And once they've banned that they will move on to birth control. I don't know how any sane woman could vote for a republican.

I know a Libertarian conspiracy theory person who is constantly posting excrement on FB -- he actually posted a picture of two piles of excrement with a caption that implied that both parties are equally terrible.

I'll use this list for future posts. I'm not going to change his mind, but I'm sure he has friends who are undecided, and I'd like to remind THEM of the ultimate stakes of this election
