Mark, the 14th Amendment of which was used to justify Obergefell, doesn't play favorites. Therefore, when the Judicial Branch of government created a new class to add to the Constitution (a thing they're forbidden to do), of "just some of our favorite deviant sex behaviors but not others", polygamy and other forms of marriage yet to come, based off of consenting adult behaviors and associations were all immediately legal at the same time. Either they are all legal or they are all not. There's no gray area in the 14th where people can play "Let's pretend like we can discriminate between our favorite repugnant sex behaviors and other repugnant sex behaviors".
Nope. All of that is meaningless pseudo-legal gibberish. The Obergefell ruling didn't even mention polygamy. Let alone authorize it.
Once again you're offering us your imagination as the law. And then insisting that the Supreme Court on down is bound to whatever hapless batshit you make up.
Um, no. They aren't.
Law doesn't live in a vacuum dear. And no judge should know that better than the top of the line where there is no further appeal. The marriage contract never was limited to the people wearing the rings. In fact, it was created for the benefit of children and by extension, the society that had to deal with their personalities after they grew up. Long ago society recognized the inferior situations children wound up in as a result of their procreation and adults in their midst. And marriage was created precisely because society recognized that the best adjusted adults came from balanced homes where boys had a father and girls had a mother.
Um, sweetie.....you're not quoting the law. You're quoting yourself. And the imaginary nonsense you make up about the law is a vacuum. A meaningless void having no relevance to the actual law. No marriage is predicated on children or the ability to have them. No state requires children or the ability to have them in order to get married. And the USSC has explicitly contradicted your imagination:
Obergefell v. Hodges said:"This does not mean that the right to marry is less meaningful for those who do not or cannot have children. Precedent protects the right of a married couple not to procreate, so the right to marry cannot be conditioned on the capacity or commitment to procreate."
Remember, hon.....you don't have the slightest fucking clue what you're talking about. And no one is bound by the vacuum of your imagination.
It mentioned equal protection. That means for ALL types of marriage between consenting adults unless you're willing to say equality for all only applies to some.
