Those 'pass it on' emails. They keep you informed on what.... on what? I'm not sure. I got one in my email this morning from a close friend. She's a Democrat, but I try not to hold that against her. We rarely discuss politics because the urge to slap.... um....it's better to stay friends with them than point out how stupid they can be.
There's an old joke that's not very funny when you think about it. I'm using the "he" pronoun for readability. Get over it, girls.
A Democrat sees something on television he doesn't like. He calls on the government to pass a law to ban it because, in his opinion, the American people shouldn't see it, hear it, know it, and it's up to the government to tell the people what's best for them.
A Republican sees something on television he doesn't like. He changes the channel.
The point, in case you didn't get it, is about personal choice.
Roe vs. Wade turns 39 today.
It doesn't matter what you think is right or wrong in someone else's life, only your own.
Try to use your head and think about that for yourself. Don't base your opinions on religious or political rhetoric. Reach down into your gut and imagine the loss of personal choice in the kind of coffee you drink or the kind of car you drive. Imagine your neighbor having the right to dictate to you the color of the flowers you can plant in your garden.
Think.
