Well, here's the thing. Lawrence rests on Roe. If SCOTUS overturns Roe outright, Lawrence falls. If Lawrence falls, then in several states with sodomy laws already on the books (because Republican legislators won't repeal them) those laws go back in force. Shoot, remember the story I wrote about the gay man in Idaho who's being prosecuted for failing to register as sex offender for a conviction under an unconstitutional sodomy law? That's an example of a state honoring a law they're barred from enforcing. Imagine what they'd do if the law were suddenly enforceable again.

The public won't even have a say, not that most straight couples swapping "illegal" blow jobs in bed would have to worry about it. People more on the fringes would get targeted, the way law enforcement tends to do these things.

Not everywhere. But I'd be a lot more wary of being gay in places like Idaho, I can tell you that. Or running any establishment where sex might be involved.
