I just can't believe my eyes and ears anymore. It is like insanity overload and I just want to turn it off.
Where is the outrage of the women that would have to deal with an unplanned pregnancy or a pregnancy as a result of rape? Are they truly that apathetic?
Oh god for the marches and political activism today, of the 60's and 70's! I just do not get all of this.
Do I still live in America?
Maybe I am dreaming.
Can someone wake me up please, because it is actually a nightmare.

There is outrage. There are protests, and marches, and grassroots activism...all of which is being virtually IGNORED by the media outlets! That is the part of all this that I don't understand, that is the part that perplexes and confuses me probably about as much as it does you. I can understand Fox "News" ignoring the efforts of women to counteract this insanity...but every other major network?? There was a march in Washington, DC on August 18. Did you hear about it? I'm guessing that you probably didn't...and I'm not saying that to sound snarky. I'm just amazed that there is basically a media blackout regarding the women protesting against this insanity.
