(16,844 posts)Do you trust Mississippians to remain sober enough to drive from the bar and back to the house? The state doesn't need to put restrictions on people, they should just let people police themselves, right? Let me take your paycheck to the casino, Tate. What, you don't trust me to double your money? And what is it with these laws against nudity and bestiality? Don't you say anything about me fucking the dog on my front lawn! I don't say anything about you fucking your pigs, Tate.
