"Now, as sick and repugnant as I find the concept of beastiality, I can't find a compelling reason to make it illegal in the privacy of one's own home. "

I have a reason... An animal can not give consent to sex with a human.

I have a better reason:

A week or so ago, there was a story out of Canada that was posted on FR. Some depraved scumbag was found in his house with--get this--two dead German Shepherds that were wearing bras and panties. He sodomized and killed them both.

Ok, make the case that this guy isn't a danger to society; that he was just 'doing his own thing'. IMHO, this guy is a serial killer waiting to happen and should be locked up for life.

Animals can't consent to anything, period, because animals don't have rights, period. Otherwise, we'd be brought up on murder charges every time we turned them into tasty steaks and attractive leather boots.

I still can't find any reason it's a compelling state interesting to make illegal, but I figure if the moron gets himself caught doing it, cite him with animal abuse. I doubt we'll have SWAT agents busting down his door over it.
