Nonsense.
Homosexuality is an expression of individual liberty, protected from government interference by the Fifth Amendments Liberty Clause, where whether it manifest as a consequence of nature or choice is legally and Constitutionally irrelevant (Lawrence v. Texas (2003)).
in other words it's a so-called 'right' found between the lines by some pin-headed black robes...
Incorrect.
The right to individual liberty has always existed, since before the advent of the Republic, codified by the Constitution as intended by the Framers, where the courts acknowledge this fact when invalidating measures offensive to the right to individual liberty.
As Justice Kennedy accurately explained in Lawrence:
Had those who drew and ratified the Due Process Clauses of the Fifth Amendment or the Fourteenth Amendment known the components of liberty in its manifold possibilities, they might have been more specific. They did not presume to have this insight. They knew times can blind us to certain truths and later generations can see that laws once thought necessary and proper in fact serve only to oppress. As the Constitution endures, persons in every generation can invoke its principles in their own search for greater freedom.
LAWRENCE V. TEXAS
yup Lawrence threw open the doors to all kinds of perversion....certain truths are being ignored alright...
why is it the 'great legal minds' didn't foresee all the problems that have come from legalizing abortion...?
