GAY ALIENS FOUND IN UFO CRASH


I didn't read the article to find out if they were travelling from their home planet in order to attempt to get married in Massachusetts

The very next law on the books after that 1913 law, as Lis and I were pointing out last year, is the law which states that city and town clerks are SPECIFICALLY not required to ASK if the people getting married are Massachusetts residents.

And given how many Massachusetts residents are from other planets originally, there's no reason to suspect that they're not residents.

"clerks are SPECIFICALLY not required to ASK if the people getting married are
Massachusetts residents."

Quite so, it turns out.

"And given how many Massachusetts residents are from other planets originally,"

Perhaps you can tell by comparing the two laws that not many (understatement) of
Massachusetts politicians are from Vulcan. :-\
