1. Why do people who find calling someone a Muslim a slur do their damnedest to be more and more

3. BOOO!

MY BODY, MY CHOICE.

POLITICIANS AND SO CALLED CHRISTIANS NEED TO GET THE HELL OUT OF MY UTERUS.

I've never had to make such a difficult decision, and I'm not sure I could ever do it if faced with that reality, but I damned sure know that it is MY body and MY life and my right to.choose. God only knows what could happen where you would need to terminate a pregnancy, and man has no business judging and preventing a woman from having the access to legal and safe healthcare if she has to do this.

They care about the fetus but could care less about the human being.

This just makes me sick. We had better get these idiots out of office so that we can get back to evolving.

4. Seems like

Republicans have found the ONE thing in the world that they WANT to regulate the s**t out of. It's literally now getting to the point where it's easier to get a gun than an abortion in this county.

6. Some knucklehead, who claims he is a Dem, was lauding these same bozos.

Not. Very. Bright.
