А судьи кто

tijd.livejournal.comВ далеком 1986 на телемосту между Ленинградом и Бостоном прозвучала сакральная фраза «в СССР секса нет» (в оригинале «секса у нас нет, и мы категорически против этого»).
В том же году в Далласе Рон Вудруф, за исполнение роли которого Мэттью Макконахи получит в 2014 Оскара, был диагностирован как носитель ВИЧ.
В том же году в Нью-Йорке от СПИДа умирает ментор Трампа Рой Кон, тайный гомосексуалист и публичный гомофоб.
Cohn was a particularly nasty homosexual. He was often a favored guest at the ranch of multimillionaire Shearn Moody, who readily provided, we learn, "many little boys of the night" to guests who desired them. The story is that one night Cohn desired a boy who turned out to have warts on his penis, but Cohn said, "Oh well, I don't care." And the first thing you know, Cohn had "venereal warts on his anus."
Cohn's appetite for sex was hearty, to say the least. One of his longtime lovers told von Hoffman, "The joke was five a night at a hundred a pop. Roy was incredibly promiscuous." Another said, "Roy had to have sex every night, and no matter what the cost…he would have someone there. If it wasn't me, it was Peter, Dirk, a guy named Bill who did porno movies….no matter what, he had to have it every night. And then he would beat off afterward to pornography…I think for all the times he liked to be on the top so much, he loved being on the bottom."

В том же году Верховный Суд голосованием 5 на 4 в деле Bowers v. Hardwick признает конституционным «антисодомный» закон штата Джорджия, который делает уголовным преступлением оральный и анальный секс, даже если он происходит за закрытыми дверями между взрослыми людьми и по взаимному согласию.
Обосновывая это решение, Главный Судья Уоррен Бергер (один из четырёх верховных судей, назначенных Никсоном) пишет:
I join the Court's opinion, but I write separately to underscore my view that, in constitutional terms, there is no such thing as a fundamental right to commit homosexual sodomy. <...> Condemnation of those practices is firmly rooted in Judeo-Christian moral and ethical standards. <...> Blackstone described "the infamous crime against nature" as an offense of "deeper malignity" than rape, a heinous act "the very mention of which is a disgrace to human nature," and "a crime not fit to be named." <...> To hold that the act of homosexual sodomy is somehow protected as a fundamental right would be to cast aside millennia of moral teaching. <...> This is essentially not a question of personal "preferences," but rather of the legislative authority of the State. I find nothing in the Constitution depriving a State of the power to enact the statute challenged here.
