Republicans in Ohio want to undermine the will of voters who approved a measure enshrining reproductive freedom into the state’s constitution
Republicans went against their own rules and held a special election in August to stop abortion; they lost. Republicans then lost in November and abortion rights were enshrined in Ohio’s constitution. Now Republicans are saying no to democracy and laws.
Our problem here is all the Republicans. They’re anti-American. Ship them off to a place that fits them better.

deserted island in… hmm. lets go with the south china sea.
Fuck that, just send 'em to russia.
Putin’s propaganda machine would love that. They even have a nice little village all ready to go,

Here is uniform, Comrade, here is Z decal for your car, here is Chinese-made AK-47, here is map to Ukraine border, now go or you will be shot.
I hear Gaza is nice this time of year.
What? And give the Israelis more reason to bomb the place?
The Palestinians have enough problems to deal with already.
If all the conservatives consented to moving to the same new location uninhabitabed before yet the land provided all the basic needs, how would it work out?
They’d still find a way to divide and argue amongst themselves.
Get your god out of my government. Shitbags.
And off the money And out of the pledge And out of the schools
Could not agree more. These dumbasses just cannot grasp the rules in their little club are for them, not for me. Their rules don’t apply to me. Any extra-secular claims are completely invalid in our government.
If anyone’s curious exactly which rights are bestowed by God, I’ve compiled an exhaustive list:
Where’s the list?
Edit: Oh lol. I should go to sleep.
I hate how long it took me to get this.
and it’s still too long lol
“No amendment can overturn the God-given rights with which we were born,”
But then, that implies that you don’t have rights until you’re born…
Guess it’s time to take the guns away. Pack them up, second amendment doesn’t take my God given right to protect children.
Redefine birth = conception. Solved.
Does that fucking suck or is sucking fucking?
I was just about to quote this exact thing. That has to be the winner. The most idiotic anti abortion quote ever. Congratulations to that lady.
*baby
It’s my Constitution-given right to not give a fuck what anybody’s god says I should do.
Or shouldn’t.
I have just the gadsden flag for this
It should be socially acceptable to punch anyone in the face whenever they say stupid shit like this.
This is the uniquely American experience; if you do that, they will shoot you.
Are you sure it’s not? It’s illegal, sure, but I don’t think I personally know anyone who’s bothered by fascist punching.
From the party that brought us great hits such as: Don’t Tread on Me, and Small Government! comes their new hit singles: Tread on You and Threateningly Massive Government!
If God wants it so bad, why doesn’t he handle it his goddamn self?
I’ve learned a lot about God over the years and I think I can handle this one.
God… is busy with other things. Like making quarterbacks good at football.
He made my coffee nice and strong this morning, but he didn’t kill 4000 Gazan children in a week.
See it’s easy.
God hates my team so he can fuck off
Because mysterious ways and free will
I mean, whatever delusion you’ll buy that’s equivalent to any sense of anything after death, now cocks gun.
They definetly have the right to not have abortions themselves. But that’s probably where the line should be drawn.
If the Dems get their way they’ll be forced into abortions
/s
You joke, but they really do make the forced abortion claim.
You can say you’re being sarcastic but it can easily be seen they weren’t when saying the same gorramn shit.
Get God down here and let him tell us what rights he’s given. I’ll wait.
A God given right to enforce laws over the public at their own whims?
So… Like a Monarchy and court of the throne?
How deliciously un-american of the Ohio Republicans.
If they’d like to join into a monarchical society, why not rejoin the Ol’ British Empire as a Colony?
Shall we get the band back together on a mission from god?
All you have to do is kneel before the king.
So… Go on then… Kneel.
(/S if you couldn’t tell, fuck the Monarchy)
They might be disappointed with some of King Charles’ opinions, especially when it comes to the environment. But, you know, God given right and all that!
Even the British Empire, at its height, was a Constitutional Monarchy and there were things the King simply could not do.
Republicans are more of a “L’ etat, c’est moi” kind of governance.
It’s ironic because the word “republican” was invented to describe anti-monarchists.
That’s pretty much the only connotation the rest of the world thinks about that word. Until political news from Washington happens because of US-defaultism.
Your god didn’t give you the right to make laws, the people who overwhelmingly voted to legalize abortion did
As a non- American, I straight up don’t understand how political representatives are not required to action the collective will of the people who elected them. It should be against the law, or subject to legal penalty in some way. .

As an American, You are 100% right. Unfortunately these endless fuckholes think otherwise.
They’re strongly disincentivized to enact policy that allows anyone to hold them accountable.
It’s my god given right to do whatever the fuck I want and force you to do the same!
It’s my god given right to do whatever the fuck I want and force you to do
the samewhat I say!Ftfy. They do not follow the same rules they try to impose.
You’re not giving me a good reason now to raise my children to believe in your god.
