This Spam’s An Abortion
I never thought I’d say this, but spam can be enlightening.
I’m referring to a recent spam flurry promoting home abortion kits. And we have Republicans to thank for this disturbing trend. After all, newly empowered Republicans have been targeting abortion rights in a big way. And at the state level they’ve been very successful at severely limiting women’s reproductive rights.
Who knew that when Republicans claimed to be pro-small business, they were talking about abortion kit scam artists?
That brings me to my latest limerick:
This Spam’s An Abortion
By Madeleine Begun Kane
A new (to me) flavor of scam
Came by email for gals in a jam.
Yes, a legal cascade
Against Roe versus Wade
Has inspired abortion kit spam.

oh my goodness..home abortion kits…this makes me wanna vomit…sorry..
that is just unbelievable… home abortion kits.. sickening.
ugh gotta love spam…a home kit does not sound like a great idea at all…danger, danger
Spamming a home abortion kit
What an awful pit
As Brian said that is just danger in the making
For anyone partaking
Hopefully people have half a brain
And never ever go down this lane
sad and unbelievable.
The do-it-yourself craze has gone a bit too far.
Oh my!! New to me too! And unimaginably horrid!! But yea, even the most unimaginable things can inspire us at time.. well writ, Madeleine!
Although it gives me fits
Nothing’s new in abortion kits
When girls in a jam
Can’t go on the lam
They use hangers or needles for knits.
I know, morbid, but we’ll be seeing it again if the anti-choice zealots have their way and the high school health clinics and Planned Parenthoods all close.
Loved the limericks by all. Hate the hypocritical Republican party.
Thanks for your comments and verse, everyone. Yes, I still can’t quite believe it. :)
