░░░░░░░░ a decision on abortion ░░░░░░░░ Roe v Wade and ░░░░░░░░ ll quote directly from ░░░░░░░░ tweet The six justices ░░░░░░░░ overturned Roe should never ░░░░░░░░ peace again It is ░░░░░░░░ civic duty to accost ░░░░░░░░ every time they re ░░░░░░░░ public They are pariahs ░░░░░░░░ women don t have ░░░░░░░░ rights these justices should ░░░░░░░░ have a peaceful moment ░░░░░░░░ public again I know
