The 15 00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:17.879 door responsibly and enjoy you. So today's episode, I actually had a whole 16 00:01:17.959 --> 00:01:23.480 different topic in mind, but there was a topic or something that I read 17 00:01:25.319 --> 00:01:30.000 that really bothered ready touchdown in my and my spirit. I just wanted to 18 00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:41.439 have a conversation with you all about that. But I saw yesterday that the 19 00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:48.400 US Supreme Court, the highest court in the country then get no higher than 20 00:01:48.439 --> 00:01:53.599 them, voted did he. I didn't even add no idea this, this 21 00:01:53.719 --> 00:01:57.599 was even on their agenda in any shape form of fashion. But they voted 22 00:01:59.959 --> 00:02:08.599 to overturn completely row versus weight. Now, for those of you don't know 23 00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:17.000 what row versus weight is, what it means. It means the right for 24 00:02:17.240 --> 00:02:24.919 woman to terminate her pregnancy if she chooses to, her life her body. 25 00:02:28.199 --> 00:02:35.199 So that was a huge deal back in when it was in court and everything. 26 00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:40.000 It's before my time, you know, but still it held on. 27 00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:46.879 True, there were laws put in place in certain states after that the case 28 00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:54.400 to be able to manage and regulate that decision. But somewhere down the line, 29 00:02:54.479 --> 00:03:00.120 in somewhere recently, in the last number of years or so, have 30 00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:04.560 been, you know, the state's putting in laws here and there. You 31 00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:13.719 know, one of these states is Texas, outlawing or making abortion illegal perfectly 32 00:03:14.680 --> 00:03:20.360 after six weeks, saying that in six weeks, you know, you cannot 33 00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:25.280 then in turn termit to pregnancy. Well, those of us. You know 34 00:03:25.360 --> 00:03:30.039 who. You know the science class or no biology or past biology. We 35 00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:35.680 know that most women, you know it's not all, but most women don't 36 00:03:35.719 --> 00:03:40.280 know, realize they're pregnant until they're around six weeks or so. So you 37 00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:47.319 mean to tell me that this woman in turn find out she's pregnant, or 38 00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:52.439 mean not goin to she spread to see six weeks or later now in turn, 39 00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:54.240 Oh, it's illegal to get an abortion. Oh you're going to go 40 00:03:54.280 --> 00:04:01.719 to jail ifew abhord this, this pregnancy really, but tell me how. 41 00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:13.479 I just think it's utterly ridiculous. Now, I'm not saying I'm pro life 42 00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:18.959 or not saying I'm pro choice. I don't have, I'll have a dog 43 00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:24.319 in that fight in any shape form of fashion, because I'm main but I 44 00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:27.360 do think and I do believe, and I believe this whole heart. I 45 00:04:27.439 --> 00:04:36.800 stand down that woman. That woman has a right to say if she's whether 46 00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:43.360 she's talked about it, you know, with a spouse, boyfriend or other 47 00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:48.560 mitigating circumstances. I think she has a right to say whether or not she 48 00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:55.800 chooses to bring a life into this world, she chooses to terminate that pregnancy, 49 00:04:56.519 --> 00:04:59.959 go through that pregnancy or whatever the case may be. I think that 50 00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:09.560 woman has that right. I don't think the government, president, judicial system, 51 00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:15.879 legislative system, any of them, has the right to tell any woman 52 00:05:15.959 --> 00:05:24.360 that she has to have a child that she may or may not want, 53 00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:28.839 because that's that's that's that's be real about this. Cousins and can folks, 54 00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:36.000 let's take a look at this thing. Most people who are all rowdy about 55 00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:44.360 this Lisa, the same people that don't want to give assistance and taking care 56 00:05:44.439 --> 00:05:54.160 of these children. Let this sink in for a moment. The same people 57 00:05:55.600 --> 00:06:01.879 who are up in an uproar about banning abortion. Woman should have a baby, 58 00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:09.199 save this life, but when that life gets here, you're dead set 59 00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:15.160 against if this woman isn't in the position to be able to financially take care 60 00:06:15.199 --> 00:06:23.680 of this child, you then in turn or against government assistance in helping this 61 00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:29.160 woman take care of this child. So make it makes sense to meet people. 62 00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:31.480 It doesn't make sense to me and it is shape form of fashion. 63 00:06:33.199 --> 00:06:41.399 Now, I'm not saying that I'm the smartest apple in the room or the 64 00:06:41.439 --> 00:06:48.319 sharpest tool in the tool box, but I got common sense and I'm here 65 00:06:48.399 --> 00:06:53.680 to tell you the math, and that as as some of my folks say 66 00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:58.279 that mad think math and in any shape form of fashion. You feel me, 67 00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:05.319 it's not so. Now, after however many decades, the Supreme Court 68 00:07:05.399 --> 00:07:12.279 has decided to overturn roll versus way to make abortion completely illegal. So you 69 00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:15.480 mean this, it and tail me, and I don't know when this is 70 00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:18.759 going to go into effect. I once I find out more, I'll do 71 00:07:18.920 --> 00:07:25.639 I'll follow up on that in a later episode, but not quite sure right 72 00:07:25.680 --> 00:07:29.120 now when it will take effect. But in the event when it does, 73 00:07:29.160 --> 00:07:32.079 so you mean the all. Mean let's say, for instance, we have 74 00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:44.639 a woman that may have been sexually assaulted and this person, this creature, 75 00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:49.040 didn't use protection and she may have not have been able to get into the 76 00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:55.879 hospital time enough for them to give her a plan be. Or she did. 77 00:07:56.000 --> 00:08:01.759 Let's say the plan be didn't work. She finds out she's pregnant. 78 00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:13.279 So you're going to make this woman who has been assaulted now have to intern 79 00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:18.399 for the next nine months, be constantly and that she's already dealing with it, 80 00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:24.279 but be constantly reminded every time she every moment of every second of every 81 00:08:24.399 --> 00:08:30.399 day, of what this horrible person did to her. She's to be reminded, 82 00:08:30.439 --> 00:08:35.679 with this child growing inside of her. Now there's some maybe women that 83 00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:39.440 are maybe okay with it and may be able to be able to mentally an 84 00:08:39.480 --> 00:08:45.320 emotionally handle it. And if they choose to go forward with it and say 85 00:08:45.320 --> 00:08:50.960 that they're going to love that child regardless, that's fine. If you're religious 86 00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:56.519 beliefs, of views of hinder you from doing that in any shape form of 87 00:08:56.559 --> 00:09:01.919 fashion, that's fine as well. But again, it should be that woman's 88 00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:07.080 choice not to be made, hear me clearly, not to be made to, 89 00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:16.519 in turn, go through every gestational period of this child growing inside of 90 00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:26.039 her and being constantly reminded of what happened to her. It shouldn't happen. 91 00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:33.600 That's horrible, that'ss and you made. That's in humanity, no matter how 92 00:09:33.639 --> 00:09:39.240 you look at it, how you try to conceive it. That's even my 93 00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:41.480 point of view, and again this is just my opinion now, cousins and 94 00:09:41.559 --> 00:09:46.679 King folks, but my Olp, in my point of view, that's just 95 00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:52.360 as agregious as the assault on her. Now she's being made by the government 96 00:09:54.039 --> 00:10:00.000 to have this child. She's not only been assaulted once and violated, she 97 00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:03.559 has been assaulted twice by the government, because now they're mentally and emotionally assaulting 98 00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:18.759 her, making her carried this child to turn. No, that's crazy. 99 00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:26.440 I don't care how you flip it, strip it, Cook it, throw 100 00:10:26.440 --> 00:10:28.879 it out, the pain on the floor, whatever. I don't care how 101 00:10:30.120 --> 00:10:41.759 you do it. It's wrong. It's wrong. It's wrong. What if 102 00:10:41.759 --> 00:10:50.200 a situation occurs that, let's say she does get pregnant and this woman has 103 00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:56.159 health issues, you know, that could put her life at risk. She 104 00:10:56.240 --> 00:11:01.159 may be high risk for pregnancy and, on top of that, something else 105 00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:09.279 may happen that you know, the child May may not come out right or 106 00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:15.480 something may be wrong, the child may be physically the form of something like 107 00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:18.759 that. And this has been determined and whatever. So you're still going to 108 00:11:18.799 --> 00:11:26.240 make this woman go through this pregnancy versus just going on and determinate this pregnancy, 109 00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:35.559 where as you're putting her and this child's life at risk. Again, 110 00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:41.840 should be her choice. If she chooses to do so. Again, that's 111 00:11:41.960 --> 00:11:48.000 understood. Will forward. There's nothing to see here. But again, it's 112 00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:58.759 still should be her choice, her choice, not again, not the government, 113 00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:05.600 not the law or anything of that particular nature. This country is supposed 114 00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:09.840 to be built into democracy. What's good is the constitution saying that you have 115 00:12:11.320 --> 00:12:15.039 right there all these different freedoms, or whatever the case may be. If, 116 00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:18.039 in turn, now you're trying to put limits or you trying to restrict 117 00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:30.000 these freedoms, make it makes sense. Make it makes sense, but we're 118 00:12:30.080 --> 00:12:33.960 you're going to have what you're going to make happen with this and, as 119 00:12:33.960 --> 00:12:37.919 I understand again, this is before my time, little bit before my time, 120 00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:41.399 and some of it missed. have been going on when I was a 121 00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:45.399 kid or whatever the case may be. But I've seen these in these movies 122 00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:48.720 and I've heard these stories. What's going to happen is they're going to go 123 00:12:48.759 --> 00:12:54.399 back to these back alley doctors having these backali abortions. They're going to go 124 00:12:54.440 --> 00:13:01.080 back to going to other countries like Mexico. You know, as I understood 125 00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:05.399 when I still live in California, most women with they gotten pregnant, they 126 00:13:05.399 --> 00:13:11.480 want to go have an abortion, they go to Tijuana. They go to 127 00:13:11.480 --> 00:13:16.919 Tijuana, pay little nothing, have an abortion, combat good to go. 128 00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:26.559 But this is what you're going to make happen and a lot of that is 129 00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:35.039 safe. No one, no woman, should have to go to those extremes 130 00:13:35.039 --> 00:13:41.120 for something that she has a right to because, again, it's her body, 131 00:13:46.559 --> 00:13:52.000 no government, no agency, and I'm going to even go even further 132 00:13:52.080 --> 00:14:01.039 than that. No Man should be able to tell any woman what she can 133 00:14:00.759 --> 00:14:07.399 and can't do with her body in any shape form of fashion. No Man 134 00:14:07.480 --> 00:14:11.440 or woman, no woman, should have to go through that in any shape 135 00:14:11.440 --> 00:14:18.679 form of fashion. That's just how I see that's just my belief. But 136 00:14:18.840 --> 00:14:22.799 this has to this this no, no, we're not going for that. 137 00:14:22.960 --> 00:14:26.759 I'm not going for that. And again, cousins and King folks, this 138 00:14:26.919 --> 00:14:33.559 is just my opinion. This is just how I see it. It's just 139 00:14:33.679 --> 00:14:41.120 how I see it. But again, no means no and we should respect 140 00:14:41.159 --> 00:14:46.720 that. But this whole turnover, this whole ordeal, it's going to turn 141 00:14:46.799 --> 00:14:50.320 bad. This is going to be more and more weeks, more and more 142 00:14:50.440 --> 00:14:58.480 months, of battles in court, on on, on the local level, 143 00:14:58.759 --> 00:15:05.240 state level, to the forward. There are a lot of groups out there 144 00:15:05.240 --> 00:15:09.480 now and I'm pretty sure they're going to fight this. But this is this 145 00:15:09.600 --> 00:15:18.639 is this is bad. This is a bad look on this nation. It's 146 00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:31.240 a slap in the face to all women. It is it's bad look for 147 00:15:31.360 --> 00:15:33.879 whatever reason. Again, I don't have all of the details, who, 148 00:15:33.879 --> 00:15:39.000 of when or how long this has been on their agenda, this has been 149 00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:46.720 on the table, or whatever the case may be, but this is a 150 00:15:46.799 --> 00:15:56.759 bad look for the Supreme Court and for those that may have some political agenda 151 00:15:56.000 --> 00:16:04.320 behind this. Our Mother's, are sisters, are Auntie's and our daughters should 152 00:16:04.440 --> 00:16:21.960 not have to pay for this foolishness. Should not at all. So whatever 153 00:16:22.080 --> 00:16:26.440 you can do, whatever organization that you may can write in on or email 154 00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:33.399 or go talk on talk to somebody on the local level, of Congressman's, 155 00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:38.679 your your Alderman's, of City Council persons, whatever the case may be, 156 00:16:41.960 --> 00:16:45.679 got to stand up and fight this. This is no this is a note. 157 00:16:48.200 --> 00:16:49.399 Most of you all to know me. No, I have a saying 158 00:16:51.159 --> 00:16:55.360 that. I say that definitely right here. That is a negative. Goes 159 00:16:55.440 --> 00:17:03.399 Rider. That is a negative. This cannot stand, this cannot ride. 160 00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:14.200 Again, I say no agency, no government, no official, no man 161 00:17:15.799 --> 00:17:23.279 can tell a woman what she can or cannot do. It's with the decisions 162 00:17:23.319 --> 00:17:36.240 concerning her body. It's her body, it's her choice and we're wrong to 163 00:17:36.319 --> 00:17:44.519 try to take that from my mother's, our sisters, Auntie's and I thought 164 00:17:44.599 --> 00:17:51.440 us.
