    Many women can't travel interstate for a variety of reasons.

    You need to explain it properly. Abortion is healthcare than will likely be needed everywhere. You should not have to travel from state to state to get it. This is not some rare form of cancer treatment that might only effect a couple of people.

    Fucking no, they should not be heard! That’s the whole goddamn point of a constitutional right, whether explicitly enumerated or not! To stop them from being heard at the ballot box! Should pro-segregation conservative voices be heard? No! Should anti-gay marriage conservatives be heard? No! Should anti-sodomy conservatives be heard? No! Should pro-slavery conservatives be heard? No! Should pro-censorship conservatives and progressives be heard? No!


    How is this so hard for you to understand?

    I should have in my earlier post not just said "women." The case of the 10-year-old girl who was raped in Ohio and had to travel to Indiana should show to any reasonable person how awful it is that for abortion to be illegal in one state and to force someone to have to travel across state lines to procure one.

    And on top of that, the reaction from some on the right further shows how monstrous the anti-abortion position can be.

    I can get the notion of disbelieving it initially. 10 is pretty young conventionally to get pregnant, and it seems almost too perfect an illustration of how mean-spirited and shortsighted across-the-board ban can be.

    But when it was proven real, instead of thinking "Hey maybe we should put some exceptions in this law for these difficult cases," some anti-abortion people took the position, "That 10-year-old should have been forced to carry that rapist's baby to term and raise it for a daily reminder of her rape." Others called for the prosecution of the Indiana doctor who performed the abortion. Still others tried to pivot because the person accused of her rape is an undocumented alien to try to lay the situation at the feet of Democrats.

    Tipped your hand a little early there, FF. Or shot your wad the minute you got your cock fondled.

    Either way, your hand was involved.

    One person one vote is about choosing representation, not stripping constitutional rights.

    He's trolling. I'm only engaging with him at this point because his occasional meltdowns here have shown that he isn't as good a troll as he thinks and is vulnerable to insults. He might fuck off or melt down again, either of which is a positive. Or I give others a laugh, so job done either way.

    If he thought for a second that one person, one vote could strip him of the 2nd Amendment, he'd be singing the exact opposite tune.

    In soprano.

    So, what happens when a religious maniac chops off a pregnant woman's head with a sword, and her carcass lands belly down, and kills the kid too?
    Death sentence, or medal ceremony?

    How the GOP describes something which the majority of Americans dispute.

    They would say the same thing about Trump's 2020 "victory."

    Medal ceremony because they don’t actually care about the fetus either.

    AOC wasn't "pretending" to be handcuffed, or if so, she did a spectacularly poor job of it when she raised her right fist as shown in the video you've linked.

    I always like to skim the channels rather than watch the video.
    If I see Pepes, and 4Chan troll faces, and phrases like "copium" it's probably Nazi garbage.

    Where in that video does she pretend to be handcuffed? Is it when she shows that her hands aren't restrained by putting her fist in the air?

    Ah yes here we go with the gaslighting that's done here on a daily basis. I can see with my own two eyes that she's clearly pretending to be handcuffed, but because she thinks she's some kind of folk hero, she can't help herself and slips up and puts her hands in the air. Worst of all the cop goes along with it. I'm sure Jussie Smollet and Cassidy Hutchenson will come along shorty to coraborate her story that they heard through the grapevine from her sister's cousin's best friend's brother's daughter who heard from her brother's nephew's mother's aunt who saw the whole thing. Like I said the other day, you guys never, ever admit when you're wrong.
