Precisely. And thus, there is no morally legal basis (say as opposed to a law against murder) for passing legislation against things that you merely do not like.
I do not like country music. Or leftists.
In our current system of government, I shouldn't be able to ban them.
Thank you for your reply. When I ask what the Court's authority is to dictate cultural traditions I am making a distinction between a Federal Court and a State legislature.
It seems to me that polygamy, sodomy and incest go far beyond one's personal taste in music. None of the former have ever been traditionally regarded as moral or legal in this country. At the same time, I am unaware of any traditional jurisprudence against country music.
It is just ironic to me that libertarians will praise a de-novo fiat from a virtual soviet triumvarate who presume to have the authority to dictate such cultural and moral decisions for the rest of us. This decision does not bother you because you happen to agree with it. But the power that they have abrogated to themselves will come back to bite you.
Cordially,
