This is unbelievable. Government has no business in this sort of matter. And this law also seems to discriminate against straight people, if I am reading it correctly.
Okay let's see if the liberal federalists decide the federal courts should butt out of this one. Oh, and by the way, Florida has a similar law. Michael Shiavo should be immediately arrested.
I think it's a dumb law, but should be a state's rights issue.
We may decry -- in fact, I often do -- the continued erosion in moral standards. But whether we like it or not, the law needs to reflect, at least to some extent, contemporary attitudes. It may have been considered shacking up in the 1950s, but it's utterly mainstream behavior today.
Perhaps we should bring back the dunking stool, scarlet letters, and prosecution of women for being scolds.
If you believe in the at-will principle regarding employment, the boss was completely in his rights.
If only they made a MOAB for egos.
This was a stupid law when it was passed, it is still a stupid law.
Once and for all, I wish government, state, federal, and local, would get out of the marriage business altogether.
Well, okay.... maybe they can share the same house.... But, I better not catch them riding their camel downtown before 6pm on Sundays or dancing backwards after 9:00pm on Saturday night!
Trouble, trouble, trouble...
With a capital 'T'
That rhymes with 'B'
That stands for 'B-I-itch'!
The Constitution guarantees the right to freedom of association last time I checked. This law is unconsitutional. When someone has the guts to challenge it, it will go down in flames.
Whether you agree with this law or not, its still the law.
It would be highly inappropriate for an employee of the Sherriff to be breaking the law. I agree with the Sherriff on this.

It used to be that women were not considered anything but property ie in earlier domestic violence cases men would be charged with "Abusing Livestock" when hurting women. Now we can go to war die for our country but we better not be unwed and living with a man. Shame Shame and I would have thought after all these years we have evolved some over the course of 100 years! Living in sin?? Let he has sinned not cast the first stone...Yeah I don't hear any stones hitting dirt.
