17. Lawrence v. Texas: The case that "pushed me to the left"!
Scalia is apparently uncomfortable with others knowing whether or not he sodomizes his wife, yet thinks it is okay for consenting adults to be THROWN IN JAIL for what they do in the bedroom! Anybody who supports "sodomy laws" has no place in any position of authority, especially the Supreme Court.

I still remember hearing that the "sodomy laws" had been overturned, and how glad I was. Then, I heard Scalia's dissent where he talked about a "culture war." I heard that three Justices dissented: Scalia, Thomas, and Renquist. The right-wing three! Next, I heard right-wing activists and talk show hosts expressing outrage that consenting adults could no longer be thrown in jail for sodomy. They came out against the right to privacy. What kind of sick minds would be against protecting privacy rights? They exposed themselves for what they truly are that day, and I have been opposed to the right wing ever since!

Here are some links that the right-wing hates!
