Should having children with a cousin be illegal?

[Anonymous]

Albert Einstein and Abraham Maslow both had parents who were cousins and married their first cousin. Nobody in the media says this.

Yes this pollutes the gene pool

it's always really morbidly interesting to see how incestuous genes eventually and likely fucks up a person, have you heard about the Habsburgs? They were a European royal family who married incredibly incestuously, you hear about all kinds of family members marrying each other in history but the Habsburgs REALLY wanted to keep it in the family and their main line eventually got wiped out because of this, most European monarchies are related in some way anyways but a lot of people most definitely have some sort of incest going on in their ancestry anyways

Yes, and it is in more states.

[LiamJHayden]

It is legal in much of the United States.

As far as I know, it is! But, Jerry Lee Lewis did it
I'm pretty sure 2nd or 3rd cousins or any beyond that is okay.
