So last week, the state House of Representatives was going to pass a resolution designating October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month. No big deal, right? It's not like anybody's going to argue that domestic violence is a good thing.
But apparently state Rep. Darryl Metcalfe, R-Butler, had a problem with it because it promoted a "homosexual agenda." He found this purported agenda in the phrase: "One in six women and one in 33 men have experienced an attempted or completed rape."
Of course, I don't advocate domestic violence in any form. Yet somehow, I can't help hoping that some variation of this scene plays out when Metcalfe goes home to his wife.
This scene was probably entirely legal, because I don't think the Chinese government cares much about domestic violence.
Hey, certain things should be legal simply by virtue of their sheer awesomeness.
