Katie Miller

Katie was at school when she heard the rumors. Something about the town council starting construction on pillories (medieval public **** instruments? REALLY???)? It apparently had to do with the ridiculous Colorado United Nudity Tribunal law that had been (unconstitutionally!) pushed through by the state legislature last year? Katie thought the whole CUNT law was completely stupid. Setting up a special tribunal to rule on any measures local governments passed to increase the birth rate was crazy. Honestly, she didn't really get why nobody else seemed to care about these things.

Actually, she did sort of know. Her mom Lynne watched too much TV and seemed to care more about staying fit, her older sister Laura was busy with her baby Amy (soooo cute), her older sister Alice was an airhead party girl, and her twin sister Sarah wasn't the brightest either. Her dad Tom half-jokingly had told her once that she'd gotten all the brains in the family, and while that was cruel it was sorta true. She was well on her way to becoming class valedictorian.

Last month the town council had already passed the S.L.U.T.T. law. The law called Shaming Ladies to Unite for Tots Together had basically given the council members unlimited latitude in how to raise the fertility numbers in the town. It was so dangerous! They had too much power, and Katie had been considering protesting the law until she realized she had a test to study for the next day.

And now the town council was having five pillories built in the main town square? Why? Who were they for? The more Katie heard, the more worried she got. After corroborating the news with her friends she rushed home to tell her mom Lynne.
