I also read it. I also don't see your point.
What about doggie abortions? I wonder what their position is on that.
I cannot believe anyone can possibly defend something like this. But then again I couldn't believe anyone would defend the marriage of two men or two women.
Why do you think it's an either or proposition? We can't have bestiality laws because we need other law more? What?
Her maiden name was "Cynthia Anita?" How odd. God, I hope that doesn't mean she's of Italian descent.
I know you're joking, but I DID say *given* name.
Any taxpayer money spent on convicting and incarcerating people for this, is money that will not be spent on something more important. And we shouldn't have laws on the books that it makes no sense to enforce.
Then I suggest you run for office. I believe it should be against the law for humans to have sex with animals but I'm just old-fashioned I guess.
Actually, I'm not even sure that's true. Once you wade through all the weasel-words in this article, all it says is that judges now have options in sentencing. It doesn't say that 20 years was mandatory, that judges can no longer impose hard time, or that this law is now or has even been enforced. This author is stretching to the moon in order to support his hell-in-a-handbasket thesis, but there is really nothing to see here - MA deleted some archaic and probably redundant laws, but we haven't moved a millimeter on any hypothetical slippery slopes...
later (triple bagger) pingout.
It would be interesting to see how many times someone has been prosecuted under this law since it was put on the books and how much time they served.
O.K., I would bet on the Unitarian Universalists.
If I could bet on Free Republic.
Which I can't.
But it is sort of like making love, isn't it?
Kind of, anyway?
Not like he was going to kill it and eat it.
They're cheering at DU.

Take a duck out for drinks and some dinner..."
Hopefully very few and very little. And it's a dangerous business having laws on the books that aren't enforced, as they tend to end up being enforced every blue moon, for totally unrelated and inappropriate reasons.
Really?
It's right in front of your nose.
LOL!
