Well if you want your daughters to be second class citizens, then sure, it's fantastic.

We just have different views of things. It’s not second class. You sound nasty. Go do your twerking with your nearby abortion parlors and lay off people who live different from you.

Well, they just can't do that. You need to think like they do. There have been multiple posts on this thread along the lines if someone says the decision doesn't affect them, the response is well you need to thick of others, it's not all about you. However, think differently and you are a nobody, not human.

DP... The pro-choicers aren't forcing anything on you. If you don't believe in abortions, don't have one. They don't force abortions on you. But you pro-lifers DO force your policies, control and restrictions on THEM, violating their autonomy, their religious views and everything else, when it should be absolutely NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS what they do with their bodies. That is what makes you pro-lifers the far nastier people.

Apart from divesting our portfolio, purchasing, et cetera, we also have our lengthy travel bucket list, where we visit various cities, museums, shopping districts, landmarks, attractions like National Parks, regional food scene, et cetera around the country every year - Just updated, and reprioritized that list last night to sort it by state and color code it by how unfriendly each state is to women. We're taking our tourism dollars elsewhere - there are lots of fantastic choices outside of your repressive Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas etc.

You have a lot of time on your hands. I’m sure that those states and companies will be financially devastated by your absence.

You are “second class” if you can’t control your own body or major life choices.

They are beyond “nasty”; they are oppressors.

All of my kids - sons and daughters - think that the red states are sh1t holes. They actually are so disgusted by all of this GOP insanity that they want to move abroad.

Any intelligent, decent human would stay far away from the GOP/red states.

+2. This is true. My kids are the same.

We feel the same way. It makes me worried that it might be even harder to get into college in the blue states.

I wonder how many kids from red states will be looking to escape the insanity and only apply to schools in blue states.

Probably not that many. I don't think you have college aged kids, because ability to have an abortion is not exactly high on the list of a teenaged girl's wish list to pick a college. If she is privileged enough to go to an out of state college, if she thinks about it at all, she is probably thinking she will just go to where one is available if need be.

It’s not “the ability to have an abortion”, it’s how states fundamentally treat women. And other GOP insanity - attacks on LGBTQ, etc.

My early HS kids (son & daughter) are very vocal about their opinion of red states. If they were living in a red state I’m sure they’d be pushing to get TF out of the state for college. We are in VA and are already exploring options to move our family and business if the VA GOP attacks women.

I’m sure there are kids in red states who are disgusted by the GOP’s treatment of women (and other insanity) and want to leave.

People generally flee oppressive states/countries.

Rather than cut off all ties with the south, let’s try to figure out how we got here so we can then determine how to get things back on track.

Did your list include Virginia? The guy you elected already said he wants to take action, op. Or, are you only targeting “those Deep South” states dcum likes to criticize as backwards? I think your faux purple VA is just like the others on your list. So, shall we write off VA and aaaaaaalllllll those VA based corporations? Are you ready to bail on Amazon?

Not op, but I sure am.
Also, applications hardly reflect yesterday’s decision. And kids can continue to attend schools in these states - it’ll just be a lot more dangerous for the women. But, I support choice even if I disagree with the choice someone makes.

Literally 5% of the population lists abortion as their biggest issue that they’re voting on in the mid terms. This thread, and the posters on here, are way more focused on this issue than the majority of the population. This is becoming a boutique issue for upper middle class white women.

Europe has more restrictive abortion laws than New York and Washington DC. Are you going to forgo going there because they don’t allow getting unfettered abortions in the third trimester?

Personally, I’m refusing to go to states that don’t allow partial birth abortions.

Look at current demographic shifts in the US with this in mind.

Yes, we organize our lives, we plan things and we do things. We don't just sit around on DCUM not doing anything and whining about those who do.

And as for financial damage, you're utterly clueless if you think my family is the only one out there rebalancing and replanning as a result of conservative politics crossing line after line.

Where’s your polling data to back up your claim?

Look at the recent Monmouth poll. Only 5% of people list abortion as a issue they’re voting on in 2022.

Question #7 in the poll. 5 percent!!!

Not relevant. Europe isn't imposing their politics on my country.

Look at current demographic shifts in the US with this in mind.

More people are moving to red states than blue states, Latinos (a demo that who is overwhelmingly Catholic) give Biden lower approval ratings than whites, and the biggest rising star in the Republican Party is a Latina woman who flipped a border district in Texas red. Dems insistence on catering to social issues like LGBTQ and abortion that are largely supported by UMC urban whites but not a priority for Latinos in general is going to further this shift by Latinos to the right and Dems are going to go from being the party of the working class to the party of UMC white people and woke college kids, who are also mostly white. That’s not a winning coalition in a country that’s becoming increasingly brown and where the majority doesn’t go to college.

The ironic thing is that all these undocumented immigrants coming over are actually going to move this country right going forward.

Sounds like some rich white people stuff tbh. Must be nice.
