#1 - I have a new Nephew. My cousin gave birth to Charles Jay Hogg this afternoon via C-Section :) (^_^) Welcome to the world, baby C.J.!

#2 - I will never watch anything that relate's to World War II again so long as I live. Never. Again. DAMN US HISTORY FROM 1876!! DAMNIT TO THE BLOODY PITS OF MY MIND!!

#3 - We had an absolutely rad discussion about censorship today in Sociology :) Woot. We got into how everything from banning abortion to the refusal of giving a woman her birth control prescription is censorship and that the question is "Where do you draw the line between too much censorship and not enough?"

I, personally, think censorship is a really, really bad thing. Now, I understand censoring the KKK from lynching people, but telling the klan that they can't have their monthly meetings to sit and bash people is absurd, that's like saying I shouldn't be able to walk down the street holding hands with someone of the same sex.

In my opinion, though, the absolute epitome of disgusting censorship at the moment is South Dakota. What in the HELL is wrong with their governor? Or, better yet, Senator Bill Napoli.

If I were a citizen of South Dakota, I would be denied an abortion if I became pregnant via rape. Why? Because I wasn't a virgin before the rape.

This son of a bitch thinks that a woman would need to be "brutally raped, savaged. The girl was a virgin. She was religous. She planned on saving her virginity until she was married. She was brutalized and raped, sodomized as bad as you can possibly make it, and is impregnated. I mean, that girl could be so messed up, physically and psychologically, that carrying the child could verywell threaten her life."

......how ridiculous is that? "Brutally" raped? Rape is brutal, whether you're beaten to hell and back or just held down and made to spread your legs, rape is brutal. It is traumatizing beyond all fathomable concept.

Religion. I have to have religion to be allowed to choose whether or not I bear the child of a man who took me against my will. What religion? Would a Wiccan Witch be considered religous by Asswipe McDickhead's standards?

I have to be a virgin. Hrm, let's think about this for a minute. So simply because I've chosen to make love to a man before....or a woman for that matter (depends on how this fuck defines virgin)....if someone takes me against my will, it is my responsibility to bear his child, simply because I've had consensual sex before?

What if I'm married? Hrmm? What if I'm not a virgin then, but I waited until marriage to give myself to my husband?

It amazes me just how stupid humanity can be. I mean, holy shit, this one just blew me away.

All I can say is: If this is going to become the national standard by which a woman must follow to have an abortion, then hot damn, VIVA LA CANADA!!!!
