endangered..... there were fewer and fewer of them every year, so we decided to protect them and their eggs before there weren't any.

Now, lets consider people... How many of them are there on Earth? Are they endangered of becom...... Oh. I forgot..... White people are becoming endangered.... heard 'bout it just the other day from some Oaf Keeper.



My apologies.

Becomes easy to compare them to anything and everything but a person after that.

Same with black and brown people and LGBT people. Same with First Peoples. Same with everyone they consider inferior to them.

None of us are dealing with people open to dialogue with other people.

They don't see us a people.

They have made that quite clear.

We need to fight back accordingly.

so they must be at least 3 months old (and I'm not an expert on child development) and look closer to 6 months or older. I've noticed that the anti-choice people tend to use older children in their propaganda, not pictures of actual zygotes at

Babies typically can sit with support around 6 months, and sit unassisted by 9 months. Some earlier and some later, of course, but you are right that those babies are not 3 months old.

I wish Republicans were near extinction.

Why Senator Dumbass, I thought you knew. It's because there are so few sea turtles left in the world thans to your developer friends fucking up their spawning grounds and your rich friends demanding turtle eggs and turtle soup on the menu every week.

Meanwhile, the earth is groaning under the weight 7.9 billion human beings (yeah, looked it up, asshole) and I honestly don't think the loss of a few million messes men made is going to make any of us endangered, do you Senator Dipshit?

Now if women were oviparous, we'd just go lay our eggs in the sand traps at your favorite golf courses and they'd be your problem, not ours. Unfortunately, you want us to surrender our bodies and risk our health, our lives, our social support, our finances, and our mental health going through a pregnancy AGAINST OUR WILL.

Sorry, Senator BowBeforeMyWeenie, but that's not going to work. We won't let you do that. And neither will men out there who have better consciences than you do.

Asshole.
