Examples
“The hypocrisy was in the Roe decision. Blackmun basically said that fetii have⟳ no rights granted by the Constitution, but proceeded to give⟳ them rights. If he truly believed that the Constitution gives fetii no rights, why then proceed to give⟳ them the little protection he did?”
“On the subject of dead fetii in party hats: I’ve posted this link⟳ before, but it seems more “born still angles [sic]” have⟳ been added to the collection. The first one (looks like⟳ Yoda, clasping a teddy bear⟳) has passed its sell-by date⟳ and has grown moldy. Not for the weak of stomach.”
“I have⟳ posted a picture of the properly assembled centerpiece on ABPT. I must admit⟳, putting it back together Scopata’s way is nicer, the lights give⟳ all the fetii a pale pink fetusy look⟳. Much better!”
