A lawyer in California has submitted a ballot initiative with the state Department of Justice calling for the death of anyone who engages in sodomy in the state, the San Diego Gay & Lesbian News reports.
The proposal by Matt McLaughlin, who lists his address in Huntington Beach, was received by the initiative coordinator at the Office of the Attorney General on Feb. 26. Enclosed was a $200 check and the complete text of his "Sodomite Suppression Act." The act outlines seven measures relating to those who engage in same-sex sodomy, "a monstrous evil that Almighty God, giver of freedom and liberty, commands us to suppress on pain of our utter destruction even as he overthrew Sodom and Gomorrha."
I hope it is a joke.
Ah, lighten up people. It's a joke!
Or rather, we ought to treat it like a joke, whether or not the guy meant it. He's either got shockingly poor taste in jokes, or he's a small minded bigot, and one way or the other deserves ridicule.
Maybe just prevent from reproducing. After all, they claim to be born that way.
If it's a joke, why would someone spend $200 on something so stupidly unfunny?
Rather than a joke, I'd say the more likely situation is he is trying to demonstrate a point about the ballot measure system, or church and state separation, or something along those lines.
Or he actually believes it.
If this is true, then the man needs to be sent to the loony bin for being absolutely and totally insane.

How was Jesse Booth able to vote for both of the first two choices in the poll? :roll:
Any ideas?
