Why Are Republicans Anti-Choice? [View all]

Last edited Sat May 11, 2019, 08:38 PM - Edit history (1)

Maybe it’s because less children in the world means fewer school shooting targets for the gun nuts, fewer kids to shame when their parents can’t afford school lunches, and fewer kids to rip away from parents at the border in order to scare immigrants into staying away.

If that statement seems mean, insulting, and demeaning, that’s okay – it’s meant to.
