Invasive Personhood Amendment
Holly Austin is spearheading a movement to get an invasive personhood amendment on the Arkansas Ballot.  If the ballot passes, it would make my vagina and uterus a potential crime scene that needed to be investigated after a miscarriage.   I don’t think Holly Austin should be able to know what is inside of my vagina or uterus, and the government should have even less to do with it unless I...

Blue Laws
During the holiday break, I went to MacAdoodles on the Missouri State Line.  I felt like it was a little piece of heaven on earth.  God may hate Arkansas, but I’m pretty sure he vacations in Missouri. In so many ways, Missouri seems like a fine state, but mostly because of their low taxes and lack of blue laws.  They sell regular wine at Walmart outside of Arkansas.  Why can’t we do...
