Supreme Court Texas Sodomy Ruling
The Supreme Court today ruled that the sodomy laws (read as "anti-homosexual legislation") in Texas be repealed. Prior to this, homosexuals were basically treated as criminals. Its funny to watch a bunch of bible-thumping moronic Texans on TV calling the ruling a religious slap in the face. Since when did homosexuality have anything to do with Christianity? There's nothing in the bible that says anything remotely close to homosexuality being wrong.
My personal opinion on this whole thing is that I feel gays should have the same rights as anyone else. They are Americans too (and are free to do as they please, so long as they do nothing to harm me). They aren't a threat to anyone.
To make a long story short...GOOD. More Civil Rights to a long oppressed group.
