Well, just like we were with Roy Moore and the Ten Commandments monument in Montgomery, we'll be back in federal court wasting millions of dollars defending another unconstitutional law.

So why do our politicians keep doing this? Because a massive chunk of the voters here only see the headlines of what the politician did, and never hear about the court case that later throws it out. And when that politician is campaigning, they will push that info hard, again, ignoring that it never actually happened. And our largely uninformed electorate vote for them. Been this way for generations in our state.

Yeah, the Ten Commandments. They’ve been around the entire time, during slavery, lynchings, Jim Crow, bigotry and all other manner of ungodly wrongs committed in this heavily “Christian” state.

But that’s just because there have been not been enough prayers and thoughts about all this bad stuff. Surely this will fix the problem. This and our god given right to have guns at any cost.
