Yes, it would have been much better to leave this law on their books. It would remain as a societal censure against homosexual behavior, even if unenforceable. The law was hardly enforceable anyway. But it said that homosexuality is WRONG.
The result of this law being remove will be that the most radical activists will take this as their cue that homosexuality must now be AFFIRMED in the public square, by the state. They will use every resource by the profligate federal government to FORCE homosexual curriculum in schools, in workplace rules, and in state and local governments.
Remember the rule of moral anarchists: "That which is not forbidden shall be mandatory."
Well, I agree with you about the act itself...but I am more ambivalent on what you say the effects are of keeping it, not keeping it. I think the cue about the public square was given a long time ago. I see this as a yawner, and a waste of their time and treasure.
I'm so sick of politicians bending over (No pun intended) to every whim of these perverts.
And to think that only 2% of our population are fagots and dykes; yet they get the red carpet treatment from these A$$wipe politicians. Pfft!
