And you thought the Irish political system was flawed…
If the Attorney General of Virginia, Ken Cuccinelli II (pictured above), has his way and gets elected as the Governor of the Virginia he’s going to try and make blowjobs and buttsex illegal in state… again.
Blowjobs and buttsex are technically illegal in the state of Virginia but the law isn’t enforced as The Supreme Court already declared their anti-blowjob/buttsex laws unconstitutional back in 2003.
Here’s a look at what
the crazy law in question states:
Crimes against nature; penalty.
- If any person carnally knows in any manner any brute animal, or carnally knows any male or female person by the anus or by or with the mouth, or voluntarily submits to such carnal knowledge, he or she shall be guilty of a Class 6 felony, except as provided in subsection B.
Cuccinelli has even launched a website (called
VAchildpredators.com) promoting the state's law banning what he calls ‘crimes against nature’. However, the Attorney General is arguing that the anti-sodomy law he’s defending is actually an "anti-child predators law".
Erin Gloria Ryan writes, “Protecting The Children is a noble cause, certainly — only Cucinelli isn't trying to protect The Children at all… Cuccinelli told a newspaper that he believes it should be okay for the state to regulate the sexual behaviour of grown ass adults, because homosexual acts are inherently wrong”.
Times might be tough in Ireland, but just remember it could always be worse.
