What was a sick joke 50 years ago and a stupid liberal idea 20 years ago is now "settled law." BARF!
Time to take country back from a corrupt immoral Supreme Court.
Was never intended for the Court to have this much power, we really messed up the last 50 years or so
A Puerto Rican Spaniard hegemonist oversees the legal landscape of the American Intermountain West.
It's enough to say that the compact is broken, the Union has self dissolved.
Oh Wait. Gary Herbert, alleged American, appointed Sean Reyes, angry hispanic as the Attorney General of the State of Utah. A place the Spaniards passed through 5 centuries ago and...ignored.
Guess they deserve what they get.
What’s gonna happen when president Cruz declares gay marriage illegal by executive order?
“U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor will receive the emergency appeal request because she has jurisdiction over Utah and surrounding states.”
I wonder how Sonya will rule?
” following the orders of Gov. Gary Herbert. “
Is this guy missing two things between his legs? The counties were willing to stand firm. WTH?
Gov. Gary Herbert needs to be impeached.
the Utah bureaucrats are obeying their federal masters ...
So why would conservatives want to buy a license and prop up caesars idea of “marriage” in the first place?
Utah should have defied that court ruling
“What’s gonna happen when president Cruz declares gay marriage illegal by executive order?”
He will not. There is 0 pressure from conservative electorate to have this reversed. If tomorrow the SC legalized gay marriage across US, the decision would be met by a collective shrug, just look at Utah. If the people do not rise up, don’t expect a politician to risk his career to save the nation in the face of collective apathy.
When bureaucrats are not held accountable by the public, they will naturally look up to sources of perceived authority. Blame is with public, not bureaucracy.
I wonder, what would happened if a judge in Russia or Pakistan or Ethiopia who made a similar decision?
I think that's why they went for the reddest state. If Utah does not care, America as a whole certainly does not care. People don't want to believe it, but it's true: the country many of us knew and loved is OVER.
I have become convinced in the last few days that we ARE experiencing God’s judgement right now for our sin....this continual and rapid moral decline is the Almighty turning us over to our sinful desires.
The call of His followers is to remain faithful even as the world around us crumbles. He will not abandon us, and we must not abandon Him.
But increasingly it appears the time for rescuing this nation from ruin may be over. We are Jeremiah or perhaps Isaiah witnessing the nation and its leaders devolving into perdition...calling (rightfully) for a return to our moral compass, yet realizing it probably won’t happen.
Not trying to be defeatist, just realistic.
Remain faithful regardless of the world around you. Be Noah.
That’s what I’m thinking -
66% of the state’s people voted for this and one man
ONE MAN
substituted his “superior” decision for all these people.
Sorry bud, we aren’t buying it.
Try to enforce your ruling if you dare.
That’s what Romans 1:18 says - the wrath of God is revealed from heaven as [all the stuff you’re seeing happening in the USA today].
The depravity of homosexuality and the acceptance thereof is the final stages of the “giving over” of a depraved people to their rejection of God’s Law.
Utah is interesting. The average Mormon is alot more conservative than the average Catholic or Protestant. But a Mormon is also least likely to toss a brick at a cop or burn cars when things don’t go his way. Hence it is hard to tell if Utah is representative.
Don’t appeal.
Just don’t do it.
Utah should issue a sodomy license to same-sex couples and a marriage license to male-female couples. There is no same-sex marriage....it’s sodomy.
