Slog - Comments on Gay Marriage Out Polling Something! http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/03/gay_marriage_out_polling_something In California it's illegal to own a ferret. Gay marriage is also illegal. And when asked, more Californians would vote to legalize gay marriage (43%) than ferrets (38%). "That's kind of absurd," said Pat Wright, who founded Ferrets Anonymous in 1993 and directed a fundraising campaign to pay the $6,000 for Field Research to conduct the poll. "I thought California was more of a live-and-let-live state. If we had proposed legalized gay marriage or marijuana, we would've gotten a higher number." This is all very bad news for Wright and the others who sought a ballot measure to legalize ferrets...

If it is predicted that they will destroy the ecosystem, or something, than this would make a bit more sense.

It doesn't lead to procreation, it's unnatural, and Jesus never specifically approved of it.

That's probably the best reason they have to outlaw ferrets.

It sounds like Gay Marriage is a person who's Out somewhere determining what Something's opinion is.

And someday we really need to tackle the issue of ferret marriage.

The analogy to gay marriage was mine, and I commissioned the survey. At least my husband is more accepted than my pets! And he's much more of an animal.

It just goes to show the absurdity of government and all their intrusive laws. If you'd liket get involved, go to www.legalizeferrets.org.
