ACLU Defending Larry Craig's Bathroom Antics

A bit of a stretch here, no?
ST. PAUL, Minn. - In an effort to help Sen. Larry Craig, the American Civil Liberties Union is arguing that people who have sex in public bathrooms have an expectation of privacy.

Craig, of Idaho, is asking the Minnesota Court of Appeals to let him withdraw his guilty plea to disorderly conduct stemming from a bathroom sex sting at the Minneapolis airport.

The ACLU filed a brief Tuesday supporting Craig. It cited a Minnesota Supreme Court ruling 38 years ago that found that people who have sex in closed stalls in public restrooms "have a reasonable expectation of privacy."
Seriously, how much privacy are you entitled to in an airport bathroom?

OK, you have a door to the stall. That's to shield you while you do the deuce.

Outside of that, I don't see where you you have any reasonable guarantee of privacy to engage in gay sex.

Besides, most of the public doesn't want to be subjected to this.

What don't they understand?
