    Do these people not see the parallel between their actions and, say, requiring women to wear a burqa or cover their hair? Religion, or specifically religious extremism, has no place in a civilized educated multicultural world. You don’t like abortion? Don’t have one.

      Christo-fascists see extreme Muslim governments as a model to aspire to, not something to oppose.

    “Voting is only ok if we agree with the result.” That’s fascism, baby.

    Not to worry - the USA has a ‘well regulated militia’ constantly vigilant for blatant attacks on democracy.

    God doesn’t give any political rights in a system where there’s a separation of Church and State.

      They are fighting that one too and it’s easier for them to do since abortion one was a constitutional amendment but the weed one isn’t.

    This sounds an awful lot like a coup d’etat to me. Ohio Republicans are defying the established will of the people, and now the Ohio constitution

      They’ll proclaim it, on some fancy paper, and anyone who questions it gets a beatdown from their goons, at the least.
