As we bag on Radar for believing that individuals have inalienable "natural" rights
     Er, actualy I think most people were bagging on him for acting like he was the one that decided what our "inalienable natural rights" are. I know I'm splitting hairs but I think the distiction is important.
     The subject of this thread is a good example. Why the hell does the goverment care what people do in their bedrooms? Oh, because it will lead to general badness in the world. Of course! How could I have missed that?
     Seriously though, this is a case of goverment overstepping. Fortunately a lot of legislators agree that it's not their place. So, however slowly, this kind of law is being removed from state after state. If you clic on the link telling about what state sodomy laws are in place you'll notice several have been repealed. I think it's a trend.
