Gawd...Roberts has gone full-blown lib.

[ColdOne]

Horrible. Not a surprise though.

[Huskrrrr]

The incredible shrinking American culture continues.

[Colonel_Flagg]

I remember when people used to think Roberts was a conservative. Now if you just lie to him, he’ll vote your way.

[SE Mom]

From what I can gather this was decided on who did and did not have standing to bring case.

Also in this decision the 5-4 split was NOT idealogical.

[FlingWingFlyer]

You can’t vote FOR something and then elect crooked politicians who are against you on that same issue. It’s just dumb. Elections do have consequences. The California politicians pissed all over the California voters who elected them.

[InterceptPoint]

In a ruling that assures further legal battles, the high court found that backers of Proposition 8 did not have the legal right to defend the voter-approved gay marriage ban in place of the governor and attorney general, who have refused to press appeals of a federal judge's 2010 ruling finding the law unconstitutional.

In a nutshell - Jerry Brown and a single judge have more power than the population of California. Citizens have "no legal standing" to appeal the judges ruling. That's what this decision means. I think this is far reaching and not good.

[T-Bird45]

A technical ruling on standing as a result of the Governator and CA AG refusing to do their jobs and follow the results of a proposition election. Given the recent choice by the LDS on the Boy Scouts gay youth rule, it’s unlikely the LDS will be a factor in the same way they were in the first Prop.8 battles.

Well, it could have been worse.... The homo's had hoped...even expected...that the court would find some innate constitutional right to gay marriage, (see Abortion) that would apply to all states and wipe out all gay marriage bans. Although, they got half a loaf with DOMA (probably a bit more) they are all still upset that they didn't get the whole loaf....

[2banana]

Twice today.

TWICE TODAY.

Legally passed laws BY THE PEOPLE

were over turned.

[fwdude]

So, the voters are chopped liver.

[fatnotlazy]

Nice to know that the vote of we, the people, doesn’t count. Thank you, Supreme Court.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

What can I say! Ain't he/she cute?

[IbJensen]

Votes by the citizens of America count for absolutely nothing.

The SCOTUS is an ass!

[fwdude]

From what I’ve heard, this case can be taken up by any authority, even a town clerk, who legally has standing in the government. So, technically, we start over again.

[Yosemitest]

This is what we get when we FAIL to OBEY God.
For it is written:

“ For whosoever shall commit ANY of these abominations,
even the SOULS that commit them
SHALL BE CUT OFF from among their people. ”

Those who support homosexuals are against our Heavenly Father and His Son Jesus Christ.
These anti Christ people only bring destruction on us ALL.
I have NO sympathy for homosexuals!

Homosexuality is a "Mark" of disobedience.

It was given by our Heavenly Father to test us
to see ... if we will OBEY our Heavenly Father,
and abide by His commandments, statues, and ordinances.

Someone once asked

"Why are they [homosexuals] all so angry?"

The answer is in the definition of "REPROBATE".

rep·ro·bate \ˈre-prə-ˌbāt\ a. [L. reprobatus, reprobo, to disallow; re and probo, to prove.]

1. Not enduring proof or trial; not of standard purity or fineness; disallowed; rejected.


Reprobate silver shall men call them, because the Lord hath rejected them. Jer. 6.




2. Abandoned in sin; lost to virtue or grace.

They profess that they know God, but in works deny him, being abominable and disobedient, and to every good work reprobate. Titus 1.

3. Abandoned to error, or in apostasy. 2Tim. 3.

And the reason"why" is given in the Bible.

God has a cure for homosexuals.

But will we OBEY our Heavenly Father?

"Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect
that God is just,
that his justice cannot sleep forever."

[RC one]

the institution of marriage pre-dates recorded history and in all that time, it has always been between men and women. There is nothing unconstitutional about wanting to maintain that 20,000 year precedent.

[Jeff Head]

Roberts is completely compromised, IMHO. He leads another shameful and sick decision. T

he people's representatives create a law with a large majority. A federal judge rules against it. The people themselves voted for a constitutional amendment punctuating the original law, again by a large majority.

Now more federal judges are turning that over.

We are witnessing two things.

1) The tyranny of specific judiciary members..co-opting the will of the people which is lawfully taken according to the laws of their soveriegn state.
2) The compromising of those same judiciary by a criminal, thugish enterprise in this current administration which is, IMHO, either bribing or coersing them to vote as they direct.

This will end badly for those law breakers and oath breakers. It may take a while yet...but if this continues, we will see a remedy similar to what our founders imposed on the King of england.

A MODERN DECLARATION OF LIBERTY

[liberalh8ter]

Next up....Churches will be forced to marry homosexuals or lose their tax exempt status. Move over minorities, gay is the new civil liberty.

[ssaftler]

Can anyone on this board tell me with a straight face that they are the least bit surprised by this judicial overreach?

If so, I have a bridge or two I’d like to sell you.
