04 Oct Justice Clarence Thomas
- Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas said landmark high court rulings that established gay rights and contraception rights should be reconsidered now that the federal right to abortion has been revoked.
- Thomas wrote that those rulings “were demonstrably erroneous decisions.”
- The cases he cited are Griswold vs. Connecticut, in which the Supreme Court said married couples have the right to obtain contraceptives; Lawerence v. Texas, which established the right to engage in private sexual acts; and Obergefell v. Hodges, which said there is a right to same-sex marriage.
- One can only wonder why Justice Thomas did not challenge, the Supreme Court unanimous decision in the Lovings’ favor and overturned their convictions in June 1967
