    Kinda testy there (and prior), no?

    i believe his intentions up there were spot on, and I completely get what Chappell meant.

    Men may sympathize, support, all of that — and as a woman appreciate it — but they simply can’t KNOW what it’s like to have a fucking circus court playing havoc with our bodies. 

    Did you really have to?  Going back to ignoring you.
    Good Bye.
    ?

    This has become comical. 

    But yes yes…adios, Mr. Crankypants.

     Added to the fact you also can’t get baby formula (that part isn’t funny)

    Hey Chappelle, a woman named Hilary lost the white woman vote to a man who was regularly accused of harassing women, and made it no secret he would do everything he could to put in place a court that will take away your rights. That man appointed three Justices to give us this court and these opinions which will last for likely 20 years. So, sisters, if you have a ****, maybe you should shut the eff up on this one.

    so yeah Dave, white women had a big say in this.

    I am embarrassed to be an American man and a lawyer. Again. WTF is wrong with this country?
    It’s not you, you didn’t do this and obviously you’re as upset as everyone posting.  It’s not a man or lawyer thing so don’t be embarrassed.  These are people who are turning back the clock to stifle men and women who’ve progressed past racism, white supremacy, etc. 

    I appreciate your comment but please know women won’t blame ALL men for this especially if it’s clear you support a woman’s right to choose.  

    Thank you.  I am still embarrassed that a group of people, who are supposed to be amongst the top legal minds in our country, could not find legal reasoning to support this important woman's right.

    I'm one of the people who voted 3rd party over Hillary.  You can throw rocks at me.
    (But only if I can call someone testy without several people trying to shame me.  Fuck off, if that is the case.  :lol:  )


    Nothing funny about the rulings the past few days.  I'm even further embarrassed by the so called leadership groups of our country.  

    "In God we trust."

    What a fucking joke.

    So sorry for all women and worried for those without the means to travel to places where they will be able to get proper Healthcare.
    She was right about every fucking thing she tried to warn us about! I’m glad I voted with her not against her. Have a great fucking weekend

    It’s fitting that this massive step back comes out of Mississippi.  The state consistently at the bottom of virtually every category.  The symbolism is undeniable 

    Today we are all Mississippians.

    I get the anger and if I had any belief that Trump would have been able to win I would have voted for her.  I'm one of the people who thought he had no chance.  I was right in my state, my vote didn't actually have any impact as Hillary won here, but if I could do it over I'd vote for Hillary, even though I don't like her.
    I sure as heck voted for Joe, and I don't really like him.

    I give you much credit for admitting your vote at this time. One thing I never get from those in the middle is voting who they “like.” The US president is in many cases a popularity contest, which makes no sense. In American politics, leaders are chained by their parties. It’s been this way for generations.

    Voters who want unlimited guns and taking away womens rights, should vote against the Dems. In every other case, people should be voting democrats in every election every year.

    I have been free with my choice to vote for that dope Gary Johnson over Hillary or Trump.
    I didn't recognize the republican party any longer and sure as hell wasn't ever going to vote for that goon Trump.  I thought his thuggery and assault accusations, combined with all of his questionable business dealings and being an overall asshole would be enough for people to avoid him.
    Misjudged that one. 
    Again, it made no difference in my state.

    It wasn't just popularity, for me, it was also platform.  I could not get behind many of the major talking points of either group.

    Once Trump won I changed my mind and decided it was no longer about policies, but basic humanity.  I would need to vote against my wallet, and many of my beliefs, every election....picking Blue even as I was cringing at many party stances.

    There is no place for me and my beliefs....but I do feel now that I need to just pick the side which isn't hateful and run by the asshole religious people

    I’ve always thought that dynamic is interesting. 
    Republican (or right leaning) voters to me seemed to shape their beliefs around the candidate (Trump).  As he isn’t now and never was a Republican.  Republicans did abandon a lot of their policy positions they had for decades specifically  for Trump.

    I’ve always viewed the Democrats as the opposite. Those who couldn’t get on board with Hillary voted for someone else 

    the protest vote seems much more likely from the left than the right. Privately a lot of Republicans  I know hate Trump. They still voted for him

    Went to an abortion rights rally in Washington Square Park yesterday evening. I was happy to see the turnout. There were some great signs. One that struck me said the Supreme Court voted for gun care and health control. So true.

    I was just thinking yesterday about how I would do the same thing if I could do it over again.  I voted for neither Hillary nor 45, knowing Hillary would easily get California's electoral college (and of course, she did). 
    But the thing is, it's still baffling that so many Dems thought Hillary had it in the bag so they didn't turn out to vote at all.  How could that have happened?  And now we are stuck in a version of history many of us don't want.  More than don't want.
