They were technically illegal in many US states until 2003's Lawrence v. Texas decision.

I find I'm so excited that I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head. I think it's the excitement only a free man can feel. A free man at a start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain. I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope.

And that is why Pierre Trudeau (who introduced the reforms as justice minister) was our most beloved prime minister. TeddyR

I had to look up Lawrence vs. Texas before I could figure out what a Bl****b was.

If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?

     The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

It starts with "blow" and is usually rendered as two words. Got it yet?

Until 2003 oral sex between heterosexuals was still illegal in 4 states, between homosexuals in 14 states. Lawrence held that all state sodomy laws were unconstitutional.

When the American Civil War started, Confederate Robert E. Lee owned no slaves. Union general U.S. Grant did.

The Constitution of the Confederate States of America actually banned the slave trade.
