I'm a 66, near 67 , year old white woman, who has endured more crap than just about any white man I know. Meanwhile, it isn't just white men, but it's evangelicals, Republican apologists, tea baggers ,misogynists, racists, homophobes, sexists, both men and women... the list goes on...

They better just mind their p's and q's and stay outta my face.

Reminds me of the movie Network -"we're mad as hell, and we're not going to take it anymore."

Really rankles me that women, POC, LGBT, the disabled, etc...have had to take crap for years......,let's end it.
