EXACTLY. The Supreme Court has ALREADY de facto ruled on gay marriage in 1971, and essentially said that bans do NOT violate the Constitution. The Court recently chose not to overrule this previous ruling, which means that ACTUALLY, gay "marriage" bans are completely constitutional by the Court's own admission.

“Ultimately,” he wrote, “the very survival of the political order depends upon the procreative potential embodied in traditional marriage.”

No matter what the evil SCOTUS decides, God bless this man for taking a common sense stand against all these nutjobs in robes.

“Ultimately,"he wrote, “the very survival of the political order depends upon the procreative potential embodied in traditional marriage.”

This statement is brilliantly simple and clear.

I think that case back in 1971 was dismissed, due to a lack of a federal legal question, or some such legal status at the time. So that case is the Supreme Court precedent.

The homosexual marriage cases ruled on last year did not address whether there is a constitutional right to homosexual marriage.

So, did he uphold the ban because YT didn’t do it?

Is this a “conflict of PC groups”?

EXACTLY! A "sutainable" state requires future taxpayers... I would imagine that the Leftist argument would be to provide every Mexican, ISIS jihadist, and Obala patient defacto US citizenship... to make up for all the otherwise unproductive faggotry going on.

So being that the gay community are a bunch of “lover’s of Broadway musicals” as they say, I suppose they’re singing a sad song today (from West Side Story)
“Puerto Rico . . .
You ugly island . . .
Island of tropic diseases. “

Correct, that ol’ 1971 Baker vs. Nelson ruling. Good for PR.

The judge is citing a case from 1971?

That’s before the current political correctness agendas, and the current victories by the left that have the attacking everything in the constitution and the amendments to the constitution.

With the current sentiments in liberal land, that 1971 decision will be deemed out of step with what liberal want to call the modern age. And the republicans will go along with the liberal sentiment, for lack of will to hold to principles.

Wonderful argumentation but I fear this is too little, too late.

It’s nice for Puerto Rico but not the remaining 57 (right Professor Obama?) states that will languish under the boot of leftist buggery.

That may sound a bit bitter now that I read it again. I’m sorry I guess I’m a little jealous of Puerto Rico. Maybe I should move there.

Puerto Rico is in the First Circuit. AFAIK they have not ruled on a traditional marriage case. However, it does not look good since the First Circus ruled that DOMA is unconstitutional.

So these activist judges be they Obama’s, or just Leftist judges pimping the Leftist agenda need to be removed from office for violating the precedent set by the SCOTUS in 1971. Is that correct?
