More states allow cousin marriage than gay marriage

From DeathandTaxesmag.com: “19 U.S. states allow residents restriction-free access to marrying a first cousin and starting a large, genetically limited family. Meanwhile, only five U.S. states currently allow citizens to marry someone of the same sex.”

  1. But where can I marry my gay cousin?

  2. Yes even the great state of VT has its quirks. While evidence of inbreeding is scare in most parts, the Northeast Kingdom, as this section is called, is the real back country of Vermont. Lacking economic prosperity which much of the state enjoys due to the Skiing Industry, sadly, the NE Kingdom lacks any major–even minor, as far as I remember–ski area. As Stirling Castle (Braveheart) is the gateway to the Scottish Highlands, Tunbridge is the gateway to this kingdom. And visiting the Tunbridge Co. Fair is an introduction to what lies beyond the green mts. to the northeast. Many a child such as the banjo player above could be seen, along with the tractor pulling events, and other such events which were once staples of early ’80′s ESPN. The state training school for these children was in VT’s 2nd largest city, where I also lived for a few years, Rutland, (pop. 17,500 +/-), not too far from my house. In long lines, holding hands, they’d be led along the sidewalks, to, uncertain and shaky futures, I imagine.

  3. You know what they say……

    “Incest is best, Hey grandma, come on over here!”

    LOL!!!!
