    It’s voluntary. If they don’t submit to being butchered they serve more time. That’s it!

          Not sure what you see funny about state sanctioned sexual mutilation. I’m going to guess you stupidly believe the Louisiana Republicans when they say that this is to punish “pedophiles”, not that it would make something this inhumane ethical or legal.

            You misunderstood my “LOL.” It was there because the entire thing is fucking barbaric, so giving them a “choice” is laughable.

              You misunderstood my “LOL.”

              This misunderstanding isn’t on me. It’s not on others to understand what you mean regardless of what you say, it is on you to speak precisely. If you’re going to use “lol” in extremely insensitive contexts like this, you can expect people to be unhappy with you. For 35+ years now “lol” has been shorthand for laughing at something because you think it is funny. You’re never going to write “lol” in such a way that anyone will interpret it as some sort of nuanced “this is laughable” statement, especially when you write it it all caps imply that you are having a hard laugh.

              With that said, nothing about this is funny, and no use of “lol” here is appropriate as it sounds celebratory at worst and dismissive at best.

                Settle the fuck down. You don’t get to dictate how language evolves, and I understood them perfectly.

      You’re stretching the definition of “voluntary” far enough to embarrass a libertarian.

        I am stretching nothing as that is literally in the text of the law. And I absolutely do not agree with any of it.
