Yes. As long as it saves corporations a few bucks, who cares about the rest of the plebes… If they didn’t want to live in a poisoned post-apacalyptic hellscape, they’d be rich, right? What are they doing with those fucking bootstraps the corporations so helpfully offered them at a 100% markup?

@doctorow, so when are you going to issue a correction?
Mississippi didn’t ratify the 13th Amendment until 1995. Apparently they screwed that up, and didn’t officially abolish slavery at the state level until 3 years ago (i.e. the 21st century).

Careful, it’s liable to come back, much like the idea of not electing our Senators.
You almost—almost—made me Urban Dictionary “harmonica style.”

Or at least awful busy.
The bill included a bit about sodomy between people. 4 words slipped into the bill to totally change the meaning and intent. The senator is full of shit. The words were put there in order to placate an anti-gay voting base with a token gesture. If he was sincere about the anti-animal cruelty bill they would have never bothered with such language in the first place.

Sure, let’s have laws against vanilla sex acts. That’s enforceable.
In the meantime, people continue to take their fingers and jam them into their nostrils! They’ll even dig around in there and…well decency forbids me to describe what they may extract. Some of those kind of people also take delight in smearing the fruits of their penetration about, making us all unwilling participants.
Do I need to point out that when I go to the supermarket, they’re selling actual tissues right out there in front of everyone? This brazen debauchery goes on directly in front of children! Don’t tell me the children aren’t following the example of these purveyors of filth who spray their bodily fluids noisily in public spaces. We need MORE laws to keep people’s body parts away from the other parts and we need them now.

The Finnish ruling does seem particularly humane (there was something about not harming animals too).

I don’t know man, that might come too close to outlawing sex with inanimate objects, and we may not want to go there. I mean, we don’t want to end up prohibiting dildos or sex dolls through some stupid-but-all-too-typical political thing, and state senators and dildos are so close that you could totally see that happening.

Wow, dog-fucking in Michigan must be downright rampant to give this issue such urgency that it had to be pushed through as quickly as possible, with side effects like this seen as comparatively trivial.

What side effects? What the hell are you talking about? That text that has been on the books since 1931. If this bill is to blame for not removing that language, then so is every other bill passed in Michigan.
READ THE FUCKING ARTICLE.
Better yet, maybe Snopes will make it understandable:
WHAT’S TRUE:
** The Michigan senate amended a portion of the state penal code dealing **
**with animal cruelty without removing old, unenforceable language that **
criminalizes sodomy.
**WHAT’S FALSE: **
Michigan has passed a new law banning oral and anal sex.
Seriously, it’s one thing to rail about idiotic, unenforceable laws still on state books. Yeah. They suck. It’s another one to trash a legislator who’s fucking trying to pass a law to make it easier to jail people who pour acid on dogs because you can’t be bothered to read the fucking article.

You seriously, seriously, have no fucking clue what you are talking about. The sodomy laws are from 1931. They were already on the books. The supreme court has already rendered such laws unconstitutional anyway. Nothing in the Logan bill changed that.
The senator is backing a bill to layout strong penalties for animal torturers, and you can’t be bothered to read past the click bait headlines. Here we have a senator should be getting applauded, but you call him full of shit.
He’s not the one who’s full of shit.

Why did Belfast Presbyterians disallow sex standing up?
Because it might lead to dancing.

Way to weaselword here.
Michigan has passed a new law banning oral and anal sex. Emphasis on “new” law. Yes they had old laws on the books. But considering old laws on the books are deemed unconstitutional, they have no business putting new ones forward which do so.
If the intention of various state senate was to further penalize animal cruelty, then they had no business putting in the 4 words which criminalize sodomy among humans. This is simply a matter of conservative politicians trying to make a token gesture to placate their anti-gay voting base and pissing on an animal cruelty bill at the same time.
One has to bear in mind that social conservatism is a big scam to use bigotry as a tool to inspire poor and working class to vote against their economic interests. No part of the social conservative agenda has a chance in hell of national level acceptance but it allows people to rally people and raise money for something intelligent politicians know nothing can be done about.
