The Divided States Of America: The Overturning Of Roe Vs Wade

Today we watched on as the Supreme Court took down fifty years of precedent when they overturned Roe v. Wade. Today we watched as they told women and really any minority in this country was told today that they are less important than someone’s right to carry a weapon.

 

Yes, we knew after the leak that this was coming, however, the assault on Women’s fundamental rights seems to be so traumatic that there was no way to prepare for this. Now I will say that from the Supreme Court leak what we should take is that Abortion and women’s fundamental rights to their bodies is not the only assault that will come into play. We should take the Supreme Court leak very seriously. They are coming after all of our rights. So what we need to do now is mobilize. It’s time to show the people who are so eager to take away the rights that we have fought for so long to keep. We will stand up to this. We will keep voting and fighting until we have fair rights and protections.

 

These are issues that are going to affect real people. So those real people need to protest in the most American way. They need to continue to make their voices heard. However, that is going to start at the local levels. Make sure that the extremists know that we will not stand for this. That we will be at voting booths, we will be voting them out. There will be nothing that they can do about that. We will vote people in who are going to protect us no matter who their funding is coming from. That we will vote for people who know that lives matter more than guns!

 

Show the same group of people who keep talking about how we are going to take their right to bear arms away, that we will not let them take our rights as human beings away. The right to our own bodies won’t be taken away without a fight!

 

Yes, I’m angry. I’m angry because I love this country with my whole heart. However, I cannot sit here and pretend that we are the greatest county in the world. We have so much work to do. When a country puts the rights of a gun before the rights of any human being we have a problem. So let’s stop being a part of the problem. Let’s be a part of the solution. Let’s make this country the greatest. Let’s fix the things that need to be fixed. Starting with protecting women and their rights to their bodies.

 

Stay safe. Stay informed

Head to the voting booths

Make a change!

It’s My Body And My Choice

The truth about abortion is that, it’s my body and you have no right to tell me what to do with it. 

This is ‘Merica. The land of the brave and home of the free. When you tell a woman she can’t have an abortion you’re taking her freedom away. 

It’s murder because it’s a human life. But why is its life more important than hers? If she doesn’t want it why should she be forced to carry it? Why should her life change based on something that can’t even contribute to society for at least another 18 years.

The truth about abortion is that you should be able to voice your opinion, but know that it’s just that, your opinion. It should not be apart of anybody’s law. 

There are other options… Yes, single motherhood and adoption. Both of which are not choices everybody can face. Single motherhood is hard on the body and the mind, and not everybody is financially stable to provide for themselves let alone a child. Adoption is a life long depression. It’s a day burned into your memory, that you can never let go. The foster care system has thousands of children that need homes, I shouldn’t add another one.

Contraception. Well its hard to prevent something that is already happening. And who are you to force me into putting hormones in my body? That’s already an issue, you telling me what I should do with my body.

And my favorite reason, be celibate.  Being celibate is like you showing me all this chocolate cake and telling me I can’t have any, but I really like chocolate cake. And saying if you have unprotected sex and get pregnant that’s your fault is like saying you ate the chocolate cake, which is irresponsible, and now you have diabetes, and you’re on your own. It’s plain rude.

I can say this a thousand times, my body is none of your business, whether you’re my best friend, boyfriend, mother, father, cousin.

A child’s life is precious, I totally agree. But so is my life. So is the life of every woman that gets an abortion. If I’m not ready to let something that needs me for 40 weeks just to have it’s first breath without me, then let me do what I have to do. The world is overpopulated as it is.

The “abortion problem” will stop when everyone starts paying attention to their own body instead of telling other people what they should and shouldn’t do with their body.
