you always had equal rights honey, now you are biting off more than you can chew.
Those benefits include divorce and being in a relationship with someone that doesn't pull their weight.
Not pulling their weight will not mean a damned in divorce court either.
Be careful what you ask for, you just might get it.
Run for the hills you fools
Simply not true.
And I would hate to think you are making some kind of veiled threat towards gay couples. I'm sure you aren't, right?
What the hell is wrong with you? Are you actually afraid of someone injuring you? Bullshit. The days of "rolling fags" are long over.
However, if you are implying that this ruling means that someone won't knock you on your ass for being stupid, then you are an idiot.
good.I hope it does...I would love nothing more than the country to split into chunks...balkanization.
"hate based"? Bill Clinton PUSHED for the legislation.
You might want to recheck that one.
On Friday, September 20, prior to signing the Defense of Marriage Act, President Clinton released the following statement:
Throughout my life I have strenuously opposed discrimination of any kind, including discrimination against gay and lesbian Americans. I am signing into law H.R. 3396, a bill relating to same-gender marriage, but it is important to note what this legislation does and does not do.
I have long opposed governmental recognition of same-gender marriages and this legislation is consistent with that position. The Act confirms the right of each state to determine its own policy with respect to same gender marriage and clarifies for purposes of federal law the operative meaning of the terms "marriage" and "spouse".
This legislation does not reach beyond those two provisions. It has no effect on any current federal, state or local anti-discrimination law and does not constrain the right of Congress or any state or locality to enact anti-discrimination laws. I therefore would take this opportunity to urge Congress to pass the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, an act which would extend employment discrimination protections to gays and lesbians in the workplace. This year the Senate considered this legislation contemporaneously with the Act I sign today and failed to pass it by a single vote. I hope that in its next Session Congress will pass it expeditiously.
I also want to make clear to all that the enactment of this legislation should not, despite the fierce and at times divisive rhetoric surrounding it, be understood to provide an excuse for discrimination, violence or intimidation against any person on the basis of sexual orientation. Discrimination, violence and intimidation for that reason, as well as others, violate the principle of equal protection under the law and have no place in American society.
That's a dumb libertarian talking point.
Marriage (dissolution of marriage) is about property.
Government's main function is to protect property (boundaries, ownership, possessions).
Lol...wrong. Marriage is a CONTRACT between 2 people absolutely no reason the government needs to be involved if its a divorce and only then the civil court needs involved.
There is no logical reason to limit it to two people.
I doubt that bigamy laws will stand, if challenged.
If a cluster wants a contract, the government should allow them to craft it, and register it at the courthouse.
if a cluster can find a church to marry them, then they can do that to.
Totally separate issues.
Simply not true.

No, sadly, it is not. There have been several attacks in NYC alone lately:

Red herring.Who is ignoring anything? Due process was done.
If the people of CA passed a handgun ban, would you have wanted it challenged?
Ignoring a constitutional amendment passed by the will of the people (remember that?) isn't upholding the law...It's ignoring it.
Not a red herring at all. A state constitutional amendment cannot go against the U.S. Constitution which is called the Supreme Law of the Land for a very good reason.
Let me ask you....if the majority of Californians voted to amend the CA state constitution to make gun ownership illegal...would you happily support the will of the people?

It's going to happen. No nation can withstand these kinds of stressors. Either that, or some other power will come in. Or, both. Igor Panarin, the man who predicted the breakup of the Soviet Union, predicted the breakup of the US too.

No matter how to want to slice it, this nation is done.
not for homosexual goatsWhat next ? The Supreme's going to rule it's ok to marry goats ?
DOMA was hate based legislation to start with.
It never should have been allowed and Clinton should have vetoed it

Again, and Im getting sick of repeating this over and over...
the 2nd amendment CLEARLY states the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. In no place does the constitution say marriage is a right. To get to that you have to make intellectual leaps via case law using equal protection as a flimsy base.
Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws
my only issue with this is that the SCOTUS has told the voters of california that their votes mean nothing and that the all powerful judicial branch will make laws from now on.
The will of the people (twice voted against gay marriage) has become worthless, Welcome to the United dictatorship of America.
I suspect that the Westbro Baptist church congregation was up all night painting new signs.

I hope they have to stay in hellish marriages just to keep their big screens too.

So...if the will of the people made gun ownership in CA illegal, you'd be cool with that?
No matter which side you're on, I hope everyone realizes that these decisions out of the SCOTUS is only going to deepen and widen the divisions already deep and wide enough to swallow the country in one bite.
