Then why, Mr. Jones, was gay marraige banned in states with identical laws to California's Prop 8 allowed to stand while just California pretends it is legal there in spite of the consensus that said it was not? Please direct me to quotes from either the Prop 8 or DOMA Opinions where the Court said "gay marriage may not be banned in any of the 50 states"? Where in either of those Opinions did the Court say that gay marriage was a constitutional right never to be denied by any state? Or did they leave that up to each sovereign state to decide on their own? And as we know that is the case, how can California be the only exception?New York acted in a manner consistent with the Constitution, by acknowledging the equal protection rights of same-sex couples, unlike California.
No state's anti gay marriage law has been ruled on by the SCOTUS as of yet. Why don't you understand that?
