Texas May Have Caucuses…
By …But still no dildos.
Remember a couple weeks ago when the traditionally conservative 5th circuit held that Texas’s ban on sex toys was unconstitutional?
Well, apparently the Texas AG is none too happy about Texas residents, um, getting happy, so he has petitioned the 5th Circuit to rehear the case en banc (which means it will be heard by all the judges of the court, rather than just a panel of three). In a line right out of the GOP “gay marriage will mean the end of the world” playbook, the AG claims that if the court’s decision is permitted to stand, it may “invite … challenges to previously-uncontroversial criminal prohibitions” on sexual practices such as “consensual adult incest or bigamy”
Because apparently that’s what’s happened in every other state where we allow people to use sex toys in peace (for the record, that would be 46 of them).
