The headline is totally bogus, as the facts outlined in the article show. Technically the decision has nothing to do with polygamy, it just makes multiple relationships outside of legal marriage no longer a crime.

Equal protection under the law—if they are not investigating adultery and “shacking up” they shouldn’t target this one group. I would be okay with more Puritan laws governing morality, but our society isn’t ready to jail or even fine those who are having sex outside of marriage.

Yes.

“Technically the decision has nothing to do with polygamy, it just makes multiple relationships outside of legal marriage no longer a crime.”

And more so, any relation outside of marriage.

Which means in any other state polygamy was all ready legal as well.
