Louisiana's maternal mortality rate of 58.1 deaths per 100,000 births is the highest in the United States. But it seems we're looking at this all wrong, probably another one of those queer left-wing constructs.

A February Gallup poll found that 7.1% of Americans now identify as LGBTQ – a 100% increase over 2012 numbers and a 26% increase over 2021! Worse yet is that for ages 18-24, an astounding 39% self-identified as LGBTQ.
Identifying as LGBTQ turns out to be as a popular choice as much as piercings and skinny jeans!
