When your angry relatives finally get their way
This is what a "Death Panel" looks like. Odd, because the GOP spent the last decade saying single payer health care and abortion rights would lead to death panels. Turns out they just wanted to be the ones running the death panels. Flee the south! Flee red states! I know their are naysayers that want people to stay so they turn the areas blue. But my argument is those areas had their chances to get basic human compassion rights correct and they fail every time. They will never ever agree with the will of the people and will go back on any bill passed that protects marginalized communities. The only way they will "see the light" is if they look around their states and see no women; see no educated individuals; see no hard working youths; and see no business. Then maybe they will. It's not your responsibility to put your own life and your families lives at risk in hopes that things will get better. They won't! I live in Colorado, our state isn't perfect but for fuck sakes we're trying to make life better. I used to complain about all the out of state people moving here, but I realized the majority are political refugees fleeing areas in their own fucking country. We'd love to have you because we want to lead by example. Colorado used to be known as the "Hate State" and now is one of the most liberal and free states.
