[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Until the Equal Rights Amendment is enacted, women shouldn’t have to register for the draft. If our government doesn’t recognize us as equal, why should we be forced to fight and possibly die for our country?[/quote]

WTF are you talking about? How are women not equal to men under the law?[/quote]

We don't have the right to choose medical procedures our doctors deem necessary; can you name a procedure men need to save their lives that they can't get because men created a law to stop that procedure?[/quote]

Sorry but bull crap. Women created that law too. As much as I agree that men have definitely drafted and passed majority of the laws in this country, including the selective service one, women are just as much to blame for the recent Dobbs decision as men. Women have as much voting power in this country as men do. Vote them out and abortion will be legal everywhere again. I see so many women crying murder when it comes to this issue and voting to have the rights stripped away from them.

Anything else? I said women are equal under the law and they are. They need to serve in case of a draft. Period. [/quote]
Voters are not responsible for Dobbs. Voters have selected the Democratic candidate for president in 7 of the last 8 elections, but the candidate who lost the popular vote went on to win the electoral college vote in 2000 and 2016. Voters selected Al Gore to be appointing SC justices, but we got George W. Bush’s first term instead, and he appointed Justice Alito during that term. Voters selected Hillary Clinton in 2016, but we got Donald Trump instead, and he appointed Justices Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Coney Barret. Four of the current 9 SC justices were appointed against the will of the people. Those same 4 are 4/5 of the justices who signed on for the Dobbs decision. Dobbs does not represent the will of the people at all. That’s why there was no red wave in the recent midterms.

Don’t you dare blame Dobbs on women or voters in general. Place the blame squarely where it belongs: extreme right wingers.[/quote]

Dobbs put the abortion decision right back where it always was, in the states where you can vote.  Unfortunately, I live in Maryland, which allows unlimited abortion, but if I want to, I can move or I can advocate publicly for new laws.  You have the same opportunity.

You also need to spend some time studying civics.  On what planet did Hilary Clinton win the 2016 election?[/quote]
