Keep govt out of the private lives of adult citizens. As long the perps aren't breaking the law (like cooking meth for e.g.), its none of the Govt's business.

So you think that American citizens have a constitutional right to prostitutes, group sex, and sodomy, then?

Government has no bussines legislating people's sexual preferences. As long as its in private, and consensual, I could care less what they do. It's a free country.

Prostitution is another matter.

Oh, I see where this is going. If it is not constitutionally protected, we should ban it! Then maybe I should start a ballot drive in my state to ban cars, since there is no right to "bear vehicles" Anyone live in NC, I could really use your signature!

No.
But Americans do have a constitutional right to the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness. Which is why i stressed on the word 'adult'. The govt is not in the business of legislating morality. You only make criminals of otherwise law abiding people then, and create an underground black market. Recall the booze-prohibition that gave rise to organised racketeering in alchohol back in the 30s?
Nevertheless, some substances are outright evil- crack comes to mind for e.g. and must be banned. But sex is not evil, in itself.

You want to make oral sex illegal?
