The law against heterosexual deviant sexual intercourse was changed over 20 years ago. It was done in the legislature; not in an activist court.
The homosexual agenda could have been fought by going to the legislature. Many people say that this was a goofy law. Few tried to overturn it and prove that it was an unwelcome law.
This is counter to a previous supreme court ruling. No further constitutional ammendments have been passed. What has changed?

"The homosexual agenda could have been fought by going to the legislature."The law was challenged on the basis on an arrest and fine imposed on two men "caught in the act".
It worked its way through the courts until reaching the Supreme Court.
Texas at any time could have changed the law, it chose not to, instead it chose to defend it.

What has changed is that it is easier to achieve political victories through the Supreme bozos than through the vote.
Texans still know what's right and wrong--it took the Supremes to impose their imbecility on Texas.
BTW--Texas could choose to ignore the Supremes and continue enforcing the law, and if Bush had any cojones, it would be a lot of fun to watch.
