The bill which goes into effect in July, allows #privateproperty owners to #shoot first and questions later if they believe that a trespasser or homeless person is going to commit a #felony or is attempting to “deposses” them.
The set of #toughoncrime laws also #criminalizes being homeless.
I'm headed to Indiana. If the weather cooperates, I will have a nice fishing week. Will hit Turkey Run Park outside of Louisville either tomorrow evening or Sunday morning. On Monday, I hope to go to Turkey Run State Park in western Indiana. Yes they have the same name; it's a coincidence. I'll work in Indiana all week where I will have access to the White River. I don't yet have a plan for the following weekend. I'm taking a tent, so Daniel Boone National Forest will be on the table. If I am impressed by Turkey Run State Park, I may go back there. If you've got some opinions about theae areas and fishing, I would love to hear them.
For this week's #ThursDeath, a one-song slab of death I can't stop listening to from Kentucky's CELL INTRUDER. They just released this "Rapid Detorsoing" demo in January and it RIPS. Psyched to see what else these guys do.
@Kitty@HailsandAles@wendigo@BlackenedGreen 'a typical Jake track' 😂 definitely. Also, any art like that, like, black and white in some kind of dank dungeon or something, yeah, I'm gonna probably be there 🔥
Emboldened by the fascist Ky GOP imposing their religious beliefs on women and LGBTQ folks, now magats are harassing businesses of people who follow different spiritual paths.
This was never going to end with abortion and trans people - you know that, right?
They intend to eliminate anyone and everyone who will not bow to their disgusting cult. Today it's crystals and nature religions. Tomorrow it's Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism, Sufis, and Judaism.
These nutjobs don't care about constitutional rights and are fine with using police state violence to enforce their cult's backward and barbaric beliefs. And if that doesn't work, they're fine with murder, arson, and assault.

This all seems a bit nutty, a bit of a one-off. Until, suddenly, it’s not. The momentum behind things like this is growing, and growing fast.
I would not be surprised (sadly) if the next push of the Overton window introduces overt, mandatory, public displays of fealty, like the Hitler greeting (“Sieg heil!”) in post-Weimar Germany. And severe penalties for anyone who doesn’t toe the line.
Red states like Ky are planning to eliminate income taxes to move to an entirely sales tax system. They plan to tax all goods & services, so presumably your doctor, home care, your bookkeeper, and your contract labor will all have to charge you sales tax on top of their regular co-pays & fees.
Of course, that means the brunt of all taxes will be paid by the low wage working poor, and the rich will not be affected - nor pay any tax on their income. Small biz is screwed.
Of course, this being the GOP in Kentucky, they will no doubt slap sales taxes on Food & Medicine, too, just to make sure they hurt the poor as much as possible.
B/c that's what right wing christians do - hurt the poor, disabled, elderly by depriving them of food, med care, affordable housing, and then criminalizing homelessness for good measure. In the name of their evil god.

Calling him an idiot ignores the reality that he and his party are undermining American from within. They are fifth columnists, as cunning as they are depraved #AllRepublicansAreTraitors
@thepoliticalcat@chrisU@DemocracyMattersALot
They do what they're told to please Trump and their big donors. That does not mean they're not dangerous or a fifth column out to break the system.
Think you can file an ethics compliant against a Ky legislator who is taking bribes and enacting biased bills? Well, you can file one, but they'll just chuck it into File 13.
(That's the trash can, for you youngsters out there.)
Anybody want to bet on which social services get cut to pay for this new #Kentucky bill? I'm willing to bet housing funds is one of them. This is just a way for the Ky GOP to line their private prison buddy's pockets, without addressing any actual societal need leading to homelessness.
Because, of course, the poor deserve to be punished for being poor. Their evil god hates the poor. And so do they.
