by the way how can this guy not be banned yet?

For what? Because I just posted the current affairs in America? It wasn't even an argument, just the news.

Banning those who speak opposing point of view? Spoken like a true Liberal/democrat/antifa/fascist/socialist.

You're such a cliché, it's not even funny. Discriminating minorities is not opposing views, but that's something people like you will never understand. Nobody likes you here, so maybe just fuck off to Truth social?

There’s lots of reasons Florida has shifted towards Republicans lately, but man alive Andrew Gillum has to be one of the biggest causes of Democrats implosions in the Sunshine State.  This guy was a ticking time bomb and maybe it’s best for him, Democrats, and the state of Florida, that he didn’t win in 2018 (though, giving Red Dead Desantis a national platform is likely going to fuck the entire country eventually).

As a pretty staunch progressive myself, the only thing that angers me more than republicans is democrats like this. Holy shit, dude. Who does this help?! Ugh.

It’s pretty brutal.

Nothing about this guy seems suitable for public office.

But funny how everyone agrees that guys like Gillum and Cuomo are done politically but if they were Republicans they’d be fine.  Democrats (for the most part, though there are rare exceptions) discard their trashed candidates; Republicans take their trash and nominate them to rep the party.

I sometimes wish the dems could be as cold and calculating as their counterparts. The Dems have real principles. You fuck up? We make you resign and want nothing to do with you. I will never understand how Donald Trump, Jim Jordan, and Matt Gaetz became the faces of the party that claims to represent conservative christian family values....

(That's not true. I understand exactly how it happened. But that doesn't make it make more sense.)

Well, we’ll see how this affects the mid terms. Maybe inflation remains the top issue for voters come November, but I don’t see this helpiny Republicans in the long term.  The majority of Americans believe access to abortion is a fundamental right, but I suspect many who pay little attention to American jurisprudence were aware of how fragile that right is. Now they’ll know and might decide to act and vote accordingly.

Since we are at it, let me know when they plan to ban gay and interracial marriage  :angry:

:fuckyou:

Clarence Thomas’ concurring opinion today already suggests that they should, and Alito’s first draft of his majority opinion suggested he would. This isn’t hyperbole. It’s their plan. They do not care how many people die, whether by the death penalty, gun violence, or botched abortions. In the last week, they’ve expanded the death penalty, expanded gun rights, and taken away the right to a safe abortion. Good thing we have pro-life family values judges on our court, eh?

Roe V Wade has been overturned!  Thank God!

To quote President Donald J. Trump: "God has made this decision"

The right to an abortion is no longer a constitutional right. Nor should it ever have been. Millions of voices that were silenced can now have a voice.

This is only the beginning. God will turn this nation around. It's not over. Thank you God!

Or maybe there is a god and it just hates women?

If that it the case, then God is an fuckin idiot. He created a woman according to the fuckin lame ass Bible. It's all his fault :rofl-lol:

Now, this year in November there is midterm election. There could be plenty ballot initiatives about legal abortion. The people can vote yes or no. If Yes wins then abortion is legal. Marihuana and other drugs became legal that way. Already some States were prepared for something like to take place. Many laws protecting abortion has been passed before yesterday's ruling

lol

This shows how America is moving backwards instead of forward in thinking.

I unfortunately live in Texas and they wanted this for a long time. If they could take away all our rights this state would. they had a meeting last week and one thing mentioned was succeeding from the US. Texas throughout their history has at one time or another wanted to be a separate country. If this happens I will definitly get the fuck out of here.  

I don't  like the idea of abortion as a birth control, but in some cases it is needed. Texas doesn't care if you are raped or a victim of incest they want you to have this baby. My God! what a crock. No sex education is taught by parents or schools, so it seems some people still don't use any birth control. in this day and age there is no reason for a woman to get pregnant if she doesnt want to unless she is raped.  the won the abortion battle, but nothing has changed in education women and men on how not to have babies.

I feel horrible for all the innocent babies that will be born and possibly not be cared for. 

I don't know how this has happened. What's next? No more gay marriage nor more birth control?  If there is a God, he has fucked us all.
