I am really appalled after seeing this in Yahoo News. For the editor of the paper to not offer an apology is ridiculous. Comparing two consenting adults to a man and a sheep is biased, degrading and harmful. If you think gay marriage will lead to marriage of a man and a sheep, you are pretty ignorant. Gay people deserve equal rights and the right to be treated with decency and respect. The editor of the paper should be fired for her lack of common sense and fair reporting. Allowing an image of a man and a sheep to be compared to two gay people is poor judgement on her part and also shows her lack of authority. Is this the future of the free press? I hope not.

It's really a shame that it was printed in the Opinion section, where opinions of (often ignorant) people are printed. how dare she not apologize for an opinion writer stating his opinion!
