I’ve talked about this before but I’m going to repeat myself. Women are blamed for every damn thing that is upsetting men, what?

It sickens me and causes my PTSD to be triggered. My daughter, she was 25, was murdered 8 1/2 years ago in an act of Domestic Violence.

When I see the religious right wing creeps making decisions for all women I am beyond angry and go into remembering how I found her body and I get physically ill.

This cannot become normal anymore.

I fought for years for women’s rights in many different ways. This angers me as well but it saddens me, too.

And this pain I feel will never go away.

This kind of thinking by these theocratic people is going to cause more harm to come to women.

It must stop. We have the strength in numbers and would be able to put up quite a fight to keep those misogynists out of our way,

Enough. I’m gonna go be emotionally drained. You get me.

This is all becoming the way of the world now. Enough…

My God...the pain you must feel...I am so sorry-and that is not nearly enough to say. I volunteered for a Domestic Violence shelter back in the midwest for 14 years. My mother was a victim. I, too, am saddened by these abhorrent actions...and all we can do is advocate and VOTE. My sincere hope is that women across America will be angry enough to get every single one of these fascists OUT of office. Hugs to you from Philly. ✌️

Thank you Susan very much! I can understand where you’re coming from, my daughter was amazing, I miss her so much it makes me so sad. Past month has been bad for me but that’s what happens. Thank you.

Yes, you are correct when you say we outnumber them. We The People are being pushed to the brink. I am taking today to get my thoughts together but we must do something. Make "good trouble".
