A Democrat sides with Republicans on this Topic

T his is reprehensible!  https://www.advocate.com/politics/2021/3/18/democratic-politician-architect-south-carolina-anti-trans-bill I am aware that some who read this may disagree with the issue of trans girls (or trans boys) playing in women's or girls' sports.

Abortion doctors were murdered and death threats to healthcare providers were prevalent.  Even if l felt sad or angry of a child being yanked away from natural life l failed to realize at the time the dire and devastating consequnce of an unwanted pregnancies that women face.
