The law isn’t always right and certainly isn’t equal to morality. Why is it the state’s fucking business what people put into their own bodies or do in the bedroom? It wasn’t too long ago (within living memory, even) that same-sex and interracial relationships were illegal in many parts of the “land of the free.” Same-sex intercourse was illegal in CA until the 1970s. Pot was illegal even in California until the mid 2010s. Are you saying that the people arrested, jailed, fined, and forced into treatment for those heinous “crimes” got what they deserved?
To your other post: San Francisco used to have a vibrant art and music scene that was largely priced out of the city starting in the late 1990s. If the city ends up a bit more balanced vs being a bedroom community for 20-somethings working in Cupertino and San Jose, maybe it will be a better place for it.
