if the judge bans the abortion pill [View all]

the government should ignore it. announce that the government will be shipping the pills to individuals in states with abortion bans. its time to take the country back from the far right. the so called law be damned when its a matter of life and death.
whats the judge going to do?

The far right has declared war on america. its time we realize that and start acting like it.
