Be glad that no matter what state you live in, as long as you don't live in Alabama, you are not in the worst state in the United States. CONGRATULATIONS!

You had to go and say it. Countdown is on for Missouri to "Hold my beer".

OMFG, this. Jayzus.

Louisiana is at least as bad in different ways. Mississippi probably is too. And it's not like any other state in the damn Union is free of completely fucked up issues that need to be resolved.

It's not that you're wrong. I just refuse to crow about being less than maximally shitty.

Did something happen recently to prompt this, or is Alabama just simply Alabama? (I still get it, if so)

Alabama Republican senatorial candidate Roy Moore is in hot water for what is apparently a long and well-attested history of hitting on teenage girls. Despite this, he still has the support of Alabama Republicans, who are defending his conduct. He appears to still be competitive in the race, and I think most observers would probably consider him the favorite to win it.

He also is just an enormous piece of shit in many other ways, this is just the most recent one.

One supporter's rationalization.

"Take the Bible: Zachariah and Elizabeth for instance," Zeigler said. "Zachariah was extremely old to marry Elizabeth and they became the parents of John the Baptist. Also take Joseph and Mary. Mary was a teenager and Joseph was an adult carpenter. They became parents of Jesus. There's just nothing immoral or illegal here. Maybe just a little bit unusual."

Really not an uncommon attitude within particular veins of American Christianity.

We have a ton of child brides in this country, not just in Alabama, and they're almost all in conservative and/or evangelical Christian communities.

They conveniently overlook the fact that Roy Moore didn't marry those girls, he fornicated with them. But you know, typical Xtian garbage follows same.

It not like they're going to get caught and get life sentences. Man, why some people like going after 'weird' stuff?

I looked at his wife's FB for a minute - asshat 'supporters' going on about how 'liberals' need to make him look 'like the worst' in order to win, and 'we support Moore all the way!!'

Sick fucks.

Except the whole point of Jesus is that he's not supposed to be the product of Mary and Joseph having sex? You want to marry a single, pregnant teen and support her and raise the baby, fine, but no one's accused Moore of doing that!

It’s illegal to buy a vibrator in Alabama.

My state's got Steve King, who's about as equally dumb as Moore is. To the point where, if some scandal comes out about him, I will not be even remotely surprised. So i can sympathize with what the people in Alabama who can't stand Moore are going through to some degree.

But yeah. Really hoping that state can get itself together and kick that asshole out once and for all.

I do want to point out that Steve King isn't just dumb. He's a white supremacist, or the literal closest thing to it.

AYRT

You are correct. Make that "asshole" instead of "dumb". The sooner he can leave office, the better for everyone.

Tell me about it. He's apparently untouchable, too.

Tennessee ain't that great either dude.

I grew up in Alabama, and you ain't lying. It's a shithole filled with willfully ignorant hicks. Roy Moore had the 10 commandments up in his court room because he's such a good Xtian, so he'll win the election because all those women are lying whores trying to destroy a decent man of god, doncha know. So fuck Alabama, and fuck every moronic rube who voted for that pedo piece of shit.

meh. North Carolina is just mediocre bad. Like bad enough to be a bitch to live in when you're disabled but not like known for it.

Eh, I live in NW Florida, which is often "affectionately" referred to as Lower Alabama, so I don't really feel like I have much room to gloat. Glass houses and all that.

Actually, now that I'm looking at the news, the local Kansas scandal is doing a pretty good job of showing up Alabama.

Secrecy inside child welfare system can kill: 'God help the children of Kansas'

"Clint Blansett’s 10-year-old son had been dead just a few days when a social worker from the state knocked on the family’s door in south-central Kansas.

She wasn’t there to offer condolences after Caleb’s death or ask about his sister, Blansett said.

She wanted him to sign a form saying he wouldn’t talk about his son’s death or the Kansas Department for Children and Families. No details about contact the agency had with the family before Caleb’s mom smashed his head with a rock while he slept and then stabbed him seven times.

“It was a gag order,” Blansett said. “She was there for DCF; she wasn’t there for me, she wasn’t there for my daughter. She was there to ensure that I wouldn’t speak to the press. That was her only concern.”

What Caleb’s father faced that day in December 2014 is what other parents and Kansas legislators say they’ve battled for years: An agency charged with protecting kids instead focused on protecting itself. An agency where a former high-level DCF supervisor told The Star she was instructed not to document anything after a child’s death and to shred notes after meetings so attorneys and reporters couldn’t get them through open records requests.

An agency where even lawmakers insist DCF officials are intentionally misleading them and providing information the Legislature can’t trust.

In the end, Kansas children continue to die without a public review of what contact state social workers had with the families — whether they did enough and whether policies and procedures were followed."

...and on it goes.

So.

JFC...
