Not very shocking

Those of us who live in Maryland, next door to Virginia, are used to reading about this sort of thing in the Old Dominion. It's the home of Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell, after all. [And if any Virginians read this and think I'm engaging in a bit of typical Marylander snobbery, I cheerfully plead guilty. Stop making it so easy for us to be snobs re Virginia and we'll stop. That's a promise.]

This was proposed last year in Indiana

State Sen. Pat Miller (R-Indianapolis) proposed similar legislation in Indiana last year. It was withdrawn after news of the bill spread across the internet. Let's hope a similar fate awaits the Virginia bill.

Freaking jackass

Why are some men so obsessed with what women do? Oh no you unmarried lesbian ladies how dare you have a baby! And what is with these religious fucks that think they need to do God's work, well if you believe he smited Sodom and Gomorrah, brings hurricanes to the godless New Orleaners and will strike San Francisco with earthquakes why don't you let him deal with all those nasty homos anyway.

Power hungry controlling assholes. God I'm pissed!
