What else did Jesus overturn through His silence? What about the rules against bestiality? Did Jesus say bestiality was okay by saying nothing about it?

I see your point, but the New Testament also confirmed a lot of Old Testament laws.
The logic to say, that if something is not stated as a sin it is allowed, is unbiblical because the bible did not say everything is allowed except the named sins. In fact some things are explicit allowed, so I could say everything is forbidden except the allowed things, what is of curse wrong.
The conclusion: The laws that are not mentioned are not revealed to be allowed or forbidden, we just do not know. But I think the New Testament can tell what is sin and what not.
