Ban divorce? Ballot effort gets OK to gather signatures

I fall so madly in love with you whenever you say shit like this. Normally, I'd jokingly ask you to marry me, but frankly, I don't want to deal with the repercussions if it goes sour. :P

Repercussions if it goes sour... you mean the lack of an opting out protocol?

Since they're going for this "traditional family values" version of marriage husbands still have a way out by simply killing their wife. It's not sin (murder) if what they're killing is property (i.e. livestock) so it would be perfectly kosher. If the wife wants out, that's too bad- if she is a "good" by the book christian she'll silently put up with any bullshit the husband has anyway.

This brings up another good point, we can't let these hypocrites flee to another state to get divorced. These reforms should include preventative-detention of all married christians in the state of California so they cannot leave the state. Only to keep it fair we should make sure it doesn't feel like prison... perhaps just fence in the whole state so they can have it to themselves. This should make them happy, after all they'd finally be getting their Christian nation-state that they've been trying to turn America into for the last ~388 years.

That wouldn't be a perfect solution, because they'd still have vice at their disposal like science & technology. So after fencing in the state, all technology should be considered contraband and be confiscated. We could just send it all to needy 3rd world countries that could use it.

Then with this technology-void, fenced in state of California finished, it would be fitting to rename it. How about Eden?

I think the adult industry should throw as much money into helping this pass as they possibly can. Hookers and porn will get the much needed stimulus they have been needing.

They? Are you excluding yourself?

No.

The out of work divorce attorneys would break the fragile california economy. Divorce attorneys must be at least 105% of our population.

as someone who is most likely heading for a divorce after 12+ yrs I would not want the state tell me I have to stay married.

The scary thing about this is that this lady is an elected official. Why not elect communist now, she is stripping people of the rights anyway.

There is no need, the people of CA are quite profficient at stripping away the rights of others.

She would merely be giving them what they were demanding; marriage as a christian religious institution.

Worst part of divorce is the effect on kids if any. Its where I am devoting all my time and effort. Ensuring the kids best interests are put first. Everything else is secondary to me
