what legislators do

In Florida, ill-thought out law bans sex.

    It doesn’t. SFS tried to apply a scientific definition to legislation – which uses legal definitions – to fake a “gotcha”.

    Its a lame attempt.

  2. Kristopher Says:

    Yep … this is what happens when some idiot tries to apply logic to laws. Laws are not based on logic, they are based on legislation.

    Logic: Humans are animals, therefor the law bans sex.

    Legislation: Humans and animals are defined as two separate groups by earlier legislation, therefor this law does not apply to human-human sex.

    SFS is just trying to generate traffic via ignorance.

    yes, but it’s funny.

  4. John Smith. Says:

    Party animals yes. Animal animals no.

  5. Name Redacted Says:

    NO IT DOESN’T. Legal definition of an animal (which is the definition that matters for laws) excludes humans.

    Furthermore, the law is rather explicit in its definitions.

  6. Shootin' Buddy Says:

    Sarcasm fail.

    Kristopher: “Logic” doesn’t mean that. All logic means in this context is that the results follow from the assumptions. It is not automatically “logic” to apply scientific definitions in non-scientific contexts.

    “The word means what it means in a biological science context and doesn’t mean anything else ever” is arguably more illogical – since it denies the plain fact that the common usage of the term has excluded mankind from “animals” quite consistently.

    I agree that it’s a lame attempt – even as a joke.

    Yeah, Shawn, many commenters harrumphed out loud.
    There’s lawyers, and then there’s lawyers: Dagny never moaned to Hank “O you PERSON you!” And if they don’t say that in A.S., nobody says that. Cute monads, though.

  11. Name Redacted Says:

    I thought jokes were supposed to be funny, or at least somewhere in the vague direction of funny, or at least attempting to be funny.

  12. chris Says:

    What’s the statute of limitations on this offense?

    I would kind of like to go back there someday.

  13. TomcatTCH Says:

    Is this like the “If we allow gay marriage, people will marry their dog” line of stupid reasoning?

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
