And for every person that whines about ‘leaving things up to the states’ when it comes to all kinds of random bullshit….my post below this one is a damn good example of why that’s really an awful idea.

Ok, if you live in a state that wouldn’t force girls in public schools to take pregnancy tests to go to class, or a state that doesn’t go out of its way to nullify a non-discrimination law (I’m glaring at you, Tennesse), I’m happy for you & all, & I’mma let you finish, but the really ignorant states have the most fucked up laws of all time. All. Time.

And they just go on about their day like NBD. 

(You don’t even want to hear my stories about having to pull out federal VAWA laws in states that wanted to argue that their state didn’t have to honor my protective order because my state doesn’t do things the same way. I’m tired of having to do that, but states like South fucking Dakota (among others) won’t do anything AT ALL to help me until I get all federal on their asses. Motherfuckers, I carry around the federal statute for a reason, & it’s because states can’t get their shit together long enough for me to accomplish anything.)
