Demonstrators attired in "Handmaid's Tale" garbs on Monday gathered outside the U.S. Supreme Court to voice their opposition to the nomination of Judge Amy Coney Barrett.
The striking red robes reference the clothing women are forced to wear in the fictional novel "The Handmaid's Tale" by Margaret Atwood in which an extremist Christian sect overthrows the U.S. government and strips women of nearly all their rights.
The outfit was similarly worn by demonstrators who protested during the confirmation hearings of Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
Those who oppose the nomination of Barrett fear that she will support the reversal of the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling that made abortion legal nationwide. Barrett has been critical of the ruling in the past. Many have also expressed concern that Barrett will work to take down the Affordable Care Act, legislation she argued against as a law professor at Notre Dame University.
Protestors chanted "Let the people decide!" to bring attention to the extreme brevity at which the nomination process has been conducted, occurring less than a month before the Nov. 3 presidential election.
Barrett's confirmation hearing began on Monday morning, attracting both supporters and critics.
Neither one would make a pimple on the good justice to be’s backside. Give them a dose of tear gas, followed by another if they can’t run fast enough.
ReplyDeleteThese dumbocrat are childish little children.
ReplyDeleteMakes me sick to think they get elected to anything.
They showed up for Kavanaugh's hearings, too. Never let a good costume go to waste, even if it isn't relevant.
ReplyDeleteMy God believes that all life is precious, but enough of this spin nonsense. Barrett is questioning the constitutionality of the Federal Government having jurisdiction. God bless the unborn babies and Judge Barrett. God Bless America.
ReplyDeleteGood for them going out....uhhhh won't make a difference. Next story!

ReplyDeleteThere's a big difference between being forced to be a breeder and being forced to deal with the consequences of your own decision to have sex. You don't want a baby? Don't have sex. Use birth control. Or give it up for adoption. No one on the right is trying to say rape victims must carry to term, so don't even try.
