THE German government is about to reintroduce a ban on bestiality, after pressure from animal welfare groups.
Newspaper die Tageszeitung reports that the governing coalition are soon to amend the country's Animal Welfare Act to make sex with animals punishable with a fine of up to 25,000 euros ($31,000).
Bestiality was legalised in Germany in 1969, the same year that gay sex was also removed from the criminal code. After that, sex with animals was only punishable if the animal was severely injured.
However animal welfare groups have pushed for the ban to be reinstated, in an advertising campaign that used dramatic examples of "animal rape".
Agriculture minister Ilse Aigner has agreed to change the law to make it illegal for people to "use (animals) for their own sexual activities or sexual acts of third parties" - which also bans the 'pimping' of animals to others.
However the move has aroused the ire of zoophile group ZETA.
Lobbyist Michael Kiok, who lives with his dog Cassie, told the newspaper there were more than 100,000 zoophiles in Germany.
"Mere morals have no place in law," he said.
Mr Kiok said he was worried that if the law took effect the authorities would try to take away his dog.
The amendment to the law will be debated in the German parliament in mid-December.
Wait, there are animal pimps? As in people who line up ‘business’ for animals?
So, they’re saying there are animals that are whores?
Maybe they were kidnapped and sold into the animal sex trade.
He never said, did he?
Another one for the “Nobody ever thought we’d REALLY need to pass a law on this topic” file.
Wouldn't it be sweet irony if it was the other way around...
Ox du lieber!
“ZETA”. not just for Mexicans any more.
The next thing you know all the sheep will be lined up on national TV trying to mooch contraceptives like Sandra Fluke.
On another note, I was just as flabbergasted that people need a law to tell them NOT to text and drive.
Goat im Himmel!
So, a city boy goes to visit his country cousin. After a few days on the farm, he asks, Hey? What do you do when you horny around here? Theres no women for miles
.
His country cousin points outside at a group of sows in an pen and says, I just get with one of them”.
The city cousin says, oh I dont know??
Then, Oh, what the hell OK!
After about 30 minutes, the city boy comes back inside. His cousin asks him, Well? How was it?
Well, to be honest, I didnt really like it.
What?? said the country cousin. Why not? Which one did you pick.
That big black and white one.”
To which, the country cousin replied, “Well HELL man! You picked the ugliest one!
[ Germany to ban sex with animals ]
Thats THIS WEEK... next week might be limits on which WHICH animals you can have sex with..
There, as always, is the problem. Allowing beastiality is a matter of morality... or rather, a lack thereof. All law is a moral position. That is what law is. If 'morals' are 'mere', what then is the law that serves it?
The real test is whether they also ban marriage to animals...
That would be intolerant and “speci-ist”.
Saw this bumper sticker 20 years ago...”I didn’t do it, nobody saw me, and the sheep are lying.”
The first word that came to mind when I read sex with animals was: Democrats.
O-baaa-ma! O-baaa-ma! O-baaa-ma! O-baaa-ma!
LOL!
When a society is sufficiently sick (in both the moral and medical sense) sometimes all one can do is cauterize.
See 1 Samuel 15:3.
Did you ever wonder why a Loving God would command such an act? ANY infected survivor; man, woman, child, or farm animal could ultimately doom the conquerors.
