The AV Club reports on the comedian best known for his depiction of Ron Swanson on “Parks and Recreation,” one of the best characters in television history

Nick Offerman may be famous for playing a fictional Hoosier, but he and his wife/comedy partner Megan Mullally are lovers, not haters. That’s why the duo is joining Wilco in exercising their religious freedom to tell Indiana to shove it. Earlier today, Offerman announced on Twitter that the planned Indianapolis date for his and Mullally’s Summer of 69: No Apostrophe tour has been canceled due to the state’s newly passed “religious freedom” law. Offerman will still perform solo at Indiana University tomorrow, but has pledged to donate his pay to the LGBTQ rights group Human Rights Campaign.
