Hell, Ol' Pat is probably rolling around on the floor and frothing at the mouth about now.

Who cares what Pat Buchanan is doing anyway, lol? Anyone who is that vehemently anti-gay is usually a closet case anyway.

"I can hardly credit that on a website called "Free Republic", that people would be having a serious discussion of what laws should govern bedroom conduct between consenting adults."

Why not? The government makes rulings on lots of behavior by 'consenting adults'. Some of a sexual nature, some of a substance abuse nature. I don't always like it, but lines must be drawn somewhere. Sooner or later someone will insist it is their fundamental right to engauge in behavior YOU find abhorant.

The SC just [created a right to child abuse or bestiality]. Maybe you haven’t been reading this thread?

You're the one not reading. Kennedy's opinion decisively shot down the notion that this hold sway over anything other than adult (human) consensual sex in private.

You're forgetting about Evolution vs. Creation too.

Also, strangely enough, it seems that most Atkins Diet threads turn into flame wars.

No, it’s fact. If they are against the government legislating morality, they are against the government banning pedophilia. You cannot escape that.

Nonsense.

Libertarians oppose government prohibition and control of the actions of consenting adults, which do not initiate force or fraud.

In other words, they suggest that peaceful, private, and consenting interactions between adults are none of the state's concern.

Clearly children (who do not possess the emotional or intellectual capacity necessary to even comprehend much less express consent to sexuality) CANNOT express consent.

Therefore ANYONE engaging a child in sexuality is acting WITHOUT the consent of the child, whether they pretend otherwise, or not.

Those who engage children in sex, should be hung by the neck until dead.

OWK, Libertrarian.

Have two children, each on separate sports teams. That'll pretty much consume most of it.

There are three kinds of flamewar threads that get this way. The War Between the States, The War on (some) Drugs, and Microsoft versus Linux.

No, four. Creation vs. evolution.

Five. Don't forget Atkins diet vs Low Fat diet threads.

Yeah, cause folks who have had great success with Atkins are incredulous that others either don't, or they have had success with other diets. Seems all those ketones go to their brain.

If you are in favor of this ruling you are in favor of pedophilia because you are saying that the government has no right to ban it.

This is crap. What part of the phrase "consenting adults" don't you understand?

Pedophilia is illegal,as it should be, because children cannot make an informed consent.

This ruling has nothing to do with under-age children, but instead deals with the PRIVATE behavior of consenting ADULTS.

You sound like a bad broken record, and your statement here is bogus.

A right exists regardless of whether, or not, it can be guaranteed by the govm't. Govm'ts role is to protect rights, but there can be no guarantees.

People get so jacked up about it because they are worried that someone, somewhere, is having a better time than they are.

I haven't seen any of these yet, but since my wife bought his book recently I might have to check on out.

A new category is about Staffordshire Terriers, aka Pit Bulls that seems to be gaining popularity.

Could we just get Kennedy to recuse himself from those cases?
