1. Wish I had more than one

rec to give for this.

[erronis]

19. There, I just added another for you.

Now, if I could figure out to add another for me....

[calimary]

33. And here's another one!

Plus some suggested practical steps if you feel like doing something about one of the biggest wrongs dealt to our freedoms:

24. I feel the same. I'd give at least 6 months' worth of recs.

2. Congress will pass a bill. Once done, it will return to roe.

[momta]

4. Wish I had your confidence.

I don't believe it will happen until Manchin is rendered irrelevant.

[momta]

3. And while we're at it...

Let's abolish or drastically reform the senate so that states with half a million people don't have the same representation as states with 40 million people. Also, fucking FIX gerrymandering. Voters should pick their reps; reps shouldn't pick their voters.

[MyOwnPeace]

7. AMEN, AMEN, AMEN!!!!!!!!

Oh WAIT, that sounds too 'religious' and I don't want to seem like I'm encouraging THAT!

How about 'Frickin - A!'

[Wounded Bear]

8. You do realize, don't you...

That "Fucking A" is short for "Fucking A - men"

[MyOwnPeace]

9. I'll settle for that......

maybe keep BOTH sides happy - or pizzed!

[rubbersole]

17. Why doesn't anyone say "I have no more fricks to give" ?

[MyOwnPeace]

18. HA!!!!! Good point.......

I'll admit I'm an 'old-fart' - I still have a 'problem' with using some language in different settings. I was in 'education' for 40 years and you have to 'watch your language' when meeting with school boards, staff members, parents, and, of course, students.
I also spent 45 years as a church musician - well, I don't have to tell you about THAT, do I?

BUT, I also worked (through public school age and college) at a bakery. There's NO loading dock in America that could beat a baker's &*%^*&*!^@ language!

I also tended bar for a few years after I retired. Just like newspapers and magazines, and even TV shows, the 'allowance' of 'true expression' has changed over the years. I was always amazed at how freely the "F-bomb" was dropped in simple, casual conversation, especially in mixed company.

Yes, times have changed, but, depending on my level of anger regarding any post that I make - I DO tend to 'tone it down' - but trust me, I am probably STILL THINKING IT!!!!

[Whatthe_Firetruck]

25. I've no more f*cks...

...to give.

[MyOwnPeace]

26. Absolutely FANTASTIC!!!!!

Can't believe I have not seen it before

[soldierant]

31. Fortunately for me, I have seen it before

since I see the snowflakes have come down hard on it. Wi=onder if it might be on Vimeo.

[erronis]

20. I'd actually sit in a pew where I could shout "frickin A". Wave my arms, stomp, rattle and roll.

Just, please - leave the blessed's, gods, lords, heaven, and sin out of the ceremonies.

[markie]

5. excellent k&r n/t

6. Half the adults in the US can't read at an eighth grade level.

[BlueIdaho]

30. Let's not forget ID, MT, WY, NV, and UT.
