An international student told us that she and brothers grew up near some kind of penal institution. When her brothers were very bad, their mom would put everyone in the car, drive to the front of the institution, and with a brief explanation push the miscreant out and pretend to drive away. Then she would slow down and allow the panicked and remorseful child back into the car. Now that's a threat.

<i>“As Heyburn declares that the Commonwealth must recognize gay marriages performed in other states, the Constitution of Kentucky is being undermined. This decision moves us down the slippery slope toward launching Kentucky into moral chaos...</i>

And also that wall, of course. And the scramblers that block TV, radio, and Internet signals from outside.

It helps that Michael Sam is from Lubbock TX and plays for Missouri. Because people get enlightened when their homey gets famous.

If he had been from Chicago or Detroit or Pittsburgh I expect the Good Ol Boys would be howling much louder.
