How many marriages break up because of adultery?

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?

So your one of these people who believes that the ninth Amendment allows people to do whatever that they want except that it denies them the ‘right to representation’ on laws. What a joke.

The 9th Amendment proves that the ‘We the People’ have the ‘right to representation on issues not that you can deny the People that right.

I'm under a time crunch here, so I'll make some quick points.

#1 The 9th Amendment does not protect the rights of incest, adultery, sodomy, etc.

#2 No, I wouldn't vote to make adultery or sodomy illegal, but I and other voters have the right to make those decisions—not unelected, black-robed tyrants.

#3 I think you have an idealized view of liberty that ipso facto does not work, because homosexual sodomy was ruled a constitutionally protected act in 2003 (Lawrence v Texas). In the real world, it doesn't stop at the bedroom door.
