Is there a lot of incest going on? I don't remember ever hearing about adults charged with incest.

If kids are involved, this ruling is not applicable, as it's not consensual privacy.

Does anyone believe that even if this could be applied to incest, consensual adult incest would become a problem.

Really there is nothing to get excited about. The dirty legal secret of the Supreme Court is that nothing is absolute. There is no such thing as strict construction from any Justice, ever. It's really impossible to "strict construct" 18th Century intent into modern times. The Court form opinions that mirror the times.

That is why with both this decision and Roe, private, out of sight, consensual prostitution laws should be easily unconstitutional, but they won't be. The Court will find a rationale for the laws, because the American public will not now accept such acts being legal. The Court's decisions are full of hypocrisy.

The lawyers will find some who want to bring a case.

True in a sense. Of course it has been determined that kids can have abortion on their own so one has to wonder just how firm that line in the sand is. In other words they are too young to consent to sex but plenty old enough to consent to abort the results.

I can certainly see the State of Utah having a problem with multiple marriage cases and I certainly see the door opened to same sex marriages. At most, there will be a few incest cases designed to test the limits.
