Well...what were expecting...it is Virginia.
That's exactly what I was thinking when I read this case John, "Well, it is Virginia"
damnit, 2 people beat me to it. i was going to say the key is right in the case name.
i lived in virginia for 3 years. everything you've heard is true. some beautiful regions though, good for outdoors stuff.
I live in a comparably rural state, and my thought is still... "EW!"
Thank god the times have changed. Just not in Kentucky. :)
What? You got a problem with interracial love?
;)
Well, no one cares if there's an 11-year-old getting banged. Just not if the 11-year-old is a different race than the one banging her. Then, that's a WHOLE different story.
why the hell are you reading a treatise on loving v. virginia!?
secret gunner?
