Dear Louisiana Legislature, et al:

Please stop embarrassing us.
Things are bad enough without this .

In your twisted minds, a woman's vagina is fair game for rape and incest, though being twisted, you rationalize this sickness with a creativity I wish you would apply to something, anything, positive.

Instead: A woman's vagina is fair game for hate.

People will say this is "just politics" and "it'll never happen," but denial does not, in fact, trump reality. For the first time, given, too, the new composure of the Supreme Court, I can feel what it would be like to live in a world with no reproductive rights. Because it's not just abortion, which by now should be beyond obvious and if it's not, please sign up for some electroshock, please, it's birth control: that's next on their hit list. Just look at all the faux-conscientious objectors polluting our pharmacies, alleged medical professionals who play unaware that the pill is also prescribed for health reasons. Ban that and then condoms and voila: it's the 1800s; uncle daddy granddaddy can rape regularly, force women to bear his children, and control female life forever.

Priorities: The government can drag its feet on fixing levees so we don't all die, but isn't too busy to work on devolving us back to a time when sewing one's vagina shut seems a sensible line of defense.

That there's no exception for rape or incest...for female children...the naked hatred of it. And, again, people will say things like, "They're sick; didn't you know?" or "They're trying to distract from the real issues." No. They're declaring war.

And, guys, what if it were your penises being legislated? Because, in a sense, it is - that pesky premarital sex: too risky, 1950! - and, with this crew, I wouldn't be surprised if caps on semen were also institutionalized.

Given the population explosion, this also doesn't make any sense - that every woman who has sex with a man has no way to guard against pregnancy - especially when you factor in global warming and the way it's shrinking down our viable living spaces. Not only is very little being done about pollution and the resulting damage by this administration, they have rolled back so many environmental protections that we are headed to disasters everywhere - that rapture mentality.

Well, guess what, Louisiana Legislature, G.W. administration, Supreme Court, zealots and passive whores to denial: If the rapture entails starving, swimming through polluted, snake- and ant-infested flood waters, drowning, dehydrating, dying - all in the service of your loving savior - congratulations, you've really fixed us good now.
