" I guess we can't enforce any morality "

Nope. It's America, supposedly the land of freedom. That means the freedom to do whatever you choose, as long as it's not illegal and doesn't impede life, liberty, or pursuit of happiness.

The Founders would be surprised at your statement. Homosexuality and obscenity were illegal at America's founding. Are you trying to say America wasn't free until some judges discovered "rights" that had never been recognized in our nation's history?

And your own definition of what's not part of "freedom to do whatever you choose" is illegality. Until Goodridge, it was illegal for gays to marry.

America was never intended to be a libertarian nation. The Fonders recognized that it had to be a nation of moral people in order for the Republic to work.
