Judge strikes down 'Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California'..

[DesertRenegade]

What is so despicable is that the homosexual militants were allowed to cherry pick Judge Walker, an avowed homosexual. What next, allow unrepentant pedophiles to preside over molestation cases? We have entered crazy town.

[Blood of Tyrants]

I pray that this doesn’t stand because in this ONE RULING this liberal, homosexual, activist judge has just ruled that NO STATE has the authority to tell homosexuals that they cannot get married. Are we going to let ONE unelected JUDGE decide how 50 states and 315 million people can live? Not only no, but HELL NO!

Channel your anger into launching a ballot initiative for this November's election for the State of CA to NULLIFY this invalid decision by a rogue federal government which has abandoned its only authority - the U.S. Constitution.

So does this mean that 1 man can marry 2 women or vise versa. Sounds like Pandora's box is now open.

[SideoutFred]

Gay rights activists say no, because the argument is that marriage only allows one man to marry one woman...this ruling would allow on man to marry one man. Unless marriage allowed one man to marry 20 people, gays couldn’t either.

Or so the argument goes.

[OldGoatCPO]

I do not disagree with you at all. Look what is happening in the UK. Why is Islam on the rise in nations that pride themselves on secularism and gay tolerance. While churches in England are shuttered Mosques are growing. People need social norms, they need to have common ground in faith, morals and standards. Our Judeo/Christian beliefs provided the mortar for this nation. That mortar is crumbling because morals and values are being eroded. We should not hate gays, but gay activity is certainly an abomination according to the Bible.

I am aware of what the gay agenda is all about. Unfortunately white, heterosexual, Christian males do not riot and consistently turn the other cheek at ever assault. At this point, I prefer gay activist stay out my life, my beliefs and my morals. God did not write the Constitution, he gave us his laws as described in the Bible. A gay judge can claim homosexuality is OK and even demand the Bible be changed. But they cannot change Gods laws, they cannot demand God change biblical law, they will have to answer to a higher authority.

[ScottLA37]

When 2 people have the same rights as 1 person, how does this not relate to 3 or more? Not letting 3 people marry is a violation of their rights too, just the same as 2.

[SideoutFred]

I’m just telling you their argument

[Binstence]

There is no constitution in a world of renegade mini-dictator judges wearing pink G-strings.

When fascism comes to America it will be by one radical activist “judge” in a pink robe nullifying the DEMOCRATIC votes of 7 million voters. Translation: Fascism is here in America.

This issue is not about homosexuality, it is about the very essence of democracy. 7 million Californians voted against so called, “gay marriage” and ONE GAY JUDGE said THEIR DEMOCRATIC VOTE IS MEANINGLESS. Be VERY afraid.

6X6 = 36 x 6 = 216 ....

666 ... enough said...

[DHSMostWanted]

I can’t find it. I have read my pocket Constitution cover to cover and have not found anything on marriage.

[RayChuang88]

I think this case will be appealed and we could see ruled on by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals (both three-judge panel and full Court of Appeals) and also likely sent to the US Supreme Court. In short, don’t expect a legal settlement until at least as this case makes it through the higher courts—possibly as late as 2013. And that’s before the possibility of a Constitutional Amendment to define what a “marriage” means legally.

[Binstence]

Consider that the fascist-left is so close to absolute power and that all that stands between them and permanent dictatorship is one conservative Supreme Court Justice. Can we wait until 2013 and would you find it difficult to imagine the current far left ruling majority “arranging” for the removal of one conservative justice? Be very alarmed.

"So polygamy is a go as well? Probably. Consenting adults and all ...

Then bestiality following close behind. "

Hey I think youre onto something, maybe I'll marry a sheep and claim the lambs as dependents on my taxes !

You know, you just might be onto something there.

A gay judge votes in favor of gay marriage.

Figures. When you allow a homosexual judge to make the ruling, what do you think will happen?

The founding fathers must be rolling over in their graves. The leftists are celebrating today as God further gets pushed out of this country, but we’ll all face God someday, and God will not be pleased.

Expanding upon this, what is stopping the legalization of polygamy and polyamory? In fact, there are groups fighting for these things. Once you open the door to redefining marriage, a word that can’t be redefined in absolutes (that’s why the marriage definition wasn’t in the Constitution), then it can be redefined again and again to support whatever perversion people what recognized. If marriage comes to mean everything, it will mean nothing.

[Pinkbell]

I agree 100%.
