My beef is not with SCOTUS. Nor with the state. My beef is with the voters, with poor cause, IMO, enacting legislation that violates private property. Remember, SCOTUS, acting as the Federal Court, can overturn any state law deemend unconstitutional. Just because voters in this state are allowed to enact poor legislation doesn't mean they should do it.

Your post brought to mind a very sobering thought. SCOTUS ruled that a State can not infringe upon an individuals rights to perform some sex acts. Yet, some posters use the SCOTUS as the end all and be all with regards to private property rights being surrendered to the States.
Heck, if we can ban smoking that must be constitutional, goodness knows that that eviiiiil activity should be banned anyway!
