“He doesn’t have a lot of respect for women. We might as well be handmaids.”
That was the feeling among of a group of Orange County residents who, as they gathered to mourn the loss of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, also found themselves in shock and fearful of how Donald Trump might fill her seat.
In that spirit, 50-60 O.C. residents gathered at the Ronald Reagan Federal Building and US Courthouse in Santa Ana on Saturday for a vigil, but also to protest. There were kids, teens and adults, about 10 of whom dressed as handmaids from Margaret Atwood’s novel that became the Hulu series The Handmaid’s Tale.
“By next January, we’re all going to turn into Handsmaids,” said one of the event’s organizers, Lulu Hammad, who is founder of co-founder of Yailla Indivisible.
Hammad said that on Friday people she spoke with were “very sad and shocked that we lost RBG.” But, “the reason that we’re coming together,” she said, “is that all the women that I spoke to [on Friday], I heard terror in their voices.”
So they gathered up costumes that had been made for a 2017 post-election event and took to the streets. Little did they know how prescient the move was.
The event consisted of activists and also kids as young as 5, 6, plus some teenagers. They heard a speech from Farrah Khan, the Irvine City Council’s first Muslim member.
“She set the mood,” said Hammad, “reminding us who RBG was and that we shouldn’t despair; She left us with tools and we should continue the fight.”
Other people, including Hammad, spoke as well. There were candles, flowers and readings of quotes from Justice Ginsburg.

Farrah Khan? Calypso Louie sure gets around.
Look at them.
Too ugly to Handmaidens.
More like coyotes.
Little drama queen brats...
“Imagine protesting the imaginary dystopian world of the Handmaid’s Tale while supporting a party that would turn American into the dystopian world of The Hunger Games.”
Best line ever.
I’m stealing that.
Yawn, so overdone. Who would want those ugly harpies.
Including me.
I’m bettin’ even most women think that’s some silly sh!t.
Any dead babies show up?
Oh, of course not. They’re dead.
Thanks Ruth.
These people are out of their everlovin’ minds!!!!!! Time for a DNA check for demonic infiltration.
They’re retarded. That’s what’s wrong with them.
Very well put.
Actually, this whole thing must have been so ludicrous that no sane person could have watched it without laughing. The only thing that would have been better is if they had all worn their pussy hats as well.
Do they rent those wrinkled red robes from Hobby Lobby?

The lampshades on their heads crown some pretty dim bulbs.
“By next January, we’re all going to turn into Handsmaids”
It’s only September, and they’re giving up on slow Joe as the great white hope. Interesting.
Predictably idiotic.
The leftist author admitted that the original inspiration for the book was islam.
For these women all in a lather over Trumps SCOTUS pick this is all an indulgence.
