In a 1986 case called Bowers vs. Hardwick, the Supreme Court ruled that state laws against homosexual sodomy do not violate the Constitution. In a 2003 case called Lawrence vs. Texas, the court ruled that, on second thought, anti-sodomy laws do violate the Constitution. Liberal politicians cheered this rare and unexpected admission of error by the court. They did not express any alarm about the danger of overturning precedents. Plessy vs. Ferguson, upholding racial segregation, was a major precedent when the court overturned it and ended formal racial segregation with Brown vs. Board of Education in 1954. Liberals did not complain.
