[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1514234, member: 14585"] In 1986 the Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that in granting liberty, the U.S. constitution does not confer "a fundamental right to engage in homosexual activity." The 4 dissenting cited invasion of privacy. Sandra Day O'Connor was the swing vote in upholding the ruling. In 2003 the Supreme Court did something rare and interesting by overturning the 1986 ruling (6-3) which opened the door in 2015 for the Supreme Court to rule 5-4 that same sex marriage is a fundamental right under the U.S. constitution. Justice Kennedy was the swing vote ruling in favor of same-sex marriage. [/QUOTE]
