I was wondering why my post with the 10 dead baby jokes got deleted? I worked really hard for about 15 seconds to find those jokes on google and post them in this most appropriate of threads. Maybe it's because most of the jokes were not about actually killing babies, but about babies that were already dead, or would die only if a particular action were to take place. I think I get it, now.
There were a couple of complaints about it so it was temporarily pulled so staff could decide it there was anything wrong with it. We talked, not seeing a problem, so it's undeleted.
It's a poorly written but obvious attempt to shield accused/suspected murderers from even being investigated let alone prosecuted, and will never survive it's first appeal to the SCOTUS due to the obvious inequality of treatment for a particular class. To deny it's clear intent by claiming "pay no attention to the wording, that's not what it's intended to do" is pathetically disingenuous, just like the heinous hack attorneys who were paid to write it.
What bill was this? And how did you manage to get such specific demographics on who voted against it? I’ve never seen the “pro baby pro life family” listed as a voting block. As far as I can tell, one of the only times you see Democrat and Republican politicians working together is when it’s denying Americans healthcare. Making sure we are all sick and dying is pretty non-partisan as far as politicians are concerned.

I don't think they were funny. I also don't see a need to censor them but I'm glad they at least discussed it. Mods trying to do the right thing is all we can ask.
