<< No, Tex. The US Supreme Court can overturn convictions if the state law is unconstitutional. The police have nothing to do with this, as it is not up to them to determine the constitutionality of laws, only enforce them. The Texas State legislature, and Texas Supreme Court does. If they can't follow the Constitution, hopefully the US Supreme Court can. >>
Only if they argue that. If they argue this specific case based on the law, they dont stand a chance.
And I higly doubt if it ever goes to the Supreme Court it will be deemed unconstitutional. No where in the consitiution does it even come close to endorsing homosexual sexual behavior.
You may not like it, but thats fact. >>
Tex :::sigh::: A law is not automatically constitutional. The US Supreme Court has overturned countless state laws as unconstitutional, and can very well do so here.
No, there is no specific protection of homosexuals in the Constitution, but there IS a specific right to privacy, and the right to pursue happiness. Any law that regulates consentual sex between two adults violates these rights.
And, as a conservative, you know damn well that the constitution does not need to endorse a specific action to protect it. In fact, the Constitution endorces not one single action by an individual, only concepts. The Constitution only limits government, not the individual.
