Certainly there is a long term precedent for sodomy laws. While precedent is a major factor in law, it shouldn't be the only factor.

The irritating thing about Roe v. Wade is that it elevated the mother's right to privacy above the child's right to life. That seems nonsensical on the face of it. As well as whimsical.

Today's ruling does overturn long term precedents.
