You cited - Griswold v. Connecticut, 381 U.S. 479 (1965)

I think in the past 57 years since then, we as a people have become more informed about contraception, and we have a wide variety of birth control and contraception techniques to choose from.

It does show how desperate folks are, to go all the way back to 1965, a time before most of us were even born.

For 50 years we thought abortion was a legal right at the federal level. Look what happened to that. Never say never.

Why would anyone want the Federal Government to be involved in our sex lives? They have no business making a law regarding it.
