Thought For The Day

"I can only hope that the court soon will reconsider its analysis and conclude that depriving individuals of the right to choose for themselves how to conduct their intimate relationships poses a far greater threat to the values most deeply rooted in our nation's history than tolerance of nonconformity could ever do." -- Supreme Court Justice Harry A. Blackmun (1900-1999), from his dissenting opinions in Bowers v. Hardwick, the ruling that upheld Georgia's sodomy law.

The Bowers v. Hardwick decision was overturned last year by the Lawrence v. Texas decision.
