Basically I'm saying your argument of "you don't get to impose your morality or ethics on others" is pretty weak. Because within the limits of the Constitution the majority seems to do a pretty effective job of pushing their morality/ethics on others who don't necessarily agree.


Technically, the Constitution does not bend to the whims of the majority. Otherwise, you're correct in that laws do effectively enforce morality and ethics on the population. There's not "mind your own business" there at all.
