“To hold that the act of homosexual sodomy is somehow protected … would be to cast aside millennia of moral teaching.” — Bowers v. Hardwick, 478 U.S. 186, 197 (1986) (Burger, C.J., concurring) “[The people bringing the case] are entitled to respect for their private lives. The State cannot demean their existence or control their destiny by making their private sexual conduct a crime.” — Lawrence v. Texas, 539 U.S. 558, 570 (2003)
