The southern belt of America, where people lap up Trump’s hateful rhetoric under the banner of good Christian values.
Take Mississippi for example, who just passed perhaps the most anti-gay law in America. This one may have slipped you by, so to catch up to speed I’ll enlist the help of Huffington Post:
The far-reaching law allows people with religious objections to deny wedding services to same-sex couples. It also clears the way for employers to cite religion in determining workplace policies on dress code, grooming and bathroom and locker access.
Bryant, a Republican, said in a statement that he signed the law “to protect sincerely held religious beliefs and moral convictions of individuals, organizations and private associations from discriminatory action by state government.”
The law has further reaching implications than those cited above, but you came here for a laugh so let’s stick with that. The folks at Funny or Die don’t allow embedding of their videos, so click that image below and watch it on YouTube.
Finally an oppressive law to match their oppressive heat – thanks but no thanks Mississippi, y’all can crawl back under the rock you came from.
