like that who is so much of a zealot that she's willing to go to jail to keep people from having civil rights has probably already done some nasty stuff to citizens in that area. That's the way it works in a lot of small towns in the south. It's the way things go in my hometown. It's a shitty place to be. You can forget equal rights in these areas. They will find ways to deny you basic rights here.
