This is a dark day in American history. The Supreme Court has once again over stepped its bounds and made a policy decision instead of defending the Constitution. Something that is totally out of the scope of its powers.
This decision is another "fuck you" to the states in this republic. This case should have been turned down by the court. There is no mention of sodomy anywhere in the constitution. This is not a federal right. If the Texas legislature wants to have a sodomy law, this is up to the people of Texas. If the federal government wants to outlaw sodomy it is up to Congress to do this. The justices job is to protect and uphold the constitution. Not pervert the constitution by making policy and morality (immorality) decisions.
This will lead to a snowball of more gay agenda issues. Maybe even polygomy cases. Who knows. The public's tolerance for this garbage and "forced immorality by the state" is fading fast.
The Federal Government is out of control. States have almost no rights anymore other than to hand out traffic violations and collect taxes. State legislatures mean nothing anymore. Our representative democracy is virtually disappearing right before our eyes. The sycophants in Washington are out of control.
The Federal Government has now entered a dangerous point in history. Our system is broken. Representative democracy is a thing of the past. They are now in the business of usurping public morality and the religious convictions of much of the populace. There will be a point in the near future when the states and the people will have had enough.
It's decisions like this and the inevitable fallout that could sow the seeds for a second civil war. If shit like this keeps up I can easily see secession movements starting up in the future. It might be a good idea this time.
First of all this is really a privacy issue.
Secondly if states were allowed to do whatever they wanted to do, we would still have slavery, and later segregation.(Yes I got the second point from O'reilly, but it is a good analogy)
