In fact, he can't think of many outrageous laws the states could come up with that he'd rule unconstitutional-- turning us into a banana republic.
Yeah, Scalia and that tyrant Thomas Jefferson who had the unmittigated GALL to sign a bill into law punishing sodomy with castration. It's a good thing we've moved beyond what our idiot Founding Fathers had in mind...

I admire Thomas Jefferson greatly, but in this case I think it's safe to say he was a crackpot. Did said bill include hetero sodomy, as does the law in my state?

If you believe everything the Founders did or said was holy and sacred and perfect, then we disagree.
