But skin-head nazis aren’t a protected class in any jurisdiction.

Same! My aunt is a vile racist and homophobe and currently on husband no 3 and she stole a bunch of money and jewellery from husband no 2's family. But two consenting adult men banging? The horror!

Yup. Opening a Religious Belief Exemption to anti-discrimination laws would basically eliminate them altogether. If it’s legal to refuse service to LGBT individuals on religious grounds then it’s legal to refuse service to black people on religious grounds.

Exactly. You can’t refuse to bake a wedding cake for two dudes. You CAN refuse to adorn it with two big veiny dicks touching in the center.

The most openly homophobic person I know is in the process of ending her fourth marriage.

Marriage is sacred, y’all.

It’s fairly rare for female murders to be put to death. On top of that she is White and was in a respectable profession.

Probably? Women are 1.1% of all executions in the country since 1976 and make up a very slightly larger 1.7% of all current inmates on death row.

She was convicted in 1984, only a few years after Texas reinstated its death penalty. It wasn’t quite as bloodthirsty during that time. Plus she’s white and, probably more importantly, a woman. Plus, the crimes didn’t tap into current cultural fears (sex and drugs) like Karla Faye Tucker’s did.

Ugh. I wish I could posit an alternate reason, but I’m sure you’re correct.

Selective death penalty I guess?!?

She’s not even a fetus anymore.

Texas is the one that argued that actual innocence isn’t an obstacle to executing someone.

She doesn’t look Black or Latino.

I KNOW like come on Texas you had one job how is this woman not on death row.

She white

60

Yeah, I’ve been trying to prepare myself for the worst possible outcome :-(

I think we need to turn this into a “Watching the Ossoff Results Come In Therapy Thread.”

They are still the best for underwear, hands down. And I love that they aren’t heavily retouching their models now.

“But if that change meant that more women would spend money on clothes that fit them without having to revert to online shopping, maybe that would be enough to save American retail as we know it from its protracted death.”
