It repeals criminal code section 3-322 which prohibits bestiality. Did Maryland just legalize bestiality?? https://mgaleg.maryland.gov/2023RS/bills/hb/hb0131T.pdf https://mgaleg.maryland.gov/mgawebsite/Laws/StatuteText?article=gcr§ion=3-322&enactments=false#:~:text=§3–322.&text=(3)%20commit%20another%20unnatural%20or,not%20exceeding%20%241%2C000%20or%20both. |
| Unless there are other bestiality laws they didn’t repeal it looks like bestiality is now legal in Maryland |
|
No, it decriminalizes oral sex. This is what was repealed:
A person may not take the sexual organ of another or of an animal in the person's mouth; place the person's sexual organ in the mouth of another or of an animal; commit another unnatural or perverted sexual practice with another or with an animal. A person who violates this section is guilty of a misdemeanor and on conviction is subject to imprisonment not exceeding 10 years |
section 3-322 is a bestiality law. The bill repeals it |
| What you wrote the other unnatural acts would involve other sex acts. Bestiality is now completely legal in md |
Finally, some real progress. |
| This is disgusting. |
It’s such an odd law, to equate sexual acts with a person with sexual acts with an animal. You’d think they’d be separated as they are very different. |
JFC. Horrid for the animals. Keep voting left, MD! |
| I feel sorry for the poor animals in MD. Now everyone and everything is at the mercy of the Democrats. |
| David moon. Who is now the md majority leader, introduced this law |
|
This is uninformed alarmism.
The Democrats in Maryland made bestiality a felony in 2019. Bestiality is covered under a different part of the criminal code (10-606). This was an obsolete part of the code that could have been used to bust someone for getting a bj from their wife. |
nope. Still illegal. Hope you're okay with that. |
10-606 is the bestiality law, fittingly in with other animal abuse charges. 3-322 is a sodomy law. This bill repeals it, allowing oral sex among consenting adults to not be a crime. |
and animals and all sex acts with animals |
