...I think the American response should be "Well, good luck. Hope things work out for you". "Hey EU, Mind Your Own Business".
In a 324-155 vote this week, the European Union Parliament passed a resolution condemning the Supreme Court of the United States for overturning Roe v. Wade. This is now the second time the EU Parliament has denounced the United States over the legal decision, claiming it undermines “human rights.” *********************************************** It should also be noted that, for the foreseeable future, most U.S. states will have abortion laws that are laxer than those in most of Europe. The Czech Republic, Denmark, Austria, Belgium, Italy, Germany, France, and Spain all have tighter restrictions on abortion than Sith Lord Ron DeSantis’s Florida. In Ukraine, a nation cleared for EU membership, and the bulwark of all world freedom, women must request abortions in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, unless the mother’s health is in danger — just like in Russia. Even nations like the Netherlands and Sweden, where laws are somewhat more permissive, are still stricter than places like Colorado, New York, or California.
So, Europe, stop your absurd moral preening. I know: why don't you go build a Maginot Line or something?
I know I've said it before, but we really need to decide beforehand that whoever conquers France has to keep it.
ReplyDeleteI just hope it"s Germany or Russia.
Yep.

The actual reason for the criticism isn't the point. Knee-jerk criticism of the US is.
