You know how sometimes something is so wrong it's screamingly right?



THIS IS IT. I'm speechless. I am. This is either extremely brilliant or really, really sad. Either way, it's scary and should probably be kept away from children.

In other ' you won't believe it till you see it': Pro-Life Group up in Arms over Krispy Kreme's doughnuts. See, apparently Krispy Kreme Doughnuts decided to honour American's sense of pride and freedom of choice on Inauguration Day, by offering a free doughnut of choice to every customer on this historic day, Jan. 20. Okay, PR thing for Obama taking over as President, but no worse than some of the others, right?

Yes!, says pro-life group. See, The unfortunate reality of a post-"Roe v. Wade" America is that 'choice' is synonymous with abortion access, and celebration of 'freedom of choice' is a tacit endorsement of abortion rights on demand," the group's president, Judie Brown said in a statement.

Yeah. I see how that makes sense. IF YOU'RE BATSHIT. Did 'freedom of choice' in PRESIDENTS occur to you, batshit people of batshitness?

People can be really, really scary. HOLD ME.

Thank you for making my friends believe I hate them after showing them that video. Microsoft really does bring the special sometimes - hard to believe that anything could be worse than ME or Vista.

As for the other link...*headdesk* This woman is either misguided enough to think it's April Fool's Day or has had her brain removed. I thought 'freedom' was the top American value?

It's apparently just freedom. Not choice. Choice is baaaaaaaaaaad. Should never go along with freedom at all.

(Seriously, I can get some annoyance if a cause monopolizes a word somewhat, but this is dumb as shit. Choice is still a word used in everyday speech FFS.)

The horror of this video must be shared. Truly, you're not complete as a human until you've seen it.

Yeah, good luck with the Krispy Kreme thing, Pro-Lifers. Most Americans would get on their knees and bark for a free glazed KK.

Don't think I've ever had one. Possible I tried them while I was in the US, but I don't really remember trying.

But I do hope KK has some funny reply to this, hopefully involving more free doughnuts to the American public. With batshit like this, you need some tasty.

Krispy Kreme donuts are LEGENDARY here in the states... if you ever come back stateside for a visit, I'll get you some.

And yes, free donuts are always awesome :3

Some people need to be smacked with a newspaper and told to get over themselves.

(And then they need doughnuts. You cannot be properly outraged with a mouthful of doughnut. Doughnuts just have a way of calming people.)

I've heard about that vid, but I'm too scared to watch it. From what I've heard, I don't know that I have the intestinal fortitude required to watch it.

My message to the batshit pro-lifers: I'm sure most people taking advantage of the "choice" Krispy Kreme is offering will not only NOT be thinking about babies or even presidents, but of happy tastebuds instead, quickly followed by thoughts of panic regarding expanding waistlines in the post-holiday diet heavy month of January.

With ads like those, I'm glad I don't have a TV 0_o But but...it's like something out of a commercial dystopia where all music and art are dead and programs control the extent of human imagination. Oh, Wall-E.

'tacit endorsement of abortion' indeed. Surely the lady protests too much against krispy-creme donuts..mm.

I love how I find so much batshit American-ness through you than I find actually living here. *hugs the SF bay area tight*

I never realize how much of a bubble I live in until I see stuff like this. And I used to think that my town was soooo conservative growing up. (Our rep should have been a clue.)

The unfortunate reality of a post Roe v. Wade America is that 'choice' is synonymous with abortion access, and celebration of 'freedom of choice' is a tacit endorsement of abortion rights on demand.

But that's really how they see it. Women shouldn't have abortions because that's giving them freedom and choices about their sexuality.

From: [identity profile] misscam.livejournal.com
It seems to boil down to that for quite a few on that side of the argument, yeah. Though there is a much more philosophical side to the issue about where you consider life to begin - just people who come from that side of it often end up personally against abortion, but believeing they can't choose for others. Which... Yeah. Some moral choices you should make for yourself, but that doesn't give you the right to push them on others.

Well "save the babies" makes a great argument, but you listen long enough, and it all comes down to "how dare that woman try to get out of her place as a babymaker?" Either she screwed around outside marriage, and she's a whore who should bear her child as a punishment and scarlet letter, or she's a wife, and should be popping out as many babies as possible. Women are supposed to be chained down with babies and that's that.

Sorry, couldn't watch that all the way through. *shudder*

Remy shared that story with me this morning. Be sure to read the comments -- a lot of them are glorious.

This is a glorious testament to the personal freedoms and open-mindedness of our time.

Think: It is now possible and accepted for mentally retarded individuals to organize themselves and achieve political influence.

SCARY. Yeah, that's the only appropriate adjective for this abomination.

Re: the Doughnut affair = I think I'm gonna go and puke now. Why do all the batshit people of doom have a role in society that grants them total freedom of speech (with lack of brains to match)?!?

Er, that 'people of batshitness' is directed at the organisation, not Americans in general if that's what you thought. Sorry if you got that impression.

Oh I know who it was aimed at...but you have to understand. I live in California's bible belt (yes California actually has a bible belt) which means that those nutters are rather plentiful right here in my neighbourhood. You should see all the anti choice propaganda posted on billboards around here.

My only hiccup with your invite to Norway is winter. I loathe the cold something fierce! Thankfully it is nice and toasty on the side of the planet I was born on...and where I plan to escape to eventually.

2. WTF? I think referring to this person as batshit is a serious insult to bats and their fecal matter. Seriously. What the HELL is she ON!?! Choice=Abortion? Really? I have to believe that people like tat suffer from an uncontrollable chemical imbalance, because to think that there is NOTHING wrong inside their brains and yet they can STILL make that kind of a connection just makes me want to curl up in a ball and hide. *shudders*
