Boycott/ Divest and Pull your College App from All States which violate Our Daughters' Civil Rights

Anonymous
Maybe you could find some local Christians to boycott. Why let your pro life minority off the hook.

Make sure you don't visit any wineries or drink wines from the red parts of states. Also, no "red" beef, chickens, pork, veggies and grains. No "red" plumbing fixtures for your house, no "red" lumber, no seasonal plantings from "red" nurseries.


I’d sure as hell rather drink French or California wine. What are you even driveling on about. Most rich people in this country are progressive and pro-choice, now it’s time to punish anti-women, anti-choice states with our purchasing power. That includes the subsidies we have been giving to loser red states.


But France only has abortion on demand for 14 weeks; maybe you should look into plonk from upstate NY.


The obvious cure to all that ails us, politically and otherwise, is to drink California wine. Im republican and only drink American. This is a point on which we can have bipartisan agreement.

My daughter is planning to go to Michigan in the fall, but now I'm not sure if she should. It looks like for now they are keeping it legal there but the future looks uncertain...... Do you guys think it will be made illegal in Michigan?

They will be positively shaking when all the mail from Bethesda arrives!!!

It’s going to be a cold day in Dixie!!!

What buffoons.


Yet you are upset enough to post here.


DP. To be fair, the utter hysteria, frothing at the mouth, and nonsense being posted by people like you is quite entertaining.

Northern Virginia is never going to be red and we vote!


Pretty much. And RoVA needs NoVA. Can’t continue to screw us over and get away with it.

Crazy because dc is a place people come together from all over the union.


DC does indeed have a huge number of people from all around the country - and all around the world. But when they get here, they compare notes and start to realize how screwed up the rest of the country - and world is. We're not the ones in a bubble.


Why don’t you go find a dinner party and start ranting to Europeans about how restrictive their abortion laws are instead of gushing and seeking holiday tips.

Bubble my ass.

I’ll be at the nascar race today with my daughters who don’t need abortions. You do you.


Until they are date raped

DP. And yet, I bet you’re a huge advocate of sending billions of American dollars to Central American countries and watching them flush it down the toilet with their corruption, amirite? Latin American countries in which abortion is absolutely prohibited, btw. But you’re a-ok with that, as long as it makes you look virtuous and “kind” to those who want to immigrate here illegally. The hypocrisy is off.the.charts.

So, what I’m hearing is that you would like your state to be like Central America?

But France has abortions past 14 weeks if the pregnancy is detrimental to the mental health of the mother, among other reasons.

Abortion will not be made illegal in Michigan, unless there is a nationwide ban, in which case she will be very close to the Canadian border and can claim asylum. Please encourage her to register to vote in Michigan as soon as she gets to Ann Arbor - and to vote for Gretchen Whitmer for governor in November.

+1. Canada has already said they will treat Americans seeking abortions.

Great!

Will be easier for my kid to get into UVA!!

Seriously you will skip a top college like UVA, Rice, etc in these states for the ruling of the govt in that state? It’s not the colleges’s fault and they are not going to leave the state either. Anyways , your kids are only in school for like 6 months anyways…


What they type here and what they do when their kids get rejected from the other schools because of increased competition is very different.


These Red state Universities that today denied our daughters' their civil rights will go belly Up when we pull our daughters and son's college Apps

They have literally already committed the funds from this years admission yields to formulate their staff budget,the health insurance payments for their faculty, their returee pensions and the payments on their debt

The price for treating our daughters as less than equal citizens and exposing them to a Felony record is mass default to:

Tulane, Emory, Vanderbilt, Wash- U, Furman, Texas- Austin, Ole Miss, University of Kentucky... on and on and on

Each and every family will be taking its 200,00- $ 250,000 ( 1/4 million dollars ) tuition elsewhere.....

Your states will return to being economic backwaters


Did you ever stop to think that someone else can take those seats you choose to vacate?


DP Are you familiar with the phrase "out of state tuition?" It's different than what residents pay. Universities tend to like it.


So only people from Alabama will go to colleges in Alabama?


Look, I know what Alabama is like. UAB supports an incredible medical hub and great medical education. Alabama worked really hard to build that. They were rightfully proud of it.

But ... all that now comes with even bigger asterisk. So sure, if you have kids in Mississippi whose parents can afford out of state tuition, then maybe? But it's cheaper to go to Mississippi. The real money was coming from states not in the South.

And those wealthy Southerners are not going to want their kids' degrees to come with that big asterisk. Why would they pay OOS for Alabama, when they could afford a degree not tainted with the yee-haw hillbilly work?

You all have lost the progress you were working on for decades. Decades, and generations.

I'm a Northerner with a degree from UAB, which I knew because I grew up a cardiac kid, and the father-son Kirklin team in Birmingham with the clinic designed by I.M. Pei had perfected the technique I needed.

I spent a lot of conversations trying to explain the "new Alabama" to people. It was a damn hard sell. But if that was hard, just think about trying to sell something nobody wants to buy anymore. Sorry, you guys lost the ball on this one. That's something you will have to deal with. I guess it's worth it to you. Oh, well.


“It was cool for me to go to Bama for my top-notch medical education, but post-Dobbs nobody can or should go to Bama for their top-notch education.”

Whatever.

Go look at the teeny tiny map that shows the few states who still have abortion rights. Are you really suggesting everyone limits ourselves that way?

Did you see that Wisconsin is regressing? It’s not just the south.

Thank you, I completely forgot about her being able to go to Canada. She is already planning to register to vote as soon as she gets there.
