A throng of almost 6 women stood outside Hobby Lobby protesting 'their oppression of women.'

My wife looked at the pics and said "They're ugly. Why would they need birth control?"

Someone please buy these women some knitting needles.

There is a reason why women are a target group of the democratic party.

I said the same thing when I've seen the pics from around the country.

So a private company not wanting to pay for your lifestyle is now subjugating women with different lifestyles?

I wondered the same. Maybe one was a "little person".

Perhaps: One is pregnant. Since she wants Hobby Lobby to pay for her abortion drugs, she does not consider it a "person"...but, it is ALMOST a person.....


Thus, "almost 6 people"









I'm just spit-balling here


(which, if these chicks would do...they would not need HL birth control stuff)

Saddest part is Hobby Lobby already pays for their lifestyles without objection. They cover the pill, patch, ring, and diaphragms. But that's still not good enough for some people.

I have an individual plan and shopped around, so I find these protestors particularly foolish. Hobby Lobby employees have 100% of the cost covered for multiple options. That's a FAR better deal than most people get for every other prescription.

I think he is referring to the weird looking Caleb Chang as the "almost" 6th woman.

Does that meet the requirements to be a "throng"?

I didn't even know we had a Hobby Lobby up here. I always went to Michael's on Youree.

If I didn't have to study, I'd go get my kicks watching confused and irrelevant, likely single, women waste their time.

The rally was an awakening for Terra Slack, a 52-year-old New Orleans native who said it marked the first time in her life she felt called to political action. “It’s so important that we help our society move out of the Stone Age and stop subjugating women and people with different lifestyles.”


This infuriates me. She didn't feel called to political action when struggling families were slammed by massive premium increases. She didn't feel called to action when Obama murdered an American citizen and his minor son by drone strike, She didn't feel called to action when cancer patients were cut off from their existing plans and their doctors.

I would consider those things to be subjugation. And as far as tolerating "different lifestyles", she is the one who wants the government to force HER values (or lack thereof) on everyone whether they agree with her or not.

Don't get angry over this. These individuals are likely unintelligent and driven by emotions (more than normal for women).

It is useless to waste your emotions on the weak minded and fervently ignorant.

I was going to go shopping at HL today, but I was informed that they're closed on Sundays.

I wonder if the throng of almost 6 will still be out there?
