      There needs to be a fine or something for legislators who write unconstitutional laws. Give ‘em one freebie a year just in case they mess up. But for everything else, there needs to be a consequence to fighting against democracy.

      Last time this came up, the suggestion was for the “poster or framed document that is at least eleven inches by fourteen inches” where “[t]he text of the Ten Commandments shall be the central focus of the poster or framed document and shall be printed in a large, easily readable font” to be printed in Arabic.

      HB 71 also specifies the exact language that must be printed on the classroom displays.

      A clever teacher would have a class project on why such a display is unconstitutional and post students’ responses all around this display.

        I live in New Orleans, the part of the state that isn’t the Bible Belt. If you think you’re sick of the Bible Belt, imagine how we feel when they pass all these dumbfuck, unconstitutional laws and we have to dispose of them like when a cat brings you a dead mouse.

        Aside: one related, if minor annoyance of living here (or South Florida, presumably) is being told I “live in a bubble” when I tell a conservative on social media to fuck off. I am surrounded by the biggest bubble of morons there is. If anything, I’m the prick that’ll pop it if it gets too close.
