Finally, some good news from the Supreme Court: Lawrence v Texas was
decided
in favour of overturning Texas' anti-gay sodomy law. The majority opinion
is based on a right to privacy; I didn't think that argument would fly
federally. "The state cannot demean their existence or control their
destiny by making their private sexual conduct a crime".
Scalia's minority report shows he's still hateful:
"The court has largely signed on to the so-called homosexual agenda,"
Scalia wrote for the three. He took the unusual step of reading his
dissent from the bench.
I don't care if he likes me so long as I have equal protection.
"The court has taken sides in the culture war," Scalia said, adding that he has "nothing against homosexuals." |
