State Nullification on Gay Marriage!

[Kosh]

Many states passed referenda and constitutional amendments declaring marriage as between one man and one woman. In some cases those votes passed with over 80% approval.
It's time states, which are sovereign, nullified meddling by Federal courts against the will of the people and simply declared that any official granting a license to anything other than two non-consanguineous single adults of the opposite sex will lose their salaries and benefits in perpetuity.

We're a constitutional republic, remember?

Yet another far left drone that has no clue about the Constitution other than far left programmed talking points.

Those powers not explicitly grandted to the federal government are reserved to the states or the people respectively.
Seems states have the power to say who can marry and who can't, not the federal government.

...nor prohibited by it...

Unconstitutional state laws are prohibited.

Nothing unconstitutional about them. The states have been setting their own laws for marriage for 200 years. It is the proper function of the state, not the federtal goverment. If the feds want to exert control, nullify it!

Really? Then how did miscegenation prohibitions get overturned?

That was a racial issue. This is not a racial issue.

So...civil rights only apply based on race?

If you want to claim that we are not a constitutional republic I'd be happy to debate you on that.

One on one if you'd like.

lol

Referenda? lol, those are examples of that direct democracy mob rule that you conservatives claim to hate when it's convenient for you.

I guess this time it's not that convenient...

Remind me how you disapprove of Colorado's legalization of marijuana. Oh yeah, that's different somehwo because well it just is.

Don't change the subject. The feds have every right to enforce federal marijuana laws.

So why arent they? WHy arent you outraged at this blatant example of state nullification of federal law. That's federal law, btw, not some judge's opinion.

No one is being denied anything, bozo. States have the power to set rules for marriage. The government cannot deny the will of the citizens.

So a state ban of privately owned firearms can't be overturned by the Supreme Court?

lol

Huh?
That wasnt even a good deflection.

They haven't nullified the law. Personally I believe the federal government should either enforce it or repeal it.

You're claiming states can ban same sex marriage regardless of what the Court says. On the exact same principle they should be able to ban guns.

Why aren't you consistent in your principles?

The city of Chicago banned handguns. The Supreme Court overturned that law.

Why can't the city of Chicago simply nullify the Court ruling, if nullification is a right?

because arms are actually stated in the document. I don't see a reference to marriage anywhere.

AGAIN, why were anti-miscegenation laws overturned? Judicial overreach?

Because races are equal, SSM and OSM are not.

Equal protection is a constitutional right. Marriage in this context is an equal protection issue.

Only in your opinion and it's not your authority to decide. The Supreme Court has the authority to decide whether equal protection applies.

They havent nullified the law? Federal law forbids growing, selling, using marijuana. But no one is prosecuted for it in Colorado. If that isnt nullification then what is?
