This month in the US, people were shot for ringing the wrong doorbell, getting into the wrong car, using a leaf blower, delivering food to the wrong address, driving into the wrong driveway, and for asking a neighbor to stop shooting so a baby could sleep.
It’s the fucking guns.
Republicans are accusing the trans community of ‘waging a war’ on women.
Meanwhile:
In the state of Idaho - the Governor signed a bill into law which prevents young women from exercising their constitutional right to travel to get the legal abortion care they need.
In the state of Florida - if a victim of incest or rape is impregnated by her attacker, she has to provide documentation to “prove” her assault in order to become “eligible” for an abortion.
In Texas, women are being forced to risk their own lives before being allowed to have an abortion. In many cases, waiting until they are SEPTIC before a doctor will help them.
In the state of Alabama, a woman who is raped and impregnated by her assailant cannot legally seek an abortion at all, and any doctor who helps her to get one, can be punished with a life sentence in jail.
So yes, there is indeed a war on women.
And Republicans are the ones waging it.
