Lie. Since the day your ancestors climbed down from trees and created civilization, marriage has been defined as male and female.The definition of marriage is not static. It never has been. To think so shows a woeful lack of historical knowledge.The definition of marriage was changed. That's not the job of the USSC, and I agree with Chief Justice Roberts that the constitution had nothing to do with the decision.No new concept was created...a restriction was struck down.Marriage is now the law of the land and government is no longer allowed to restrict SSM. Getting rid of a restriction is NOT the same as creating new law. It's really basic stuff here.Again, then why is SSM now the "law of the land"?
Actually it is. when you create a concept that NEVER existed as a concept in a States law, you are creating it.
It will take more than that. You have to build another case with enough good constitutional reasons to get the original ruling reversed...just like it took a long time and a lot of evidence before Brown v. Board of Ed overturned Plessy v. Ferguson.
