Everyone's heard about Rhea County, I suspect. And a lot of you have responded, deeply offended.

Me? I think this is a great idea.

They want to outlaw homosexuality?
They want to celebrate the Scopes Trial?

I say, let them.

Let them outlaw homosexuality, mixed marriages, the teaching of evolution, and anything else they please.

When Rhea County has a population explosion of people who move there because of all that "moral legislation", we can slap a fence around it and declare it the Backwards Primitive Asshole Reservation. All the fundamentalists, homophobes, and creationists can live there while the rest of us Just Get On With It.
