Take your perverted bestiality crap to the back room, suhks. - Argue the issue or shut up:
- The state does not have the power to regulate consensual incest between adults.
- Never has had, never will.
Neither the Bill of Rights nor the specific practices of the States at the time of the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment marks the outer limits of the substantive sphere of liberty which the Fourteenth Amendment protects.
See U.S. Const., Amend. 9.
As the second Justice Harlan recognized:
"[T]he full scope of the liberty guaranteed by the Due Process Clause `cannot be found in or limited by the precise terms of the specific guarantees elsewhere provided in the Constitution.
This `liberty´ is not a series of isolated points pricked out in terms of the taking of property;
the freedom of speech, press, and religion;
the right to keep and bear arms;
the freedom from unreasonable searches and seizures;
the right to consensual incest;
and so on. It is a rational continuum which, broadly speaking, includes a freedom from all substantial arbitrary impositions and purposeless restraints, . . . and which also recognizes, what a reasonable and sensitive judgment must, that certain interests require particularly careful scrutiny of the state needs asserted to justify their abridgment."

Take your perverted bestiality crap to the back room, suhks. - Argue the issue or shut up: Now you see, here I just thought you werent a hypocrite pain and apparently I was wrong. And, since bestiality is SODOMY it certainly is part of the issue along with your logic of private consensual sex or are you going to regulate your blow up doll too? Since animals and your blow up doll are private property where does the state have the right to regulate what you do with them?
