        It's not going to end; it's only going to get worse.
        Those who are anti-choice are not working to end Roe V. Wade <i>directly</i>; they are trying to legislate abortion so much that it is nearly impossible for anyone to actually get (unless you are rich, of course).

          Yeah, but fuck those children and those mothers once they're out of the womb.  They can starve to death on the street.
          There's gotta be a way to turn this around.

    That first article is by the awesome Geof Pullum of the also-awesome Language Log blog, which does lots of language debunking. Awesome for any grammar-nerd skeptics out there.
