This Person Votes Story, (With a Twist)

The Agitator linked to this article, which is a classic. We all see those clips or articles where people come up with silly answers to sometimes even sillier questions, which is followed up by a comment along the lines of, “and this person votes!”

In this one the same thing could be said, but this time it is a Florida state Senator who is even sillier than those people on the clips.

For the Love of God, Nobody Mention To Her That 

Wednesday is Humpday.

Via Jonathan Turley, I encountered the elsewhere-freakish but Florida-mundane story of state senator Larcenia Bullard (D-Miami, via deep space). Bullard became agitated during a Florida legislative debate over a bestiality law. Florida does not have a current bestiality law, apparently. ….

Anyway, Bullard became agitated when someone used the term “animal husbandry”:

Rich’s legislation would target only those who derived or helped others derive ‘’sexual gratification” from an animal, specifying that conventional dog-judging contests and animal-husbandry practices are permissible.

That last provision tripped up Miami Democratic Sen. Larcenia Bullard.

”People are taking these animals as their husbands? What’s husbandry?” she asked. Some senators stifled their laughter as Sen. Charlie Dean, an Inverness Republican, explained that husbandry is raising and caring for animals. Bullard didn’t get it.

”So that maybe was the reason the lady was so upset about that monkey?” Bullard asked, referring to a Connecticut case where a woman’s suburban chimpanzee went mad and was shot. ……

The article ends with an editorial comment: “Cappy, a commenter over at The Agitator, points out that Bullard is the Vice-Chair of the Agricultural Committee and a former teacher. That makes this even more awesome.”
