Kentucky better than image

An open letter to the world at large from a Kentuckian, in regard to a letter about the Juno probe, Kim Davis, Ken Ham and the Ark/Creation Museum, the people who have tried to marry a computer and an animal in an attempt to illustrate their point about marriage equality, Sen. Mitch McConnell, Gov. Matt Bevin, et al.:

Dear rest of the world,

We’re not all like this. It’s actually a really beautiful state with a lot of very intelligent, reasonable, rational people, and it’s disappointing that this is what makes the news, because it absolutely does not define us as a whole. Also, we do own and wear shoes. Generally.

Peace.
