(28,270 posts)As soon as the baby is born...if the parents are poor and especially PoC they hate them and will gladly let them starve to death or die from lack of health care.
Not to mention they are all probably close to 100% in favor of the death penalty too.
Pro-Life? No way.

Yeah pro-life

(9,350 posts)What else does he want them to be called? I can not think of anything else to call them. I imagine some on DU can respond to the previous sentence by saying, "I can". However, I do not know very many other names to call a group of people holding a demonstration.

(13 posts)If they are "Pro-Life" their leader and his handlers would not be killing off Millions of Americans by "Repealing The ACA" and having nothing to replace it after 6 years time.
My Questions Here Are:
"Why Do They Put Life First?" and "Why Are They Trying To Destroy The Lives Already Here?"
These Are Important Questions That All Americans And The World Need Answered First Since Putin's Puppet Has Claimed "America First".

Life means not sending soldiers into battle in a dishonest war.
Dems are all about LIFE.. they just give Women a choice over their own bodies. I've read there are fewer abortions under Dem Admins than there are under repug ones.

(65,616 posts)Not the good kind of buzz either...will this get worse as the days go on? In a month I will be piss slobbering drunk! So this is what falling into a Blackhole is like! I feel like everything is spinning out of control and very fast.

(36,926 posts)Is this REALLY where we are as a country now? It is surreal.

(3,734 posts)so depressing. When Trump met with British prime minister today, I couldn't believe how low the bar has been set for him. His vocabulary is so limited. His sentences are basically all the same and on the level of a second grader. (Apologies to some very bright second graders I have known, who easily would surpass Trump in language development.) Add his bigotry, mental instability, narcissism, dishonesty, corruption, traitorous Putin loving, power abuse,immaturity etc. to his STUPIDITY (and that horrible sniffing ugh) and it is like a nightmare from which I cannot awake. I don't recognize my country. This is even worse than I imagined.
But I am also really angry and ready to RESIST! Sorry to rant. I just really related to your post.

(36,926 posts)I also keep thinking how different it would all be if the winner of our popular vote had actually taken office!

(11,996 posts)"The politically ascendant anti-abortion movement gathered Friday for a triumphant rally on the National Mall, rejoicing at the end of an eight-year presidency that participants said was dismissive of their views
....
The March for Life is held every year in Washington to mark the anniversary of the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion. While no official crowd estimates were available, the turnout was clearly larger than in recent years, when abortion opponents had less political clout. Many thousands huddled in the shadow of the Washington Monument and stood in long lines outside security checkpoints made necessary by Pences appearance."

(12,540 posts)Well, they did it to "entitlement", which used to be a perfectly neutral word with a technical meaning.
