“Traditional marriage is the fundamental unit of the political order. And ultimately the very survival of the political order depends upon the procreative potential embodied in traditional marriage.”

“Those are the well-tested, well-proven principles on which we have relied for centuries,” added the judge.

Finally, a judge who actually gets it!

Wow! A real HONEST judge. They’re really rare these days. Most judges work for the DNC.

I read about this the other day. He based his ruling on a Supreme Court ruling that defended marriage and said that there was no such thing as same sex marriage.

Praise be to this judge! He’s a beacon of light in a sea of judicial darkness.

To bad Puerto Rico is not a state, it is a commonwealth of the US. This will fly in the face of all the other states of the US Union - How can a judge in a commonwealth Territory rule that the US Constitution and the Supreme Court has abridged the decency of marriage - in that there is no such issue as same sex marriage. A man marries a woman that is final - it is traditional understanding. How can a man marry a man and a woman marry a woman - it is not natural to do so, nor is it God’s plan of human existence. The law of nature must prevail to a certain extant - male and female species exist for procreation. same sex marriage is not possible. Unless mankind is like an Amoeba and can propogate itself, it is a freak of nature for man and man, womamn and woman. So basically even the US Supreme Court is in violation of the Constitution

The only sane place in the U.S. is the place that isn’t a state.

And to think how many so-called conservative elected officials have just waved the white flag on this.

Nice to find a judge with intestinal fortitude.

Exactly, and those principles have been around far longer than the 14th Amendment.

A moral and principled man with common sense and true understanding following the wisdom and truth of the Constitution and we had to wait for a judge governing Puerto Rico to finally make the correct ruling.

Good to see two different judges ruling that states (and now, apparently, commonwealths and territories) may define marriage as being between a man and a woman.

We all know this will eventually end up before SCOTUS on appeal; it’s only a matter of time. Getting a couple of good trial court decisions will give conservatives at least a fighting chance, however slim, of winning this battle.

I’m not optimistic of our chances with the current composition of the Supreme Court, but miracle happen.
