    Do you expect anything less from the Gay State?

    You'd think that they'd have more important things to be doing, like preventing the destruction of marriage in our society, but no. Massachuetts keeps on fighting a lost battle against Microsoft and now goes against spammers.

    They need to fix their courts before worrying about spammers.

    That and reign in their stupid Senators. How someone who has admitted to performing war crimes got elected to the senate just confuses me. But it does explain how messed up that state is.
