5:29p - The Gay & Slippery Slope
Presented for your approval. The idea was put forth by [info]pantyless_angel in this thread, and I reworded it. I searched the Wiki and couldn't find a law regarding this exact subject, but feel free to let me know if it's been done or you have a better name for it.

The Gay & Slippery Slope
In any discussion about homosexuality, gay relationships, and/or same-sex marriage, should one side compare one or more of those things to/argue that one of those things will lead to:

1. Rampant llegal and/or harmful activities such as illegal drug use, pedophilia, or bestiality
2. Legalizing marriage to one's close relatives, to pets/animals, or to inanimate objects
3. Threatening the rights of heterosexual couples and marriage
4. Destruction of the family unit in America
5. The eventual dying out or destruction of the human race;

The person who made the comparison automatically loses the argument and shall be thwacked over the head with (Link NSFW) this blunt instrument, wielded by a frothing, bug-eyed Lewis Black, until such time as sense is beaten into their head. Repeat beatings may be administered if the subject loses consciousness before sense enters. Actual penetration with said blunt instrument is permissable if the subject uses the "Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve" argument in their comparison or claims that equal rights for homosexuals are "special rights".

ETA: Punishment amended at the suggestions of [info]pastri_archy, [info]ladybirdsleeps, and [info]sorchar.

ETA 2: Number 5 on the list added per [info]firebad's suggestion.
