Article 14, Section 265 of the Missississippi State Constitution
Though it is not enforced, and is against Article VI, Paragraph 3 of the United States Constitution, this still remains on the books.
Floodwaters from the Yazoo River creep across farm fields near Yazoo City, Miss., on May 19. For thousands of people forced from their homes by the rising Mississippi River, life has become a tedious waiting game: waiting for meals at shelters, waiting for the latest word on their flooded homes, waiting for the river to fall.

Fortified: A home is seen protected from encroaching floodwaters by a levee near Yazoo City, Mississippi, on Wednesday, May 18. Weeks of heavy rains and runoff from an unusually snowy winter caused the Mississippi River to rise, flooding thousands of homes and 3 million acres (1.2 million hectares) of farmland in Mississippi, Tennessee and Arkansas and evoking comparisons to historic floods in 1927 and 1937.

I like facts. I share random crap from the interweb. Sometimes it's pop culture related, quite often it's political. Most times I just find it amusing. Oh, and space. I love space.
I source everything I can; it's just rude to not.
If you don't source something that I want to reblog, I will add it for you. You're welcome.
