You know, I'm thinking that if someone has a history of harming children, I don't want our daughter riding the bus he/she drives, even if the harm happened in a non-bus environment.
Just so we're clear. She wasn't harming children to the best of anyone's knowledge. Her only "problem" according to Princeton was being a pagan and having a vampire for a husband.
Yes, yes, I agree. Just "being" a vampire or a pagan, or both, does not make her a danger. You know, except to their impressionable little minds. Like it they went to a movie theater to see Hostel and had to be subjected to seeing the title Brokeback Mountain on the marquee.

I was pretty sure I wasn't going to blog about our local kook because, well, I think he's a loon, and just not really worth the buzz just because he's strange. But the fact that his wife was fired from her job as a bus driver for being a pagan in Princeton...damn I hope that's wrong because it's seriously f-ed up. You should not get fired from being a bus driver for religious reasons unless your religion involves harming children and particularly harming children in a bus-related venue. I hope this drives home a point for Mr. Impaler...you can't consider yourself like anything vaguely approaching a Republican and still expect that they'll support your values if you're different, i.e. not Christian (and potentially, not white...but you seem fine on that front). It's antithetical. You are what fits the cookie cutter mold, or you're gone. If you don't fit the mold, you better damn well either a.) pretend to fit the mold or b.) have enough money to buck the mold, or you're going to pay the price - and selling sparkly cloaks, well, I'm pretty sure that doesn't score enough green to buck the mold, at least not Abramoff style. I don't know of a liberal Democrat friend of mine that would have fired your wife - so keep that in mind while you preach your policy of intolerance and impaled vengence. Embrace a bit of peace and tolerance and it'll embrace you back.

Sounds like a pretty good case for a First Amendment challenge -- not only for freedom of religion but also freedom of association.
And, BTW, whew, I thought DC politics were surreal. MN certainly keeps it lively!
