Who cares....it isn't a universally accepted right and is therefore not considered "constitutional".
Can't help that.
This is exactly why a good handful of the Found Fathers were wary of ever including a Bill of Rights in the first place. They knew future generations would foolishly interpret that only the rights specifically enumerated were rights to the exclusion of all others. It seems their fears were justified.
Like making stuff up ?
I am simply stating a fact.
If it were a constitutionaly protected right, there would be no court battles going on right now.
Just because some judge says it......does not make it so.
The fact that some would like it to be that way is what the Founders were wary of.
Have a day.
I am sorry? What exactly am I making up again? Quite a few of the Founding Fathers were very wary of supporting a Bill of Rights for the exact same reasons I mentioned above.
The 9th Amendment states: The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
The fact you don't believe court battles are not going on that concern constitutionally protected rights is quite shockingly ignorant on your part.
Somehow you seem to be wanting to say that marriage is a "civil right" (not that such things really exist). But just going with the idea that they are somehow assumed to exist....marriage isn't one of them.
Using the 9th in your argument does what for you ? Answer: Nothing. There is no list of rights retained by the people. That is the whole basis for the current discussion or argument (as the case may be). It is not a universally accepted, constitutionaly protected right.
Free speech is a constitutionally protected right. Court battles take place over whether or not something (such as porn) constitutes free speech.
Marriage is not in the same category.
You should be careful about accusing others of being ignorant when it is quit apparent you are pretty much in the dark yourself.
