whats it all about Alfie?

Dear Relatives

good morning  


why does it matter who is in the white house?  because they elect supreme court justices

as I hope you know a landmark really a landslide ruling that put us way way back into the dark ages was handed down by the us court   it was an all male cast that gave the majority and the women strongly dissented  as they should

it gave an employer the right to hold back insurance coverage due to religious convictions

this is not separation of church and state    this is discrimination big time

fortunately for us  we are not ruled by those justices  and we can make our own decisions

like boycotting hobby lobby     and I am not just talking about not shopping there  I am talking about other employers stepping up and giving hobby lobby employees better jobs at their place of business
we can help these employees find jobs that are not controlled by a religious right

right?  

remember that if our fellow employees are discriminated against   on the basis of religious choice and personal preference or reproductive freedoms

if healthcare benefits

or personal rights

or personal right to worship who we want or not which is the core of religious freedom

become the levers with which employers try and control employees then it is time we stood up and did what is necessary to shut those businesses down

so if you know someone who works at this kind of business  help find them a different job

as for the supreme court   lets over turn their decision

if our government chooses to support those who support discrimination  then it is time for a new and different government

if we allow this then next will be you relatives

next will be exactly what happened to my grandmothers mothers sister  which was she was not allowed to marry a white person because she was not considered a human being     this was in the late 1800s in Indian Territory   she was not considered a human being because she was a First Nation born human being  and the ruling class    the great straight white american law ruled she was not a person and thus had no right to marry the person she loved   even though it was a man

sound familiar

its time to replace the justices that think they can rule over women's bodies
its time to stop letting our government control our laws  our freedoms  our right to healthcare and preventative medicine  because we actually choose to use our freedoms

are we a democracy ?    are we a nation that puts up with this?  when is enough enough?

find out what you can do   and do it
