As I understand it, before Obergefell vs Hodges, most states listed sodomy (deviate sexual intercourse with a man, a woman, or an animal) in their criminal statutes. And as I understand it,it was never enforced by barging into people's homes or trying to regulate what they did in bed. It was enforced only when there were third-party complaints based on public decency or public order (gays using public parks, rest stops, or toilets as copulatory fun venues.)

BTW, the arrest in Obergefell was a scam, as I understand it (can't find the link.) The cops were called in for supposedly a break-in or robbery, entered the premises, and found Obergefll and his matey in bed doing their thing. They practically demanded to be arrested: the police were prepared to leave without arrest.

Obergefell made the "break-in" call. It was a set-up to test the law.

(If anyone has a link on this, I'd be much obliged.)

Oh and yes, BTW, people ar still arrested for sodomy (the legal definiton, oral or anal sex) with animals. And If there is a sexual assault of any kind, anal sodomy can =---- I think --- be considered as more "aggravated" than other kinds of copulatory behavior.

I do consider hetero sodomy to be perverse, but again I would not criminalize it unless there were a violation of public order or decency.

My preference would be to move more aggressively against porn and also against the mainstreaming of deviate sex, very much including so-called sex education which as of now is hardly distinguishable from grooming, or what used to be rightly criminalized as "corrupting the morals of a minor."

9I think you are thinking of Lawrence vs. Texas, not Obergefell.

I think you’re right. That was Lawrence vs Texas.

Sorry -— my error.

Would you happen to have a link to a source showing how Lawrence set that up?

While most of the world moves forward into the la la land of "make believe", Bermuda just took a big step back into REALITY.

There, I corrected their misleading opening line.

Not good enough. “Domestic partnerships” are always used as a political wedge to attack marriage. Fake marriage WILL be legal again soon there.

It’s either a full repudiation, or the sodomites win.

Big steps back are life saving when you are teetering on the brink of a thousand foot precipice.

While most of the world moves forward...

What a bunch of utter propagandists. The number of countries which recognize this new fake version of "marriage" is a small fraction of all the countries in the world, and a tiny portion of the world population.

They should make sure homosexual partnerships have the exact same rights as biblical marriage. Else some homosexual agenda-ed judge will do away with the law.
If they grant homosexual mirages all the same rights, homosexuals can complain all they want about “equality,” but I’m hoping there’s nothing they can do. Best part is it will set an example for the rest of the world that’s being pressured about anti-biblical marriage.

It is “someone else’s business” when society pays for the research and funds medical costs for HIV, AIDS, and many other devastating diseases and suicides that occur when same sex partners choose to act out their behaviors behind their closed doors.

I absolutely remember reading that the arrest that triggered the pro-gay Lawrence vs Texas decision was a clear set-up case put together by homosexual activists, and I can't find the links on Google. I suspect Google has removed the links or moved them way down on the bottom of the results pile.

The only thing I could find was this:

https://www.amazon.com/Sex-Appealed-Supreme-Court-Fooled/dp/194013028X

Judge Janice Law argues that the whole case was fraudulently based on this pre-arranged arrest. I even looked up Judge Janice Law and found only one (ONE!) live link to anything mentioning her book, the above Amazon listing. I KNOW it was reviewed multiple times when it was published, and those reviews ought to be online but they aren't.

This really burns me.

They are confusing a step back with a step forward.
Attempting to destroy marriage and change the definition of it is a huge step back for all of humanity. Trying to go back to normal is a good thing.
