Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Now I'm not telling anyone to do anything... but nobody has ever had a baby by pounding your best bro in the ass while you stroke him off. Same with your gal pals. Make it a competitive event! Learn new things and create memories you can cherish for a lifetime as you scream louder and louder with every shaking orgasm, in sync with the boys.
Just something to think about the next time you get frisky.
(tomorrow's headline: "popularity of gay sex spikes 9700% overnight thanks to republicans")
It's actually vasectomies which have spiked in popularity — congress can't take that away once you've had one.
I mean…
If the government can take away the right to basic reproductive healthcare for half the population, there’s no reason they couldn’t do it for the other half. They likely wouldn’t, because the right wingers obviously believe men deserve more rights than women, but let’s not underestimate the government’s capacity for making terrible policy in furtherance of some fantastical pseudo-purity culture that only exists in their minds.
Oh, I see your edit now. You meant they can’t take it away after they’ve already had one. True that.
Yet.

It's not even about having babies. It's about control in general. Louisiana just passed physical castration as a punishment. Yes it is for one of the worst most disgusting things a person can do to another living being, but it leaves no path for redemption, it is irreversible, it is cruel and unusual, and it is about control. They'll literally cut your balls off in Louisiana for molesting children.
I think you're defending the wrong side. if you're molesting kids, fuck your balls, you're lucky to be alive at that point.
Republicans are conflating pedophilia with being gay and making baseless accusations of pedophilia aimed at Democrats.
If avoiding cruel and unusual punishment is the price is self-defense, then so be it.
False convictions happen all the time.
To be clear: they are penalizing “pedos” while simultaneously allowing (encouraging?) 13-year olds to get married. This is not about pedophilia but about gays.
What part of my comment was defending child molesters? My point is that legalizing physical castration as a punishment for any crime at all, they have set the bar for what is considered cruel and unusual punishment below mutilation. Since our legal system is based on precedent, that means other forms of mutilation as punishment are now on the table in the courts.
Also, the absolutely are women child molesters. You can't physically cut a biological woman's balls off. The punishment targets men specifically and does nothing to actually stop molestation in the future. Also, Louisiana has the highest rate of false guilty verdicts in the country and they are the ones cutting men's balls off... Just saying.

Great idea.
Treat the guys to a fat knot this weekend, they'll keep coming back for more. ;p
