24. If they choose to defy what is going on, then I'll be wrong
Wed Jun 8, 2022, 11:44 AM

If the police collectively rise up and declare "The SCOTUS, this right-wing bent in the courts, and these states have said what the law is, but we're going to say what is right" on female autonomy; then I will be wrong about this.

And it's not just that "I'll be wrong"; I want to be wrong, I hope I am wrong, and I pray I am wrong.

And please bookmark this, so then if I am wrong, you can hang this over my head for as long as you desire, and you can reply with "Hey, look at what ck4829 typed that one time, he was really wrong about this!" to anything I type and my reply will always be "Yep, and I am glad I was!"
