I thought the Supreme Court threw out the Texas anti-sodomy law in the famous Texas Sodomy Trial some years ago. Since when has Oregon had such a law and what are its implications here?

Brooker Wed, 20 Oct 2010 05:05:10 +0000 http://cascadiajournal.com/?p=751#comment-912 This is but yet another attempt to deny equal protection under the law, under the Constitution and further negate the concept of due process. It's decidedly a "feel good" response to a tragic event, nonetheless a measure that has not been well-conceived . . . as with almost all law enacted post 9/11, we continue to see our civil liberties disappear through legal errosion. Didn't George Bush Jr. exclaim that terrorism would never force America to change its way of life? Short-sighted laws like Res. No. 4220 show exactly the opposite has happened, and the phenomenon will continue unabated as long someone, somewhere, can find any excuse to cut just another few branches off our liberty tree.

You put down into writing what I also mull around in my head - every time I read, or hear, an anti-Muslim comment.

World War 2 started in September 1939, not 1941. The US entered the war in 1941, but it was already a world-wide conflict before then. I realize this is nitpicking, but I feel like I have to say it.

Please carry on the good work - the more people know the better they'll be outfitted to deal with the tax man, and that's what it's all about.
