I don’t know why people are so hung up on the legal aspects of polygamy. From what I’ve seen, “polygamy” is alive and well — and encouraged by U.S. welfare policy — all over the U.S. You might even say it’s the predominant culture in most of our cities.

What we have in those parts of the inner cities is not even polygamy. A true polygamist will take public responsibility for his wives and offspring. The Tom cats in the cities take no responsibity, gets territorial and aggressive, but will take free saucers of milk given out by well-meaning civilized folks.

Sure is in Maine. Lots of our Somalis have the 4-wives thing going. It is encouraged to the point that the welfare wallahs will give them one Sec. 8 apartment per wife, and pay for each dependent child.

How can polygamy possibly be against the law? If a number of women wish to make some sort of breeding arrangement with one man, with or without benefit of clergy or civil authority, who's to stop them?
