>>Is bestiality next<<
I REALLY doubt bestiality appeals to many people. I doubt there will be massive parings of humans and animals because gays are married. People that do that are probably already doing it. Should they be hunted down and put in prison? I don't think that is a good use of resources. People can be conducting bestiality in their outbuildings today without much fear of being caught. If there is howling and shrieking, it is a problem. Short of that, probably not my concern.

My reading of the Declaration of Independence is "All PEOPLE are created equal..." which IMO sets the tone for the constitutional interpretation. Maybe in 300 years when we have all sorts of creatures made of various animal parts and genetic hybrid material it will be "All CREATURES are created equal.." but not today. As I said to Tim, the target is moving.

I was being flippant, but my main objections to polygamy are the safety of the children and the potential for exploitation, but the law addresses this now with endangerment laws. The people that engage in it don't have a lot of property protections. Those are probably about the same as people who share common walls in condos. Polygamists can already live together today without legal consequence as I said.
