Thanks for the update! That bill was truly ridiculous.

No problem. Being from Indiana, I'm very glad to see Miller back down.

Yeah, same here. I'm from Indy too and my mom's side of the family still lives there (so I visit fairly often) and I'd hate to see my homestate pass such stupidity.

The issue has become more complex than anticipated

WTF?! Was she honestly so stupid as to think people would just go along with it? The scary part is that she didn't even admit anything was misguided or wrong about the legislation. "Oh it just got too much of a hassle, I'll save my legislating bigotry for another day." Eff you, lady. I was about to say "thank God" the pulled it until I realized in situations like this can actually be introduced with a clear conscience, there's not much to be thankful for.

Agreed... I hope this person doesn't get re-elected (to say the least).

Yeah, how about it being unconstitutional, unamerican, and unethical? How about that Ms. Miller?

Thanks for the update.

I hope they kick this state senator's ass out of office for this ludicrous bill at the next election.

Honestly, it's doubtful. I used to live in her district when I lived with my parents-it's white, middle-class suburbia, and this isn't the sort of thing they will get up in arms about. :/
