By Alito's "logic", only wealthy white men have inviolate rights. This shows how thin the veneer of "country that is looked at as a world leader" really is. The rest of the world has looked at us with a WTF? look for quite a while; now they'll be turning their backs.
I’m an over educated 70 year old, with (yes) cats, a husband, 3 kids, 1 grand babe & 1 on the way.
I am overflowing with white, hot, pulsating, volcanic rage. I already fought this fight, working for Planned Parenthood in the 1970’s. I counseled pregnant teens, & little girls who’d been raped by their uncles & daddy’s, & yes, married women who didn’t need anyone else telling them what to do with their uterus & their life.
I am livid that a small minority of white, entitled assholes are hell bent on taking us back to the 50’s. I remember coat hangers, & back alley abortion, & women dying in a pool of their own blood.
I will die on this hill.
I too, was told I was “over reacting,” that Roe was “settled law.” & yet here we are. Next they’re coming for birth control, & gay marriage, & trans kids & adults, & interracial marriage, & on & on until only white, rich, cis male “Christian’s” have rights.
Thank you once again for your insights. We are not the over reacting, crazy ones here.
Donna, I can't thank you enough for the lifetime of fearless advocacy you've embodied. You paved the way for the rest of us, and I appreciate it. I'm so sorry you're having to see this bullshit after decades of fighting. But know this: I'm proud to stand beside you, friend.
Thank you for eloquently saying what I am thinking. Oh, and I tried to order a t-shirt, but the payment part of the transaction would not go through, even though I was using a valid Amex card. Maybe because I live in Canada?

And Gaetz can kiss my over-educated ass.
Damn right, Susan. It's ludicrous.

Thank you, my friend.
& thank you for everything you do; boldly & honestly living & sharing your life. I’ve learned so much from you.
(Not to mention your much needed & sassy sense of humor during these shitshow times).
Sent the link to 50 friends. Will order mine next. And I'm so angry I have to up my donations to NARAL instead of the WWF. Phuck Alito and Gaetz
Robin, you're the best! I appreciate you. And I absolutely *love* NARAL. Great org.
Anger stoked. Tshirts purchased. Thank you Charlotte.
Rachel, you rock! Thank you so much, friend.

Hey Kimmy! Yeah, that's probably it. What a bummer. If you want, shoot me an email (cmclymer@gmail), and we can coordinate getting you a shirt.
