    Generally I agree, though it depends a little bit. If the local populace strongly feels sodomy should be illegal, then they have the right to have that law. The DA should then enforce it.

    Fair point though.

      I couldn’t disagree more with that. That’s the kind of thinking that results in the perpetuation of all kinds of racist and bigoted laws that strip people of their personal freedoms.

        I agree, it is. I believe that our rights come from the people, though, and it is ultimately people that are responsible for choosing and upholding them. This is why we can amend our constitution.
