What You Gonna Do When They Come for You?

Quoting Erykah Badu seems appropriate today after the SCOTUS overturned Roe v. Wade. What's next? According to Clarence Thomas, same-sex marriage and contraception are up for consideration. For every two steps forward that this country makes legislatively, we seem to take one step back. I wasn't surprised by the ruling today. For people who were, what did you think the right-wing appointees were being appointed for? The more conservative the SCOTUS became, the closer they got to overturning Roe. The Court was being stacked for this. Kavanaugh, Barrett, Gorsuch...the writing was on the wall with each appointee. 

Today they came for Roe v. Wade. Next year it might be contraception. The year after that it might be same-sex marriage. With the current crop of SCOTUS judges, I wouldn't be surprised.
