I suppose when you elect a governor best known for being a cyborg from the future you really shouldn’t expect reason and rationality when it comes to politics. I really try hard to stay away from most politics (at least here) because my “I really don’t give a fuck anymore” attitude makes people think, incorrectly, that I do not care. I do care. So much in fact that I get physically and mentally exhausted with anger when I think about most political issues. So for my mental health, I tend to stay away.
Anyway, here’s the rundown on what irritates me:
He signed a bill allowing HIV positive men to donate sperm (to willing HIV-free recipients). Apparently they will ‘clean’ the sperm first. This is clearly one of the stupidest things I have ever heard of.
On the flip side, he thankfully vetoed the bill that would have allowed mothers to ‘drop-off’ (read: abandon) their babies after 30 days. Currently you can do this within 72 hours. There really should not be a ‘try-it before you buy it’ policy with children. I see nothing wrong with taking 30 days to figure out the adoption process rather than abandoning your kid at a fire station.
My answer to both: STOP BREEDING.
He vetoed the identity theft bill. Why? He is stupid like that.
Arnie, a lover of crocodile skin boots, signed a bill allowing the sale of kangaroo skin. I’m so glad that with all the important issues at hand, you could take the time to ensure the death of more animals for your shoes. Synthetic leather for the win, people.
Also of note, he signed a bill allowing victims of domestic violence to obtain protection orders…for their pets. Yeah.
But, he vetoed the gay marriage bill. Has he not figured out yet that his wife is really a man?
But you forget… Why should Arnold be concerned with breeding? After all, it just means more fodder to Terminate when the cyborgs take over the world.
