Don't tell me you believe that any right not explicitly listed in the Constitution does not exist?

Of course not. Do you know what types of unenumerated rights actually do exist?

Unalienable rights.

And if you read ALL of Thomas Jefferson's writings, you'd see he had some bizarre ideas about how to cure homosexuals. Uh, you really want to take him up on those 'treatments'(some would call it torture?)

Doesn't matter, since the relevant point is that he clearly didn't believe that there is an unalienable right to buggery.

On what basis do you believe that there is?

On the basis that you don't own me, nor does the State own me.

If the actions I take are objectionable to you, that is not foundation for imprisoning me or sanctioning the use of my sovereignty over my person. I feel the same way about any act that does not directly violate your rights.

These laws are not only stupid, but they were wrongfully applied in the Lawrence case. No one was really arrested for that crime, but the JBT who was there for something else, decided to arrest them for something.

Let me ask you, does sodomy of any kind(hetero,homo,oral,anal) violate your rights when conducted out-of-sight and between competent adults?
