State In US Legalizes Sex Outside Marriage by massmediang: 7:03am On Apr 01, 2019 |
Utah Gov. Gary Herbert (R) late Wednesday signed a bill decriminalizing fornication, making it legal to have sex outside of marriage. The law repeals the 1973 misdemeanor crime of fornication, or sex between people who are not married. The previous law criminalizing fornication was included in the state’s criminal code chapter on offenses against the family, Fox 13 News reported. Those found guilty could have faced up to six months in jail and a fine of $1,000. The law, however, was not pursued by police for prosecution and was not enforced. Some conservative lawmakers in the state disapproved of the repeal, according to Fox 13. “What is legally [right] is often far below what is morally right,” Rep. Keven Stratton (R) said when the bill passed the legislature earlier this month, according to Fox 13. “And I recognize our laws are not strong enough to rule a [sic] immoral people.” Herbert also signed a bill earlier this week that decriminalizes adultery and sodomy among consenting adults, according to the outlet.

Watch as some egusi filled brains will begin to make this look good and soon they will begin to push for it here also. Besides fornication is sweet for the very fact that it is done in secret.Inside the car,hidden hotels, hidden phone calls,late nights,etc. Why take the fun away from it by making it legal? 1 Like |

Teddiie: no. it decriminalized adultery, and didn't legalise it. there's s difference It used to be a criminal offence, even though they didn't prosecute. Now it's no longer the business of the law what people decide to do with their free time 1 Like |

OP, stop trying to sensationalise nonsense. The write up specifically said they decriminalized it, and not legalise it 2 Likes |
