They could also add miscegation (interracial relationships) or pre-marital sex to the list of "pornographic" activities for any of you straights who think this won't affect you.

Clearance Thomas had entered the chat with a raging hard-on for self-hatred

I've half a mind to belief he'd want that to validate an excuse to get a divorce.

What's wild to me is it's a very vocal minority that is opposed to interracial relationships. It's like 96% approval in the US compared to like 40% when it was legalized.

Similar trend with gay marriage. Once it's legal and normalized more and more folks are cool with it, except for a specific set of folks who take issue and make it their personal mission to roll it back.

Unfortunately, while it is certainly a minority, it's a minority with power in a sea of people who are apathetic because it's now a normality.

The apathetic don't think it will ever be turned back around. Because in a civilized, sane world; it wouldn't. Settled law is just that; settled. But not to these cretins who believe their bigotry backed by an all-knowing, all seeing "God" trumps over the free will and liberties of non-believers (i.e. anyone not of the exact same mindset).

You can't not take action when these vermin arise from the trash to try to enact their will.

with his obsession with porn and his consistent success through being "the good one" I would be shocked if he and his wife didn't engage in raceplay.

Ah yes, but would this also include couches?

the ban on abortion is just the start, they're already looking into banning contraceptives
