When the Supreme Court rendered its Lawrence opinion, every U.S. Congressmen from the state of Texas should have issued an Indictment of Impeachment to have the Supreme Court Justices, responsible for such an abomination, to be kicked off the bench for sexual deviant behavior under Article III Section. I of the Constitution. Across the nation reprobate federal judges sit on the bench at the behest of our U.S. Congressmen and U.S. Senators.

In the last fifty years or so, I really only see one SCOTUS judge who even warrants consideration for impeachment: Clarence Thomas. He never says anything, never participates, and has sat on multiple cases where he really should have recused himself.
Click the link and read the whole article. This quote honestly isn't even that offensive compared to some of the other shit he is saying. I mean, the article is actually entitled "Put Homosexuals to the Sword.", holy fuck.
Time for a Constitution lesson for the fundies out there; the US Supreme Court hasn't done anything contrary to the "hold their Offices during good Behavior..." by ruling against the Texas Sodomy laws in Lawrence v. Texas. The Court, having jurisdiction over any and all laws, amongst other things, within the United States, did their job. Fundamentalists, read Article III section II.
Its a good thing then that the USA has a supreme court that supports the rule of law , rather than religous doctrine and the constitution provides freedom of religion.
That means that Christians dont get to make the rules.
By the way, when did you last stone an adulterer or fornicator to death , as God also commands, or an eater of shellfish or wearer of mixed fibres ?
Who has sex with whom has never been any business of the state. Simply because your favorite book of fairy tales (aka the Bible) tells you that your god feels homosexuality (actually only guy on guy sex, he says nothing about girl on girl) is an abomination means fuck-all to a secular nation.
The decision was a sound one. Texas politicians are by and large assholes.
". . . federal judges sit on the bench at the behest of our U.S. Congressmen and U.S. Senators."
That's a bit misleading. They may be voted into these positions after a Presidential nomination, but they do no serve at the whims of Congress. And since those elected officials know how the process works, if they don't like the results, they should just STFU about it.
" every U.S. Congressmen from the state of Texas should have issued an Indictment of Impeachment to have the Supreme Court Justices, responsible for such an abomination,"
Bigots tried that after the Brown decision 50 years ago. It won't work any better for you.
Ah, if wishes were currency little Jimmy, you'd be homeless and starving.
Reality doesn't work that way, pal. Deal with it.
Confused?
