Simultaneously incredible and horrifying, there are people out there who sincerely wish to repeal the 19th amendment (which gave women the right to vote), and other amendments — #repealthe19th is trending nationally.
The Jackson Free Press has a blog post up which opens a window into what’s being said. You know how it is, you know in the back of your mind that people say these kinds of things but it’s really amazing to see them ‘in the wild’. For example :
...one of the things I talked about with Jim DeMint was how we need to work to get more men out to vote, and encourage women to stay home...
I'm a woman and I totally agree. Women are destroying the west
why did we ever give the vote to women and blacks?
The blog goes on to say:
The post also contained calls for repeal of the 15th (gave blacks right to vote), 16th (federal taxation), 17th (electing senators by popular vote) and 19th Amendments (women right to vote) ... "NOW."
I hope they’ve got a big box of tissues ready for Nov. 9th, is all I gotta say. :)
