This is hitting a little close to home. I took the poll and apparently 57.3% of Canadians agree that the Tories should cut funding to Planned Parenthood. That's really f*cking scary.

Article: Texas Cheerleader Must Compensate School That Told Her to Clap Rapist
Taken from: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/cheerleader-must-compensate-school-that-told-her-to-clap-rapist-2278522.html
A teenage girl who was dropped from her high school's cheerleading squad after refusing to chant the name of a basketball player who had sexually assaulted her must pay compensation of $45,000 (£27,300) after losing a legal challenge against the decision.
The United States Supreme Court on Monday declined to hear a review of the case brought by the woman, who is known only as HS. Lower courts had ruled that she was speaking for the school, rather than for herself, when serving on a cheerleading squad – meaning that she had no right to stay silent when coaches told her to applaud.

Article: Mothers We Could Save

Here’s a Mother’s Day thought: There’s a way to save many of the world’s 350,000 women who die in childbirth each year. But it’s very controversial, for it’s called family planning.
Republicans in Congress have gone on the warpath this budget season against family planning programs at home and abroad. To illustrate the stakes, let me share a Mother’s Day story about a pregnant 30-year-old Somali woman named Hinda Hassan.

WHAT IS THE GODDAMN PROBLEM WITH YOUR BRAINS?
THE EASY ANSWER TO RAPE IS THIS: DON’T WANT RAPE? DON’T RAPE PEOPLE.
DON’T WANT AN ABORTION? DON’T HAVE AN ABORTION.
NOW. YOU FAT WHITE MEN SITTING IN CONGRESS WITH YOUR CUSHY JOBS AND HEALTH INSURANCE AND PENISES CAN SUCK MY FUCKING DICK. LEAVE MY FUCKING VAGINA ALONE, YOU GODDAMN FUCKING ASSHOLES.
THIS FOR FUCKING EVER.
I JUST WANT THIS ON MY BLOG
