RW & Fundamentalists Still Behind Videos & Still Demand Shutting Down PP.

The indictments of the video makers make no difference to the GOP. They are still fully behind these false videos. They will still end PP given the chance. The RW and fundy churches still will not tolerate PP existence. So we can plan on continued hearings and continued defunding of PP.

We all must understand they will never give up and will use any means even violence and intimidation to stop PP from delivering services. Such tactics are the most threat in more rural communities where women's health services are more limited and where hospitals are run by conservative religious entities. Even in Denver, Colorado Catholic and Christian entities own and run major hospitals.

The GOP is succeeding in eroding women's reproductive health care. And many red states continue to pass laws and many are getting even more aggressive and restrictive. In some parts of the US now Roe V Wade is only just a piece of paper now. There is no reproductive health services.

A couple of things I keep hearing from RW acquaintances and while checking on RW sites

- The video makers offer to buy baby parts and are being punished
- PP offered to sell baby parts but isn't being punished
- The prosecutor is on the board of directors of PP
- God will punish us for this

At least you can have a little fun with these crazies. A conservative once ranted about abortion, then asked me what I thought about it. I asked him if he thought that Democrats were much more likely to have abortions than Republicans. He said yes. I asked him if he thought fewer Democrats would be a good thing. He agreed enthusiastically. I asked him if Democrats are more likely to have abortions and therefore, apparently, abortion will lead to fewer Democrats, if he shouldn't be in favor of abortion?

I think he had an aneurysm while trying to divide by zero.
