Wrong - likely, not will.You know that the Supreme Court will likely reverse the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals, affirming the judgments of the four Federal district courts that measures seeking to deny same-sex couples access to marriage law violate the 14th Amendment.
Consequently, you fabricate this ridiculous and unfounded contrivance in a pathetic effort to undermine that likely ruling.
You stating emphatically that anyone could know that before a fair and impartial hearing is actually supporting my arguments here. Are you aware of that?
It's the general consensus of the legal community – given the current make up of the Court, and Justice Kennedy's previous rulings concerning measures denying gay Americans their civil rights – that the High Court will likely reverse the Six Circuit, having nothing to do with a given justice participating in a gay wedding ceremony.
This is not necessarily rare, we saw a similar situation in 2008 with Heller and again in 2010 with McDonald, where Justice Scaila's participation in the shooting sports had no bearing whatsoever concerning his opinion in either case.
Just like presidents and members of Congress, Supreme Court justices are allowed to have personal opinions, express those opinions, and engage in personal activities with the understanding they'll perform their duties objectively and in good faith.
Again, you seek only to remove from the case a justice whom you perceive likely to vote with the majority and reverse, motivated solely by your unwarranted hatred of gay Americans, having nothing at all to do with the facts of the case or the law.
