FReepers sadly Amendment 3 in Missouri passed

God help us

[crusty old prospector]

But the stock market soared to new heights!

I’m in Missouri, too, and many of us truly did work hard to defeat this. It just wasn’t enough to overcome the barrage of lies and dark money coming into the state, and the fear-mongering.

There is a petition out to overturn the amendment, but the language in it concerns me.

There was fear among younger mothers who have experienced miscarriage that their care for a miscarrying mother would be compromised if this amendment did not pass. I didn't like the language and fear that it enables children to enter gender reassignment programs on their own.

Why is it that social issue legislation--which always has to be in the form of a vague amendment with no attached regulations--always peaks just in time for a Presidential election? Lotteries, casinos, stem cell, gay marriage, pot, and the next one will probably be funding trans surgeries or euthanasia. This is getting very, very old.

[Pollard]

Thoroughly disappointed in my home state. Of course we’ve all been hearing about how 25% of Christians don’t vote so who’s to blame here? Can Christians blame it on Dems, women, society or the devil if they refuse to participate?

MAGA: Make Americans Good Again.

Because a population which is not virtuous will never make a great nation.
