There will always need to be laws to protect animals and judging by the sickening amount of animals discarded and put to death, I hardly think animal protection is over legislated at this point. I'm not sure why you chose to attack the whole state but FL has basic, humane laws in place to protect animals such as a minimum age to sell puppies (I don't believe NJ does?) as well as other laws that many states don't have such as outlawing the use of gestation crates (I don't believe your state has that law either?).
As far as same sex couples not being permitted to adopt children? First, huh?
How are you comparing this to animals procreating?
I have no idea how this relates to the topic of this thread but since for some reason you brought it up... it certainly isn't one of my state's prouder points any more than prop 8 passing in CA was proud for them. I am proud that my state is ahead of many others in protecting animals (which is what this thread is about) and continues to make protection of animals a priority.
