I intentionally added "constitutional".

Yes, and you won't get much argument that a state *can* pass a law like this. The question is, *should* they? It appears that you think it's just fine for a state to regulate the private sex lives of consenting adults. This does not put you on the side of individual freedom and limited government.

"you think it's just fine for a state to regulate the private sex lives of consenting adults."

WHAT?? Where did you come up with this little ditty? One, this isn't about me, this is about the people of the state of Mississippi and what they want. Two, who's regulating the "private sex lives of consenting adults"? The law bans the public sales of certain products. Period.

"This does not put you on the side of individual freedom and limited government."

Is that what you call it? Individual freedom? I can almost hear the patriotic music in the background.

Well, it appears that the citizens of the state of Mississippi call it selfish, self-centered, individualistic, immoral, and hedonistic behavior that goes against the way they wish to live.

How dare they decide how they want to live!
