zero prenatal care facilities.



They have a dream that one day down in Florida with its righteous anti-maskers with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, one day right down in Florida little pregnant girls will be able to be forced to bear the children of little boys whether they consented or not. They have a dream today.



They have a dream that one day every fetus shall be exalted, every cell and lump shall be made viable, the punitive measures will be made plain, and the awkward weirdos will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.



And if America is to be a great nation, this must become true. And so let righteousness ring from the prodigious hilltops of bully pulpits. Let righteousness ring from the mighty microphones of Conservative Talk Radio, Let righteousness ring from the caterwauling voices Conservative politicians. Let righteousness ring from the goldplated toilets of Mara Lago. Let righteousness ring from the curvaceous slopes of the sainted tight-lipped Melania. But not only that, let righteousness ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia. Let righteousness ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee. Let righteousness ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi. From every mountainside, let righteousness ring.



And when this happens, and when we allow righteousness to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, and the jezebels that spawn them, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Trump Rally Chant: Lock her up. Lock her up. Thank God almighty, if she terminates her pregnancy, lock that b**** up."
