Supreme Court jtice Anton Slia passed away his sleep yterday at the age of 79, endg a reer as perhaps the most overtly homophobic judge his thirty years on the bench, Slia stood firmly favor of bans on homosexual sex and opposed both marriage equaly and laws protectg LGBT people om urse, Slia once revealed "I have iends that I know, or very much spect, are homosexual. "In a New Yorker terview om 2013, gay right activist Richard Soris asked Slia what he thought his legacy on gay issu would be after he was gone. "Maybe the world is spng toward a wir acceptance of homosexual rights, and here’s Slia, standg athwart .

Here are seight thgs the late Anton Slia has said about gay people. Texas 2003, Slia argued the state's sodomy ban was nstutnal bee some people fd homosexualy immoral.

"Many Amerins do not want persons who openly engage homosexual nduct as partners their bs, as sutmasters for their children, as teachers their children's schools, or as boarrs their home, " he wrote. "Fortunately that was the dissentg opn and the Court led bans on homosexual sex were unnstutnal.

ANTON SLIA ROUTELY LED AGAST GAY RIGHTS. THOSE OPNS EXPLA HIS PHILOSOPHY.

Homosexualy is like v. Evans, om 1996, challenged Colorado's ban on anti-discrimatn laws protectg gay people.

Homosexualy is like btialy, ct and dg Lawrence, Slia admted the ban "undoubtedly impos nstrats on liberty. Homosexualy is like a speech to law stunts December, Slia sisted the urts shouldn't try to protect mori, bee no one knows what a mory is. Gay people uld have heterosexual sex if they wanted his dissent Romer, Slia suggted the solutn to a ban on gay sex was for gay people to jt start havg straight sex.

JTICE ANTON SLIA'S PROVOTIVE COMMENTS ON GAY ISSU

No one n have gay sex—not even straight people. "Men and women, heterosexuals and homosexuals, are all subject to [Texas’] prohibn of viate sexual terurse wh someone of the same sex.

The gay agenda has taken over the Supreme his Lawrence dissent, Slia clared that the high urt had "largely signed on to the so-lled homosexual agenda. "He warned that gay people are hard at work elimatg the "moral opprobrium" attached to homosexualy. Gay people make bad the urt took on the Defense of Marriage act 2013's Uned Stat v.

Hodg, Slia attacked the majory opn that marryg the person you love was a right shared by all Amerins, gay or straight. His many reflectns on homosexualy formed a notable part of his judicial legacy.

This story was published March 2013, as the urt prepared to hear historic gay rights s. ” Judgg by the thgs he has said urt or wrten his legal opns about gays and lbians, he don’t really mean .

Dpe Slia’s long public history of exprsg revulsn and ntempt for gays and lbians, on the subject of whether people of the same sex should be allowed to marry, he is among the ne people whose opns will really matter. Here are the lowlights of Slia’s anti-gay ments:. Texas, the se challengg a Texas law that crimalized homosexual sex, Slia me up wh a tastels analogy to illtrate the issue.

Let’s throw gay people jail bee some people don’t like them. In his dissent Lawrence, Slia argued that moral objectns to homosexualy were sufficient jtifitn for crimalizg gay sex. “Many Amerins do not want persons who openly engage homosexual nduct as partners their bs, as sutmasters for their children, as teachers their children’s schools, or as boarrs their home, ” he wrote.

Laws banng homosexual sex are like laws banng murr. Surely that is the only sort of ‘anim’ at issue here: moral disapproval of homosexual nduct[. Slia cid to take the “moral disapproval” argument up a notch his dissent Lawrence, wrg that the Texas ban on homosexual sex “unniably seeks to further the belief of s cizens that certa forms of sexual behavr are ‘immoral and unacceptable, '” like laws agast “fornitn, bigamy, adultery, adult ct, btialy, and obsceny.

Homosexual upl are like roommat.

“[Colorado’s ban] prohibs special treatment of homosexuals, and nothg more, ” Slia wrote. “[I]t would prevent the State or any municipaly om makg ath benef payments to the ‘life partner’ of a homosexual when do not make such payments to the long time roommate of a nonhomosexual employee. In one sectn, he plas that banng discrimatn based on sexual orientatn hirg amounts to grantg gays and lbians special treatment that Republins, adulterers, and Cubs haters don’t get.

Have gays and lbians tried NOT havg homosexual sex?

” But Slia poted out that gays and lbians uld jt have sex wh people of the oppose sex stead. “Men and women, heterosexuals and homosexuals, are all subject to [Texas’] prohibn of viate sexual terurse wh someone of the same sex.

Related: Anton Slia: The Supreme Court Jtice's Life PicturFunny or not, here are some of Slia's most ntroversial opns and most outrageo quot:On Gay Rights:From the pot that the Supreme Court first led favor of gay rights 1996, when the majory led that stat uld ban discrimatory acts agast gay people, Slia's opn on the subject had some crgg. But I had thought that one uld nsir certa nduct reprehensible — murr, for example, or polygamy, or celty to animals — and uld exhib even 'anim' toward such nduct, " Slia wrote his speakg at Prceton 2012, Slia was asked by a stunt why he would pare laws banng homosexualy wh laws agast murr. "If we nnot have moral feelgs agast homosexualy, n we have agast murr?

""I'm surprised you aren't persuad, " Slia told the stunt, who intifi as 2012, Slia said homosexualy should be illegal bee had been a crime for so long. For 200 years, was crimal every state, " he June, nearly two s after Slia wrote his first dissent on gay rights, the Supreme Court legalized gay marriage famolysuggted his dissent to "ask the neart hippie, " while argug that "Freedom of Intimacy is abridged rather than expand by marriage. Intertgly, he asked on several ocsns why the Court should not also protect pedophil sce they protected gays.
