Aborting Indiana

Generally speaking, I don't like a lot of people. I'm evil, and I find the world is populated with a lot of needless morons and people with bad fashion sense who mistake ugly for style.

But that said, and all evilness aside, I'm of the general belief that people, no matter how stupid, should be able to do what they like, so long as it doesn't result in the deaths of others, or damage to children, puppy dogs and great works of literature.

Apparently, the great minds of the Indiana legislature don't agree with me on this.

Having unquestionably perfected the state's educational, criminal and economic systems, the elected representatives of the Hoosier State have now turned to making sure that everybody is not gay -- or really uncomfortable if they are -- and in love with jesus, and, of course, paired up like monkeys on the arc.

State lawmakers recently proposed a law that would prevent unmarried people, single parents, same sex couples and pretty much any combination that doesn't include a marriage certificate, from using science to make babies when they can't do it on their own.

And those couples looking to be exempted from the law would have to undergo a review that would consider the family lifestyle, including whether they worship the jesus or other overbearing. No indication on whether straight folks who still like ass-fucking would be excluded, too.

Update: State Sen. Patricia Miller, rendering the use of her single active brain cell, has decided to withdraw her proposal, acknowledging the issue might be more complex than she'd considered.
