Just calm down. You're letting your own emotions get the best of you.

That would be just great if that were all it was. We have been killing millions for years now. The notion of quality of life as justification has been growing wider in its' scope year by year. The pro life crowd has lost in every way it can except a few illusions and "Potemkin" victories. The election of a "Pro life" politician who then does nothing for the next 2-6 years except call on us for money and support. The Courts get worse and the definition of what is "legal" grows more outrageous. Partial Birth Abortion is a great example. I had been lead to the understanding that Roe v Wade would never prevent states from regulation abortions after the first Trimester, but here we are and much of this has happened under GOP Presidents and since 1994 a GOP Congress.

Will Congress do anything about Contempt of Congress? no.
Will Congress hold hearings on a run away court? no.
Cut their budget? no.
Reconfigure districts? no.

Most have ignored recent history. I'm not talking about things that happened in your parents or grandparents lifetime, I mean our adult lifetime. This is the only explanation for how far people have let their values drift.

I do not know where your line in the sand is. But you will have to keep redrawing that line or they will cross it faster than you can imagine. It is an avalanche of misery ahead because we have been half buried already.
