How many marriages break up because of adultery? I suppose you think voters should have zero interest in divorce and one of its primary causes.

Diseases like AIDS and hepatitis? I guess you think voters have no right to be concerned about the spread of diseases into their blood or food supplies.

Children of single mothers being raised by the state? Again, no voter interest there either.

Prostitutes plying their trade in front of businesses or homes? Better not regulate that, ‘cause it only involves transactions between consenting adults.

Again, show me in the US Constitution where the right of consenting adults to do whatever they want is enshrined. It isn’t there, and VOTERS have not only the legal right but the moral authority to set standards for their communities.

Lots. Do you want to criminalize adultery and toss every one who commits it into prison?

Diseases like AIDS and hepatitis?

What about far more common and just as deadly diseases like influenza and pnuemonia? Do you want to toss people who don't wash their hands or cover their mouths when they sneeze into prison?

Children of single mothers being raised by the state?

Why is the State in the business of raising children? That's the problem. Those morons f*** up everything they touch. The last thing they should be doing is raising kids.

Prostitutes plying their trade in front of businesses or homes?

It's called "zoning" and it's a local Government function, not the State's.

Again, show me in the US Constitution where the right of consenting adults to do whatever they want is enshrined.

Why it's right there in Amendment the 9th:

The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

Any other questions?
