A one-time foe takes on ‘religious liberty’ bills for gay-rights group

A one-time foe takes on ‘religious liberty’ bills for gay-rights group | Political Insider blog

Jim Galloway reports for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that former Georgia Attorney General Michael Bowers is fighting two “religious liberty” bills that would codify the right to discriminate against gays and lesbians. What makes his opposition notable is that in the 1980s, Bowers defended Georgia’s anti-sodomy laws — and the arrest of two men for consensual sex behind closed doors — all the way to the Supreme Court in a landmark case called Bowers v. Hardwick.
