SO apparently Trump will make Birth Control unavailable? Who comes up with this shit

There's a birth control company who is giving discounts on birth control with the promo code DONALDTRUMP. That is true- I went to their site and put it in and they accepted it. Funny part about that is the site only sells CA, NY, DC and WA , and they are the states with the most affordable healthcare and birth control. They also all voted for Hillary. Coincidence? So I gave my 2 cents. And I will post every retort I had to give to the internet trolls who don't seem to understand my stance on this. HERE WE GO: ORIGINAL POST: If people don't have access to healthcare (including birth control) it's because of the current state of the healthcare system, and the government not making big pharmaceutical companies charge affordable prices for products. that being said. Reproduct ive rights start with your right to make a decision way before another life is involved. another life meaning a sex partner, and also a fetus. Such as your decision to have or not to have unprotecte...

Apparently abortion is a hot topic right now

The recent third and final presidential debate had a wildly - and slightly gory- leading topic...abortion. Hilary says the women have the right to choose, and even in late pregnancy she would not force a woman to give birth if it's detrimental to the health of the mother. Fair enough. The Donald said that he didn't agree with late term terminations, saying that it's not right to "rip the baby from the womb at 9 months". In his defense- he probably has no idea of the realities of child birth.  Because- all you out there on the 'ole interwebs- at 9 months, it's not abortion, it's straight up MURDER. However, a fetus can survive on it's own in this cruel outside world at 24 weeks. 24 weeks= 6 months. In fact, most states have banned  abortion at about 24 to 26 weeks of pregnancy So- depending on the state of the fetus, anything after that mile marker could be considered murder as well.  But what really riles me up is people...

A case FOR millenials FROM a 50+ year old

Her insight: "Some see millennials as trendy, spoiled, self-centered, privileged individuals. As a former teacher of this generation, and a follower of many, I feel they are leading the way in understanding and helping people understand privilege (whether it be white, male, straight... the list can go on and on, because we are finally are being held to the fire to respect the diversity that is America) and I think people of my generation have a lot to learn from them. My idealism, born of proximity to the first civil rights movement, the Vietnam Nam war, and "women's lib" see 'this as a effort to improve our world. Response # 1 to this statement:  But more importantly, our selfies are 0n fl33k*~ (I hope this is sarcastic.....?) Response #2:  Every generation takes heat from the certain obsolete minds of the preceding generations. (Kinda misogynistic to call people who are still living in this society "obsolete" but ok...) ( That's nice. They just...

The Giants game was on last night... and oh yeah two idiots were squabbling...

Trump says that if he was President, Hillary would be in jail.  People are saying that's a threat. So the question I posed to the old interwebs is: Why is it a threat when half the country is wondering why she's not there already?!?!?!?! And then someone gets ballsy and says "Actually not really, you must not have seen the recent polls" ACTUALLY- YES REALLY. Because, if you stand by the statement you just made, then you are clearly brainwashed by the media and not thinking for yourself. According to the polls, there are only two candidates. According to the polls, the numbers don't equal 100. According to the polls, each media outlet has different information coming through them. Here's my summary of the polls: A little more than half the country who's being accounted for likes Hillary, a little less than half the country likes Trump, and then there's a whole portion who's  UNACCOUNTED FOR. Please don't think that because she "pulled ...
