Probably like 95% of sodomy laws were used to prosecute gay men who were doing bad shit like fucking in public restrooms, "rest stops" or other public "cruising" locations. Gay men were a plague with this shit, and it was still happening as of 10-15 years ago afaik based on what a prosecutor told me. Idk if it happens now but I don't see why it would have stopped. It's just harder to prosecute now.
Even in the case that got the laws all overturned, which was based on private sex, the only consequence was a fine:
In 1998, John Geddes Lawrence Jr., an older white man, was arrested along with Tyron Garner, a younger black man, at Lawrence's apartment in Harris County, Texas. Garner's former boyfriend had called the police, claiming that there was a man with a weapon in the apartment. Sheriff's deputies said they found the men engaging in sexual intercourse. Lawrence and Garner were charged with a misdemeanor under Texas' anti-sodomy law; both pleaded no contest and received a fine.
There are some public locations where faggotry is a serious nuisance that drives away families. Parents don't want to take their kids to a beach or a park if the kid is going to get exposed to seeing buttfucking. So what happens is faggots effectively take over these locations and turn them into "cruising" spots, and feel very proud of themselves for having taken the spot over. We need cops and laws to drive them out and force them to keep their shit behind closed doors where it belongs.
While lewd conduct complaints have dropped dramatically in recent years, Neiman said stings have been used to shut down persistent hotspots for gay cruising and lewd acts 11 times since 2014. Complaints often come from people concerned about sex acts in public places, namely libraries and residential streets, where children could stumble upon people engaged in a lewd act, Neiman said.
Last month, a Los Angeles County judge threw out the charges in one case stemming from Long Beach's 2014 operation, saying police were discriminating against gay men. Many law enforcement agencies have stopped in response to lawsuits or after political backlash. The Times contacted police officials in San Jose, Anaheim, Glendale, San Francisco, Bakersfield, Beverly Hills and Laguna Beach, among other agencies. Representatives for each said their departments had not used such undercover stings in years.
The focus on children is a mistake. Why should ANYONE have to see people having sex in public? I’m not a child, but that doesn’t magically make it okay for two dudes to buttfuck each other outside my local library. You can get fired for giving a female coworker a confused compliment. You can be arrested for offensive tweets in some western countries. But randomly encountering a literal gay piss orgy is just part and parcel?
Yeah I often point that out myself. I do not care to see you having sex. Just like I'll tell people irl life that I do not care to hear explicit details of their sex lives
I edited with an article explaining that gay takeovers of public places for sexual purposes is still going on. Police are just not enforcing the law anymore because of gay activism fighting for their "right" to fuck each other in public.

Yeah I looked it up, 2016 article: https://archive.ph/LBR60

Other states had more severe punishments, like Georgia's law which was correctly upheld in Bowers vs. Hardwick:
But the consequence is also a criminal record, possible loss of jobs, housing, etc.
Preferably keep not just the sexual activity, but also the talk, promotion and recrutiing of it.
