Indeed. Mark my words: This decision will be used by NAMBLA and other child molestors and child pornographers to challenge bans on sexual abuse of children.

A question for all who contend that this decision sends us into the cesspool:

This was a law that was almost never enforced. For what reason is it critical to have persons committing sodomy subject to a criminal law that is not enforced? Is it critical to have it on the books if it is not used to control conduct?

Is there not a detrimental effect to having unenforced laws on the books, i.e. respect for law, certainty of punishment, etc.?
