    The wonderful state of South Dakota is at it again. It pretty much says that you can be fired or refused to be hired because of sexual orientation; you can be denied service because of your sexual orientation; you cannot sue anyone because of this discrimination and if you try, you will pay legal costs; and the Legislature finds that any federal recognition of any specific sexual orientation as a protected class does not apply in South Dakota and may not be enforced within the geographical boundaries of South Dakota.

    I really hate my home state sometimes.

    That is quite sad, considering South Dakota is the state that gave us George McGovern...

    Somebody obviously failed high school government, or that they'd know about the supremacy clause.
