Comments

Mr. Shawn D. Lambert writes:

Love it. It bears testimony of the rich history of the United States and Virginia.

Although, the Culpeper variation would have been more to Virginia history in particular.

Bearing Drift, tracking this bill in Photosynthesis, notes:

Bearing Drift opposes this bill until they correct "Don't" to "Dont." Until that point, we don't really care, other than the fact that we find it ironic.

Isaac Adams writes:

What does the word Dont mean?
