Five uncaring, ruthless, heartless, cruel, evil people…
Amy Coney Barrett
Samuel A. Alito, Jr.
Brett Kavanaugh
Neil M. Gorsuch
Clarence Thomas
With the Supreme Court of the United States overturning of Roe versus Wade in 2022, these five people have ruined - and will continue to ruin - the lives of countless people. With the misguided power given to them, they have undone almost 50 years of civil rights in an incredibly heinous and evil fashion, stripping away the basic right of anyone with a womb to decide whether or not they would consent to the life-changing act (and for some, trauma) of giving birth to another.
They’ve made this decision with no regard, concern or care to not only the ongoing life of that person they’d force a pregnancy upon, but also to the life of that child they supposed hold in such high esteem. We know this because they aren’t concerned with anything of benefit to that child’s life from the moment they’ve left that “sacred” womb.
They care not for victims or rape or incest, regardless of those victims including children they claim to champion for.
They care not for social or economic reform to make the lives of those children better.
They care not for children gunned down in schools.
They care not for those who would die during a pregnancy.
They care not for choice.
What they DO care for, is their religious faith. Something that holds no place within a system such as the Supreme Court of the United States.
Forcing anyone to give birth treats that person as an object, as livestock. It’s cruel, heartless and evil. It’s also insulting when it comes at the direction of those who trade in despair and division for a profit, which is what fundamentalist religion does, and use their supposed morals as a means of denying equity to all.
There’s so much that can be said of those who sought to overturn Roe versus Wade, and those who support such a thing, but the simplest thing to say is this…
They care only about controlling a narrative that suits them. They do not, for one moment, care about life.
So, in wanting/needing to try and express the true horror of what these people have done, I ended up with this. Five bowling pins that defy all reason and logic by standing while that which by all rights should topple them is laid to ruin.
It’s simply something that shouldn’t be. And every day, every hour, every minute and second that it is what it’s come to be is an affront to common sense, democracy, compassion and decency.
And it’s so very, very heartbreaking.
