”...and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.”

I had the option to have a nurse come to my home because I stayed only one day at the hospital after delivery. I knew how I felt; I wanted her to assess my baby.

She spent the whole time asking what birth control I planned to use. Finally I told her I hadn’t ever had an unplanned pregnancy; that what contraception I might use wasn’t her concern; and that the visit wasn’t what I had looked for at all.

Funny thing was, a month later the nurse sent me and my husband a letter of apology: she had realized that my husband’s mother was a doctor she used to work with in the Family Practice Clinic at the hospital and truly respected, and that when she went out on visits she usually saw a different class of people (i.e. the uneducated and underclass) and that what she had been taught to discuss wasn’t appropriate with our kind of people.

This might be the only time in my life I’ve been “our kind of people.”

Now “our kind of people” probably come in for extra suspicion. White, married, educated, church-going, self-supporting...and we’re replicating...making little conservatives...what freaky Nazi thing do we do when no one’s looking...

This is nuts. Can anyone advise if it is prima facie unconstitutional?

“Democrats are evil.”

Michael Walsh said it best: The Democratic Party is a criminal organization masquerading as a political party.

If they spot a MAGA hat on your coat rack they’ll confiscate your kid immediately.

I had the local government come to me in my hospital room after I gave birth (c section). I was groggy from meds and alone, trying to rest, and she was telling me to sign here to get “free food for myself and the baby.” It was WIC. I told her I was not eligible. She told me to sign up anyway because who knows if I might need food for me and the baby one day... I didn’t sign, but how many groggy postnatal new moms, plenty with language issues, just sign right up?!

A dangerous mentality, that. There is no respect of persons with God.

Why is it that busybodies never consider that people who have nothing to hide are averse to intrusion, precisely because a busybody's judgment is suspect at best.

Those who have the least ability or interest in discerning good from evil are the same types who set themselves as judges over others, with the power of thug government behind them.

That's not even taking into account the control freaks with malicious intent.

Pinging the homeschool list because of the potential for government intrusion and abuse by said government employees.

I could see a real problem when a homeschool mom has child number >2 and the visiting government drone scrutinizes the entire premises.

Some pissed off dad ought to use a bat and break all 102 bones of the investigator at the front door.

Then stip off the clothes, yell KREEGAH!, and disappear running down the street.

As you Oregonians are so proud of saying “Stay Weird, Oregon.”

They want to see what’s in your home. No doubt most are packing small body-cams, for training purposes of course. These Democrats are nutzo.

After the populace gets used to this, they’ll just come and take the kids to be raised in proper indoctrination centers. And the sheeple will comply.

I personally know many Native Americans who were raised in government-sponsored indoctrination centers rather than by their parents...

Control freaks with malicious intent are more likely to end up in administrative positions than ordinary drones who ask intrusive questions mostly because they’re told to do so.

She sounds more like a pedophile/child molester-by-proxy than a governor. Well, the assholes in Oregon elected her, so you can blame them for their Marxist mental illness and authoritarianism.

#32. Great find.

New billboard saying with either this photo and caption (if legal), or a similar one that says “Democrats, they mostly come in the early morning. Keep your doors locked and guns loaded”.
