But I thought red states were bastions of freedom?

What better way to oppress women than by making it illegal to not have your child with you.

Women better get ready to be accosted by police asking where their child is - and if you don't have one you'll be entered into the police lottery where everyone at the station gets a chance bestow a child upon you before you can leave.

Was a woman officer who initiated this.

Are you referring to the sheriff, or the lady who called 911 for seemingly no reason. Honestly, if that lady was a local, I'd probably want to keep an eye on her cuz she probably calls in every little thing trying to get people in trouble. Had a neighbor like that.

Once I moved to a blue city in a blue state, I realized how much freedom I actually have now. Being able to walk to bars/breweries and not be car dependent, but still have the option if I need it, being able to take my dog into restaurants as long as she’s well behaved, being able to lay in the park in the summer while drinking a beer or being high, hiking on substances… the list goes on.

If you bury your head deep enough into propaganda to not see reality, they are!
