Sounds about right. Sodomy laws are pointlessly unenforcable in the first place. Anything that takes the federal government out of our private lives is fine by me.

Sounds good to me. And no, I am not a homo-loving libertine. I hate their political agenda and oppose it where I can. I am not much in favor of their social agenda either. But I cannot support the government banning behaviour between consenting adults. And yes, add in all the loony consenting behaviour that you will ("oh yeah? Well what about people who want to stick breadsticks in each others eyes to pop their eyeballs out, what about that? Huh? HUH?"), I'd say people have a right to it.

Fools both. Read Scalia's dissent; read Kennedy's decision. Your comments show that do not understand the stakes of the game being played. This is not a libertarian decision--it is a pro-homosexual, pro-Leftist agenda decision. And when they're done inventing a constitutional right to homosexual marriage, they'll move against other "antiquated" rules on sexual matters, like those barring sexual congress with your children.

Wake the f!@#$ up.

Actually this case puts the federal government in your lives. The Court inserting the federal gov't into a matter which should have been up for the people of texas to decide. This decision weakens the ability of a state to govern itself.

As Scalia warns, and warns mightily, in his dissent, this ruling stikes down many more than just sodomy laws. There is now a claim to be made by the majority's theories that all laws outlawing any forms of sex are defunct.

But beyond that warning of Justice Scalia's, what would stop it there. A anarchy of Liberty is King today. No laws may restrict personal behaviour carried on in private, or even kept "discrete" in public.

As I read it ...

All private Gambling of all forms has just been made legal.

The Drug laws -- excluding of public intoxication -- all struck down.

Prostitution -- as long as keep discrete in public, or in private -- legal in fifty states and all territories.

Bigamy? OKAY!

GROUP Marriage? LEGAL!

Incest between adults? The Supremes have spake: "Go to it!"

The terms of copyright and patent have just been set to Zero days -- as long as one keeps it private.

Dude, that just inserted the feds into our lives, here in Texas. The SC overturned a state law that was perfectly okay by the majority of us Texans. Now, we must observe nine federal men's opinion.
