JP decides for you that cuties like this shouldn't exist.
It only takes proof of divorce if previously married, a birth certificate, social security card, $35 and three days to wait to get a license to marry in Louisiana. That is of course unless the two of you are different races and you run into one particular JP who has been cheerfully denying interracial couples the right to marry for 2½ years. (See more here.)
Then you don't get to have a license because it wouldn't be good for your kids to be mixed race. Because he knows. And he gets to decide. Well, at least until he gets reported. Because there is too much love in this world. Wanna take any guesses about where he is on pro-choice/pro-life? How about the death penalty? Snide remark. Yeah. Hateful policies, you betcha.
ACLU meet JP Bardwell. Monsieur, le ALCU. Laissez le bon sens roulez!
