Such restrictions are constitutionally illegal

Voting restrictions are constitutionally illegal.

The point is the illegality has NOT stopped many red states from trying many various ways to restrict civil rights.

Please understand that there’s nothing you can do to placate these people. They have a plan, and that plan is to control who has sex, when they have sex and how they have sex. They won’t stop with banning abortion or banning gay marriage. They will go after divorce, they will go after sex toys, they will go after

Neither this nor the Taliban have all that much to do with religion. It’s about power over others (women are just low hanging fruit). Religion is just the cheap Halloween costume that’s being used to distract everyone from this fact.

That uncle who is always complaining about Iran (often completely unprompted) just wants to live in a place where he can throw acid in women’s faces.

Irish person here: 1983, we introduced a constitutional ban on abortion. Badly, flawed wording, so in 1992, we had to confirm the right to travel and right to information. A stronger ban was attempted in 2002, but narrowly failed. Finally in 2018, we managed to repeal the 1983 amendment. By a 2:1 ratio. In an

Fuck you, leave.

It fun when the desire for small government requires more government. 

You’re missing Gore-suck and Allmust Carry Babies. 

Strange that all these conservatives complain about Muslims and how they treat women, are the same ones who want to treat women the same here.

We didn’t put a travel ban in place for COVID. Why the change of politics now?

What would a travel ban even look like?”

I’ll just say it. I hope Alito, Thomas, and for good measure, Kavanaugh just die soon and human beings are appointed to the seats they left vacant.

Oh like abortion Gestapo?

I think they’d go the other way. They’d have spotters sitting in/near abortion center parking lots, penciling down license plates and passing them to LEOs. The minute those cars return to the banned state, they’d be arrested.

The American dream is to be able to leave America nowadays.
