This might be one of the best headlines we've seen in a while.
A variety of news sources, from Gawker to The Huffington Post, are reporting that sex has accidentally been banned in Florida in an attempt to outlaw bestiality.
It's only sort of true.
Most reports end there, but the Miami Times jumped in to to explain that "animal" has been pre-defined in Chapter 828 of Florida law.
Obviously the law, which goes into effect in October, would never be enforced as such, but we're not sure this explanation makes things any better.

An act relating to sexual activities involving animals; creating s. 828.126, F.S.; providing definitions; prohibiting knowing sexual conduct or sexual contact with an animal; prohibiting specified related activities; providing penalties; providing that the act does not apply to certain husbandry, conformation judging, and veterinary practices; providing an effective date.

In other words, most people in Florida.
The guys that changed my view on controlling big guns like hunting rifles, shotguns.
Also, they made me like baseball.
Mouth-full of broken glass, home-run, happy day.

That sounds like humans to me! Maybe they really did want to ban sex, they didn't think this out very well.
At least Florida is outlawing it. Only 15 states have felony laws against bestiality and 12 have misdemeanor laws. Maybe someone can check the wording in those--it may be illegal to have sex there too. the other 21 states either don't care or think it's too widespread a problem to try to deal with.
