It is sweet, and all they did was say, nah, we're busy with real issues, begone, just like those who somehow believe that tradition is more valuable than equality.

So far no statement? National Organization for Marriage

I guess they're at Kinko's, buying nice paper to print their resumes on.

10th Amendment.

Marriage falls to purview of State.

Pretty simple.

The bible thumpers and gay haters (Traditional Marriage Proponents) just keep losing.

Not everything is dysfunctional these days

Pretty simple.

Not really, that died with Loving.

Ironic the outrage some in the US have when Israel, God Central has allowed homosexuals to serve openly in the military, and get married for quite some time. And contrary to doom n gloom types, not suffered any ill-favor from God considering a number of attempts to destroy them, have never lost a war.

Conversely, the supposedly godly US can't win a war against 19th century goat herders.

Not Really. Windsor was affirmed upon the long standing precedent marriage is a state purview.

 

[Anathema]

If the Courts won't correct the issue then maybe it's time to appeal to a Higher Court and see what Justices Colt, Winchester, Smith, Wesson, Remington, etc..... have to say on the matter

Not Really. Windsor was affirmed upon the long standing precedent marriage is a state purview.

Early in the decision the court discussed instances where marriage law was not strickly a state purview area.

Additionally, Windsor was decided not on tradition, but on the fact that it violated the 5th Amendments Equal Protection and Due Process protections:

"What has been explained to this point should more than suffice to establish that the principal purpose and the necessary effect of this law are to demean those persons who are in a lawful same-sex marriage. This requires the Court to hold, as it now does, that DOMA is unconstitutional as a deprivation of the liberty of the person protected by the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution.

The liberty protected by the Fifth Amendment’s Due Process Clause contains within it the prohibition against denying to any person the equal protection of the laws.See Bolling, 347 U. S., at 499–500; Adarand Constructors, Inc. v. Peña, 515 U. S. 200, 217–218 (1995). While the Fifth Amendment itself withdraws from Government the power to degrade or demean in the way this law does, the equal protection guarantee of the Fourteenth Amendment makes that Fifth Amendment right all the more specific and all the better understood and preserved.​

I'm as grown up as I'm ever going to be. Deal with it.

Almost. I don't see the robbery attempt as necessary. Simply being LGBT is sufficient reason to get shot in my book.

Where did you get the idea that same sex marriage is legal in Israel?

Is same-sex marriage legal in Israel

A shame. People worthy of respect continue to grow up.

Federalism not a big deal?

 

[PaintMyHouse]

Good news for my fellow federalists everywhere.

Now we can all get on with our lives.

Good news for all Americans. The principle of Equal before the Law is being respected.

Probably part of why I don't seek your or anyone else's Respect. I'm a much larger proponent of FEAR anyway.

Unless the robbery attempt was just the cover story.
