    Meet New Jersey state Sen. Edward Durr, a truck driver-turned-politician who has a habit of saying the quiet parts out loud.

    “A woman does have a choice! Keep her legs closed,” Durr wrote in a 2020 Facebook post, in which he also called a pro-choice woman an “idiot.” He also “liked” a post that called for “spaying women like dogs.”

      Yeah that was wild to read. I can’t imagine hating anything as much as the average conservative hates women. I feel bad for any woman unfortunate enough to grow up with a father like that. It can’t be easy.

        I can imagine it.

        I hate the average conservative at least as much as the average conservative hates women, minorities, non-Christians, and poor people.

        Because the intolerant cannot be tolerated.

            If taking up this battle makes me a fool, then so be it.

            I don’t seek approval from believable cretins anyway.

            I suspect I was born defective; too sensitive towards and with too much affinity for justice. And possessing a wanton disregard of my physicality in defense of the truth.

            So be it.
