Joke's on him; I never roleplay in the first place, and magical junk-changing pants isn't going to make me start.

...If you're not using that armor, can I borrow it?

That's just ... something I don't even know. I don't think it's a plant or an attempt to draw attention to a cause like a false flag measure either, because he's done similar stuff like this before. The proposed bill makes it illegal to be gay, imposes lengthy prison sentences, exile from California (no really), $1,000,000 fines per occurrence, and that's just for "transmit[ing] sodomite propaganda.... Actually being gay gets you executed, by means of a bullet to the head or other "convenient method." Ordinary citizens would be deputized to execute people they thought were gay via bullet to the head if the state did not prosecute them in 1 year (1 year from what exactly?). He actually paid $200 for this:

It's a lot like the Russian anti gay stuff we've seen lately: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/22/opinion/russias-anti-gay-crackdown.html?_r=0

That's just .... I think WTF sums it up nicely. ???

In California? You'd literally have to nuke San Francisco to enforce that law.

He obviously desperately doesn't wish to be in office anymore.

Oh wait, did he run unopposed?

Having spaghetti in pockets is a figure of speech describing extreme awkwardness occurring during a dialogue, presumably applicable only to male person attempting to interact with female.
It's spaghetti falling out of your pockets. Or it might be spaghetti in the pockets means feeling awkward, then falling out means 'Oh god I cocked up!'

Too religious for my taste, but serve the main dish under whatever sauce you want as long as it's that good.

A woman at the laundromat complained to me about how everyone thinks she works there, when she doesn't.

I thought she worked there. >_<

 That bill amuses me, since it basically says that those who belong to any group that supports and/or is OK with being non-hereosexual (including most churches) is barred from working for the state, or getting public services, or for being part of any California supreme court that rules on it.

Face it man, the sauce is terrible.
They call it the "Sodomy Prevention act" when it in no way prevents me from buttsecksing a woman.
If I had not carefully read that bill, I might've been under the impression that I would receive a bullet in the head for buttsecksing a woman, when I would not. Which isn't just religious but hypocritically religious. Nevermind that the bill prevents all gay non-buttsecksing activities.

IMO, either bullet 85% of America's porn industry, or take all dat religious crap out and just call it the anti-gay act, or if you want to be catchy and hip, the "bullets for f****ts act".
Then everyone knows what the particular governor is about and can vote for/publicly praise/marry/give Nobel prize to him accordingly.

Well, since the act itself has zero moral grounds behind it, whatever gives it more support - religious sauce or absence of it - should be applied.

Just have to say that while I'm perfectly OK with others choosing to be whatever (lgbt) they want, my church does frown heavily on it. I once met an "ex-gay" pastor who was giving talks to youth about choosing to become straight. Yeah, he did seem to be a bit of an odd-ball, but I didn't really care what his choices were and are, since they don't affect me.

But the level of disrespect towards basic humanity that it would require to come up with a bill that allows citizens to commit cold-blooded murder on the street and defend themselves with "He was gay!" (whether or not the victim actually was) is pure evil. And seriously? A million dollar fine for saying you're OK with somebody else living their own lifestyle? What is this, the Old Testament?

Odd, I thought sodomy referred to just male-on-male anal, mainly since that in the Bible the city of Sodom's male population was mostly supposedly gay - actually they tried to do it to an angel, and the city got meteor'd as a result, except for Lot, his wife(who was turned to salt when she turned around to watch the fireworks), and his daughters. Then Lot was date-raped by his daughters. Nobody seems to have noticed the date-rape part, they're too focused on the city of butt-sex.

choosing to be whatever (lgbt)

Observation: there's strong evidence it's genetic.

Okay now, jokes aside, since I'm in another country anyway - both the bill and the religious sauce are terrible because this is a highway to hell and anarchy in one particular state. It's just that if US would be more concerned about some inner problems, that would ease  tenses around, um, other things in the world.

True enough, at least for the first three (lgb), but I doubt the fourth one is entirely genetic (t); there's also evidence that while one person's genes may SAY "you like this gender" they may choose to try and like the other gender; which doesn't always work out for them, but IS a choice.

But if you accept that it's (even partially) genetic, then executing gays because they're genetically gay is even worse, because now it's the same thing as executing blacks because their genetically black. Or midgets because they're genetically midgets. What I'm saying is that this makes the bill into an Ethnic Cleansing Act. Pretty sure that's illegal.
