Petition Make Marriage to Cousins illegal

More details

I call for Marriage to Cousins from to be deemed illegal! Marriage to 1st cousins especially, can lead to birth defects, that will mean the children from such a marriage, have a high possibility of being disabled costing Taxpayers Billions. This can also be the case with any other close generations of cousins, that would share the same DNA of their Parents Grandparents or Great Grandparents ie 2nd and 3rd cousins.
