SCOTUS. This image just nails it.

15. Last time I saw my father back in 2004

he told me that the only reason I exist is because back in the early 50s my mother used one of those on herself to end her first pregnancy. Apparently it scared her so badly that when she got pregnant again she was afraid to do it again. That decision allowed me to arrive on earth. To say I was not wanted, loved or nurtured would be a series of understatements.

But my mother was a person who cared a great deal about appearances so I was fed, clothed, and taken care of properly. My parents had the resources so I never suffered physical neglect.

I wouldn't wish my childhood on anyone and I was one of the lucky ones. I can only imagine being born into a situation where the mother didn't care about appearances, didn't have the resources to care for an unwanted child.

I got lucky, almost did myself in during my late teens and early 20s, met some wonderful people, an amazing woman, had a daughter and pulled my head out of my *ss so I could be a better father to her than my mother had been a parent to me.

Women NEED to have the right to decide what to do with their bodies. This loaded SCOTUS won't end abortion, they will simply drive more women into situations like my mother found herself in and more children will suffer as badly and much more than I did.

Well done Republicans.
