no - legislators are obligated to protect the rights of individuals.
if we're going by moral obligation, who's morals are we going by? Mine (I'm an uptight prude) someone else's who's less uptight? Doesn't that become a slipperly slope at some point, if we start legislating on what is morally right or not?
