Per "triggering" comments previously made in this thread, I am not posting the image here, but if you follow the link you will see it and then can go to the full resolution cartoon:

if they get their way, she will not legally be able to have an abortion. It all fits together. The repukes insist on having absolute power over a woman's body.

Oct 2018

A political cartoon by Halifax-based artist Bruce MacKinnon has gone viral in light of the sexual assault allegations against U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh by Dr. Christine Blasey Ford.

The image, which originally ran in the Halifax Chronicle Herald, shows a distressed Lady Justice, on her back with a blindfold over her eyes and her scales scattered behind her. She is pinned down by an apparently male figure wearing Republican cuffs.

One hand covers her mouth while the other holds her wrist.
