Same sex couples didn't have access the same reason siblings don't have access, it's not what marriage is. Before they decided compelling state interest, they decided marriage could include a sexual proclivity it didn't include before.
Wrong. Gay couples didn't have access for the same reason interracial couples didn't...bigots.
No rights were being restricted. The definition of something had to be changed so that a right could be claimed that was supposedly being denied. It would be like, if I wanted to run around nude in public, claiming it was my right to free expression. Well, we have a constitutional right to free expression but it has never included public indecency... so the court alters the definition of "free expression" to include indecent behavior and voila... my rights ARE being restricted!
Wrong again, Skippy. The definition of marriage did not change just because gays could also enter into it just as the definition of voting did not change when blacks and women were allowed to do it. Marriage remains the same as it always has, uniting a couple in matrimony.
