What Is Legal? What Is Illegal? What Is Barely Legal?

The old Ali G joke. A classic.



When you think that 2 grown men wanting to get married is illegal, think about what is legal. For instance, it is legal for an 80 year old man to have sex with an 18 year old girl. It's gross, but he can marry her, too. There is not one family in America that would be proud about a 80 year old marrying an 18 year old, but he has the right to do it.

It's bizarre what you can think of to expand this argument, what two heterosexuals can marry: someone divorced 6 times can marry someone else divorced six times, the whole cousins can marry [just ask Rudy Giuliani], and for your "marriage is sacred" folks Michael Jackson got married. WTF?
