“How are they oppressed and why is it their business to force us to agree to their perverted view of marriage?
Civil rights, my tuchis.”
You’re asking the wrong monkey.
I just told you why I think it has more support than the 2% of the population who are effected by it.
I do think that after a few thousand marriages are performed in a lot of different states it will never be repealed.
I wrote on another thread that this was legally a nifty way to get the same sex marriage issue off the table for both parties before the midterms.
Legally, its a dead issue.
But morally, enough people will never come to terms with it.
The Left has not succeeded in settling abortion even after nearly 40 years since the Supreme Court imposed it upon the country.
What makes them think same sex marriage is going to be any easier to lay to rest?
Judicial activism in both cases opened the same Pandora’s Box and in both cases, it wasn’t done by a vote of the people but through judicial fiat.
Legally, the Left got its way - but it never has been able to persuade much of the public that abortion is a moral good. I predict the same thing will happen with same sex marriage in the future.
