What can we learn from the cancellation of the prom at Constance McMillen’s Mississippi high school?
Constance rules!
This is why Congress has to pass the Student Non-Discrimination Act
Hope isn’t lost -- look how many folks stepped up to hold a non-discriminatory prom!

Alabama continues its War on Dildos

Rating:

The Alabama Supreme Court has just reaffirmed its position that citizens may not buy and sell weapons of mass distruction within the state borders.

Automatic weapons? No.

Dildos.

The Alabama Supreme Court on Friday upheld the state’s ban on the sale of sex toys, but Love Stuff, the Hoover store that filed the challenge, has no plans to stop selling the devices.

While people have the right to use the devices in private, the Legislature has the right to ban public distribution of those products, the court majority ruled in a 7-2 decision.

..."Public morality can still serve as a legitimate rational basis for regulating commercial activity, which is not a private activity,” Associate Justice Michael F. Bolin wrote in the majority opinion.

..."As the 11th Circuit pithily and somewhat coarsely stated: `There is nothing `private’ or `consensual’ about the advertising and sale of a dildo,’” the majority opinion said.
That's right ladies... female orgasms are BAD BAD BAD unless your happily married husband is giving you one. Why, if you could get off without us, we'd have anarchy, I say!

Insanity.

 How are dildos dangerous?

I mean with proper use they can provide minutes to hours of enjoyment and even self realization...

Craziness.

Wow. Unbelievable. I don't get how a state's Supreme Court can actually rule against dildos. Does the court have any women on it? There's noting scary or threatening about them! Thank goodness I don't live in Alabama. Is there anything we can do about this?
