Vicky Hartzler compares gay marriage to incest, pedophilia

If the gays can marry, then marriage won’t mean anything, Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler (R-Hatesville, Missouri) argued yesterday at the Eagle Forum Collegians 2011 Summit.

Don’t even try to argue that you’re in a committed relationship, gays. Not in Hartzler’s world. She said legalizing gay marriage would open up the floodgates to polygamy and polyamory (which she called “some big name”), and then she just got wacky. “Why not allow an uncle to marry his niece? Why not allow a 50-year-old man to marry a 12-year-old girl if they love each other and are committed?” See, to Hartzler, marriage equality is just like incest and pedophilia. H/t: Right Wing Watch.
