That's the argument in a nutshell.. For all the complaining over this, it boils down to homosexuals wanting the Federal Government to give them "special" right's because of their sexual behavior.
Texas has said no, Vermont has said yes.. Rather than try to presuade the people to Texas through the democratic process, they want the SC to create a one size fits all law and then impose it on everyone, everywhere by force.
That's not Constitutional and it's not proper.
If Texas simply outlawed sodomy, this fight may have never ensued.
One last thing, how do citizens challenge what they believe to be unjust/unconstitutional laws?
Are individuals to be left without recourse in the face of the majority views?
Are we a nation built on the principles of individual rights, or are we governed by the will of the mob?
