I disagree, voting, drinking, cigarettes, marijuana, full licenses, military service [unless in times of war] should be 21.


That would take away an opportunity from lower income young men and women who can’t afford college right out of high school.

During a state of emergency, toll operators will be required to suspend toll collection on designated mass evacuation routes.


Shocked this wasn’t already the case!


It wasn't. Operators were required to double tolls.

“Starting Monday, if you find a crow, feral swine or coyote in your car on your property in Virginia, you’re legally allowed to take it out or shoot it.”

I am now hoping that feral pig dare wander into my yard!


In my car?

High school family life education classes are also now required, rather than allowed, to teach about the law and meaning of sexual consent.

I'm not seeing a problem with teaching students about consent. Seems like a good idea to me.

I am not Catholic, but I think that is a reference to the sacrament of confession.


It's f*cked up that if someone confesses molesting a child during confession, the priest doesn't have to report them. Absolutely screwed up. Pro-life and pro-child my ass.

WTF... That's crazy. Either someone is a mandated reporter or not. There shouldn't be religious exceptions.
