Moral Outrage Moments of the Week (and possibly year...)

Reposted from [livejournal.com profile] gregoria44:

Alabama city to destroy Indian mound for retail store

That's right, folks. They're going to destroy a place of archaelogical/anthropological/spiritual importance...to build a Sam's Club.

ETA: There's a protest!

AUGUST 30TH
TWO PM TO FIVE PM (2-5 PM)
at the STONE MOUND behind KOHL'S ON OXFORD EXCHANGE in Oxford, Alabama

(Many thanks to the awesome [livejournal.com profile] gregoria44 for the protest reminder!)

From [livejournal.com profile] juno_magic on Twitter:

New Afghan legislation further diminishes women's rights

The revised bill allows husbands to starve their wives if the women deny their husbands sexual favors. Afghan laws are typically made of several types of fail, but this is fail of epic proportions, even by those standards.

Gawd, the world just gets more effed up everyday.
