Colorado Legislative Debate - Will Gay Marriage Lead to Bestiality?

This morning's Denver Post carried a great op-ed piece by Jim Spencer which addresses a Colorado State Representative, Jim Welker's, assertion that unless Colorado enacts a gay marriage ban, people will be marrying their dogs and horses and, well... Spencer says, in part:

"Welker's talk of people marrying dogs and horses is the stuff of tabloid headlines. Worse, it oozes prejudice.

"Colorado now has the distinction of having a state representative who equates homosexuality with bestiality.

"That kind of hatred is almost impossible to embrace.

"Most of us would rather kiss a pig."
