Re Reason #1: So because of the socialist structure that has been put into place, we should be able to limit people's freedoms so that we can save money? Woohoo, O lover of liberty.


Re Reason #2: Ah, so even if your "theory" was correct do you propose that we incriminate activity just because it COULD lead somewhere illegal? So the whole idea of protecting people's rights gets thrown out the window and we instill a new standard of law which incriminates ANYTHING that could be perceived as something that could lead to illegal activity?

Re:Reason#1 Absolutely, we do it all the time. I.E. Speed Limits, seatbelts, motorcycle helmets, health department codes, building codes, food inspectors, etc.

Re:Reason#2 Absolutely, we do it all the time.
We have a ton of laws designed to prevent illegal activity that you could argue infringes on people's liberties or imposes some burden. Sometimes we go overboard. This is not one of those times.

And since sodomy was never a "right" to begin with. I say protect the innocents from the sodomizers.
