quick, run for the nearest sheep before it's too late!! Sadly, this happens much too often.

[MeshugeMikey]

how islamic...is New Jersey these days!

[P.O.E.]

[adorno]

New Jersey is a liberal, progressive state. So, they’re not about to be judgmental about who or what people prefer for their sex ‘partners’. It’s a matter of choice or freedom of choice, and liberals won’t get in the way. With liberalism, anything goes.

[SandRat]

All the Animals are rejoicing!

[Talisker]

ROFL!

[Williams]

The offensive thing is that these laws used to exist to maintain some decency, but because there can be no morality, now they are passed strictly to protect the animals from assault. Because of course protection of animals is a high calling of the new order. Human morality is not.

[MrEdd]

So they intend to keep ManBearPig from getting his second Chakra released in New Jersey....

[Repeal 16-17]

Based on Lawrence v. Texas (2003) and its progeny, this law might violate people's fundamental right to consensual sex with animals.

[hosepipe]

MUZZIES will HATE THAT....

[Southside_Chicago_Republican]

It’s trans-species-ophobia.

[dfwgator]

Why? It’s only love. Who are we to judge?

[boycott]

I am going to have to borrow that one. I have some A&M friends.

[Mastador1]

They can’t do that! Depending on the Supreme Court’s decision they could be discriminating against someone’s wife or.............husband

[depressed in 06]

How can the state question who one can love?

[Sooth2222]

Maybe they'll pick up on incest in another 10 years. "New Jersey does not apply any penalties when both parties are 18 years of age or older."

(But possession of a "high-capacity" ammunition magazine is a felony.)

[skeptoid]

If the animal or creature dies as a result of the violation, it would be elevated to a third-degree crime – three to five years in jail and a fine of up to $15,000.

OK, but what if the human dies, as happened in the horse-mounts-man case in Washington State? His buddy finally took him to E.R., but it was too late (perforated colon). The victim died very quickly and his friend disappeared(later located)

No one was prosecuted, as I recall, because there was no law against bestiality in the state.

There is one now.

What right does a STATE have in defining relationships?
(how liberals see it)

Don’t be surprised if there’s a mass movement to repeal bestiality laws in 20 years or so - that is who these people are...that simple.

[PA Engineer]

Yeah. That is all fine and good, but what about trees!

[Joe Boucher]

Soooo,
sex with animals in New Jersey is a legal practice?
Somehow that doesn’t surprise me.
