Nevada caves on opposition to gay marriage

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Gay marriage is inevitable in all 50 states. No sense in continuing to spend taxpayer dollars preventing it. The Bible thumpers will just have to deal with it.

It depends how they "deal with it". There is no doubt that corrupt legislatures and corrupt judges will impose gay marriage on the whole of the country. That's why this fight will have to be in the streets. It will have to be taken out of the halls of justice, because there is no justice, nor integrity, nor even decency.

More evidence of conservative contempt for the rule of law, disdain of the Constitution, and fear of individual liberty.

Citing legal difficulty, I think it's more "We oppose gay marriage. What? Prove why? Umm..."

And on we go.

Equality libs: how about the same tax rate for everybody then?

I wish.

Typical libfags and rinos refusing to do their jobs

And here is an example of the hate, stupidity, and ignorance Nevada appropriately rejects.

Asking them to do what they were elected to do is bigotry?

Exactly.

The people of a given jurisdiction do not have the authority to instruct their elected officials to seek to violate the civil liberties of American citizens living in that jurisdiction.

Indeed, it’s incumbent upon elected officials – all of whom have taken an oath to obey, protect, and defend the US Constitution – to reject to people’s call to enact measures clearly offensive to the Founding Document.

Bigotry and hate are not justified by ‘majority rule.’

Why would you ban gay marriage in a state that lives off of big groups coming into Vegas to celebrate?

And drive-thru Chapels….

And legalized gambling and prostitution. You expect some right wing social conservative values in NV? Really?

Luckily this battle can be won. And it will be. The church of LGBT picked the wrong man as their messiah [see my signature]..

True.

Unfortunately she’s not the only psychopath out there.

They have to keep opposing it. They have nothing else to do with their time.

Yet you libs will be advocating for pedophiles as you thrive on victim hood

Only another pedophile would advocate for a person molesting a child. I highly doubt that ever comes to pass.

Nevada should be commended for seeking to recognizing the civil rights of American citizens living in the state who happen to be gay.

Nevada's voters approved a state constitutional amendment by wide margins in back-to-back elections in 2000 and 2002 barring same-sex marriage, establishing that "only a marriage between a male and a female person shall be recognized and given effect."

Which the voters of Nevada had no authority to do. One’s civil liberties are not determined by ‘majority rule,’ and one does not forfeit his civil rights as a consequence of his state of residence.

"Based upon the advice of the attorney general's office and their interpretation of relevant case law, it has become clear that this case is no longer defensible in court," Sandoval, a Republican, said of the decision.

Correct.

And it’s incumbent upon all the states to obey the Constitution as Nevada seeks to do, and acknowledge the equal protection rights of same-sex couples.

First learned of this watching CNN's newscrawl. Tuning out some drivel segment reading it my eyes widened reading "no longer defensible in court..." That's the whole problem with such opposition. Minus religion, there's no way to defend opposing gay marriage.

Nevada already legalized gambling and prostitution.

So fudge packer marriage will fit right in with the state's immoral agenda. ..

Actually, last I heard it was just the 1 or 2 counties with brothels that legalized prostitution, still illegal everywhere else including Las Vegas.

Along with most doctors, lawyers, etc.

"I think my book offers really good evidence that the way that capitalism is structured really is a physical manifestation of the brain anomaly known as psychopathy," says Ronson, author of "The Psychopath Test: A Journey Through the Madness Industry" in an interview with Forbes.
