Animal activists demand law against animal sex

The Swedish veterinary organization claims that several hundred pets are raped in Sweden every year. Now there is a demand for a law making sex with animals illegal.

To rape an animal is not illegal in Sweden and the sexual assaults are becoming more and more common, stated Johan Beck-Friis at Sveriges Veterinärförbund (the Swedish veterinary organization), quoted Swedish paper Aftonbladet.

"The perpetrators are often just ordinary people with a family and children," Beck-Friis explained. "Pets are most vulnerable. Dogs, and even cats, but also other animals like horses, cows and sheep."

He now demands that Sweden makes animal sex illegal, and he is not alone. The paper reported that along with the Sveriges Veterinärförbund, Lantbrukarnas riksförbund (Farmers' national organization), the Swedish Kennel Club Organization, Djurskyddet i Sverige (The Swedish animal protection organization) and Animal Rights Sweden want a law change.

According to Beck-Friis, the reason why the issue surface right now is because the number of assaults is increasing.

"It appears as if the assaults are becoming more common," Beck-Friis said. "We have noticed an increase ever since child pornography became illegal in 1996."

Sex with animals was decriminalized in 1944 when homosexual sex no longer became punishable by law.

The sexual assaults of animals have been received a lot of reactions lately, among others in the Swedish radio program Front a couple a weeks ago. A man called in to the program and defended animal sex.

"I have sex with horses and dogs too. It is not as complicated as having sex with people," the man stated.

The problem has even been discussed in the Swedish government. Gustav Fridolin, member of the Swedish environmental party, presented a motion to make animal sex illegal last year, but only six persons voted in favour of the bill.

"They are afraid of dictating sexual preferences," Beck-Friis said. "We firstly want a law against sexual assaults. When animals are hurt, we must react."

Everyone's laughing, but this is EXACTLY what you can expect here within fewer years than you might think. This is just a bit further on down that slippery slope than our own society is at the moment. Once the government starts saying one perversion is okay, the rest will follow.

This is the result of a Godless society, one in which man decided he was perfectly capable of figuring out his own sense of right and wrong.

"I've pretty much just decided to move to a cave somewhere"

That's irony. The cave man is more civilized than the rest of the "modern" world!

We could hold out long enough for the world to come to its senses.

Throw in some beef jerky, and you've got yourself a deal....:)

You know, there are just some sentences you think you'll never read in you life.

I just think there's a lot of sexual tension since ABBA broke up. Maybe Bjorn and Benny spent to much time "walking the dog" and Agnetha and Anni-Frid got jealous.

Plus they seem to like livestock for reasons that escape me.

There's a really funny joke lurking in this passage somewhere, but it's late and I'm too sleepy to find it.

And what have we learned on FreeRepublic today, class?

Sickos are murdering children in cold blood.

Bush and the GOP are at each other's throats.

Swedes do the horizontal mambo with animals.

Female US troops are being raped.

There was a strong earthquake in Indonesia.

Pervs are installing cameras in the girl's john in school.

A Mexican hospital held a family for ransom.

Animal-killing, retarded father married and schtupped his retarded daughter.

We've had better days.

"Now there is a demand for a law making sex with animals illegal."

One would think that law would be there in the first place.

"Reminds me of the tale of the Texan in Alaska, a bear, and an Eskimo woman."

I know the punchline to this. Where is that Eskimo woman I was supposed to kill?

Did David Hasselhoff really help end the Cold War?

I better get to bed as well, I'm sleeping and getting slaphappy reading this stuff and laughing my you know what off. Unbelievable.

I just hope it doesn't give me "nightMARES". (Forgive me for that one, like I said, I'm sleepy.)

How did I miss that gem of a thread about Hasselhoff? And check out that pic of Dave with the wrinkly dogs.
Is that a photoshop thing, or does he need to move to Sweden?

I'm looking to buy me a snake.

Typical that St. Patrick got rid of them.
The Catholic Church is to blame for everything! ;-)

Actually, there are advantages:

- You can stay out as late as you want and the animal won't b***h at you about it.

- If the animal's children walk in on you, who cares?

- No pillow talk (unless you start it).

- No entreaties to paint the ceiling or buy her a new car afterward.

- No kids to worry about.

- You don't have to look your best.

- The animal won't compare you with other animals to the other animals.

- If its a cow or a chicken, you can slaughter and barbeque it afterward.

No, one would think such a law would be totally unnecessary.
