Ninny:
Have you ever seen the look of abject horror on the face of a woman who has become the slave of the State? Stripped of her rights, made to give birth to a thing she does not want, forced as chattel to be scorned, humiliated, pitied by clucking know-it-alls and self-righteous, pious, dogmatic religious statists one step away from a new Inquisition? A chorus of screeching parrots that blindly churn forward like a mindless juggernaut, crushing the intent of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, full of sound and fury, yet signifying nothing?
Yes, look well upon face of screaming terror as that same woman, struggling to keep the vestiges of what little sanity she has left, fights against death as the unwanted life is ripped from her womb? Finally her struggles cease and she submits to the all-enveloping darkness of eternity, while over her blood-spattered body grim-faced zealots sprinkle holy water mixing generously with the life's blood which has hemorrhaged from her lifeless body and sagely drone it was "God's will".
You haven't? You may... for this is what being a slave and losing your rights to your own body means.
