Despite excellent work the Utah Legislature did this year to pile on laws to torment child sex offenders, Utah is still behind the curve.

Virginia state lawmakers passed a law Saturday that would require adults who French kiss a kid (the French seem to be behind everything unAmerican) spend the rest of their lives on the sex offender registry.

Those convicted of tongue-kissing a child would be guilty of a misdemeanor, punishable by up to one year in jail and a $2,500 fine.

The only nay vote came from a lawmaker who insisted that French kissing kids warrants a full-on felony.

Note: If the child is 13 years old or older — tongue kissing is A-OK in Va.
