Texas Bans Buttsex and Blowjobs

Link to news

The Texas Republican Party gives a whole new meaning to the word conservative.

The GOP there has voted on a platform that would ban oral and anal sex. It also would give jail sentences to anyone who issues a marriage license to a same-sex couple (even though such licenses are already invalid in the state).

“We oppose the legalization of sodomy,” the platform says. “We demand that Congress exercise its authority granted by the U.S. Constitution to withhold jurisdiction from the federal courts from cases involving sodomy.”

The Lone Star state initially passed a law barring sodomy in 1860. Violators faced anywhere from five to 15 years in prison. The ban was overturned in 2003.

In addition, the platform says that homosexuality “tears at the fabric of society, contributes to the breakdown of the family unit and leads to the spread of dangerous communicable diseases.”

It also states that homosexuality must not be presented as an acceptable “alternative” lifestyle in public schools and “family” should not be redefined to include homosexual couples.

The 25-page proposal, presented last week as a guide for the state GOP over the next two years, includes other measures including outlawing “sexually oriented businesses” like strip clubs and banning “all pornography.”

Sometimes I don't know whose worse, alaska or texas. Who the fk am I kidding loltexas

Hahahaha. It's so nice to know they want to destroy themselves politically.

The Republican Party: Going off the deep end one state at a time.

I'm also enjoying the complete lack of disregard for Supreme Court rulings on this very issue.

Oh, wow, these guys are completely brainless. I bet they are slugs typing random words that made sense all this time by pure luck.

It sure would be nice if Republicans were still about small government and not shit like this.

Thank you Texas, showing other states how it should be. Praise God for giving the state of Texas such wonderfully smart people that the ignorant masses will never understand their genius and think they're stupid, yet they're the stupid ones!

(Being 100% serious by the way)
