The article conveniently leaves out that 19 states allow marriages between first cousins and additional states allow those marriages under certain conditions according to Wikipedia. It also is legal in most countries.
Never bothering to make a law about something is VERY different than having made such a law in the past and making a point to go out of their way to change it.
Plus, it is funny bc it reinforces the stereotype, which this comment summarizes well.
