The Town Scryer is a mixed bag of humor, socio-political observations and ephemera from the perspective of a eclectic Pagan veteran of the counter-culture.

Something Went Horribly Wrong

  (simultaneously posted at my live journal)

    A young woman went in the hospital for a "routine gynecological procedure". She was supposed to be out the same day. Instead she lost both her legs.

     Just reading the story is enough to enrage. Then you start reading the comments by all the racists and the right-wing trolls and the self-declared   "Christians" who assume the procedure was an abortion although there is no indication of such at all, and spew pious venom about "God's justice". The Christ that I was taught about would smite these people with a flaming 2X4.


     The anonymity of the internet has turned over some rocks in the collective national psyche. It is unpleasant to behold that which has scuttled out from that dark moist place.
