2. I've somehow learned to read this shit & say, "Oh, another day," and move on.

If I hadn't, I'd have blown an artery by now.

[Thinkingabout]

3. When I read about less protection for women I know the one speaking has to be Republican.

I was right again. It would seem to me if it was a sanctuary city they would be pushing for those kits to be tested in order to deport the perpetrator of that person is here illegally. I wonder if he feel the same way if his wife was raped.

4. What a sadistic bastard!

Is there no end to cruelty they wish to impose on the women in this country? Why are they so hateful? Why are they only going after the women?

5. What could possibly be a justification for that?

Oh, never mind.

Same old GOP.

6. But...Trump said they were doing the raping so if we don't test...oh never mind

9. Oh, for God's sake -- they are ALREADY backlogged

in many if not most cities!

[TreasonousBastard]

11. Well, shit! With all the thousands of untested rape kits out there...

why not just make not testing them the official stance and stop worrying about it?

[flibbitygiblets]

13. True, this has been priority zero for decades. Still I'd love to hear the rationale for this.

[enough]

12. Cruelty and sadism, the Republicans' policy touchstones. NT

[Squinch]

14. We should always put their names on these posts: Buddy Carter, (R), GA.

Give them credit for their cheap deals with the devil.
