[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BTW, there is talk of challenging (among other things) the constitutionality of a man (or woman) not being able to SAY that they have more than one spouse. It gets into freedom of speech issues. I hope thatthe polygamists can present their arguments in a clear and calm way to get legislation changed. Illegal plural marriage is truly a violation of their rights.[/quote] Saying you have more than one spouse doesn't make you a bigamist. You have to actually get married. Here is relevant section of the DC Code (http://dccode.org/simple/sections/22-501.html) "Whoever, having a spouse or domestic partner living, marries or [b]enters a domestic partnership with another[/b] shall be deemed guilty of bigamy." Nothing in there about calling someone your spouse.[/quote] That is a bit much. So essentially they can throw you in the slammer for this?[/quote]
