Blech. Scalia should be pitied and despised for his views regarding homosexuality, though I fall short of advocating hate. I mean...ok, he said:
"I would no more require a State to criminalize homosexual acts--or, for that matter, display any moral disapprobation of them--than I would forbid it to do so."
Let's change a phrase.
"I would no more require a State to criminalize slavery--or, for that matter, display any moral disapprobation of them--than I would forbid it to do so."
Sodomy laws are an outrageous intrusion of the government into the right of individuals to have control over their own bodies. Obviously, it is not as bad as slavery, but in a far more limited sense, it is analogous.
