The Finnish Parliament is in session

Or was, yesterday. Among the laws up for debate was one conerning the right of same-sex couples to adoption. They got in about ten statements until MP Pentti Oinonen, of the dearly beloved Base Finns, lived up to their name. According to Oinonen, if Finland allows same-sex couples to adopt children, the next thing we'll be allowing is paedophilia and marrying animals. If you want to read the actual text, glance over at my Finnish-language blag.

I thought we did all this already when Finland (sort of nearly) legalized same-sex marriages. But apparently the Base Finns aren't done with us yet. Lest you think this is just Oinonen speaking, he was quite adamant that their chairman, Timo Soini, agrees with him completely.

I'm sure he does.
