Michigan Is Too Busy Trying to Outlaw Anal Sex to Address Toxic Flint Water
Seeing as Flint is an issue in the primary, and that today Hillary rightly said that what is happening there is immoral, thought I'd post this piece illustrating precisely what repuke morals and values look like.
Who has time for water that cannot pass a quality test when you can legislate the love that dare not speak its name?
The Michigan Senate recently passed a bill that outlawed sodomy, traditionally defined in legalese as either oral or anal sex. If the bill passes the Michigan House, sodomy could be punishable by up to 15 years in prison.
The ban was attached to an anti-bestiality bill, part of a package of bills called "Logan's Law" the state Senate is looking to pass to protect pets from abusive owners. By adding the words "with mankind" to a clause outlawing bestiality it not only outlawed sodomy and bestiality, but equated the two.
Michigan joins about a dozen other states that have sodomy bans on their books, even though the Supreme Court declared them unconstitutional in a 6-3 vote in the 2003 Supreme Court case Lawrence v. Texas. That case started with the 1998 arrest of two gay men who were having consensual sex in their private apartment; the case eventually made its way to the Supreme Court.
