The matter under discussion isn't about what John or I believe are the ethics of regulating what consenting adults may do, but rather what the law IS. I frankly don't give a flying tutu what anybody does in their bedroom, and really don't want to hear about it! ;)

The court has decided that the states may regulate out of marriage sexual acts. That is, that there is no protected privacy right to non-heterosexual, non-marriage sex. That's the case law in a nutshell, as was very well summarized in the piece by the Princeton law prof. The whole deal is John thinks Rick Santorum is a bigoted homophobe because he paraphrased the substantive legal issue, and everyone with an axe wanted it ground on him. I continue to beat myself against the Rock of John in hopes he may, for once, change his opinion.
