Yep, might as well disband all federal, state and local legislatures since the SCOTUS will aptly handle it all now. /s

Bestiality is coming as well....any sexual perversion will be AOK. Worse then a sick society we have become exactly as God said would happen when a nation turns their back on Him. As the days of Noah.

Scalia, in dissent:
Today's decree says that my Ruler, and the Ruler of 320 million Americans coast-to-coast, is a majority of the nine lawyers on the Supreme Court.
What self-important crap. SCOTUS is no more my "ruler" than Congress is. The federal government does not have my consent or resepct. I'll submit to force, but I will not obey.

It can be fixed through congressional action. The likely first step would be to start impeachment proceedings against those judges who have decided that they are now the legislative branch. I'm sure Justice Scalia can helpfully point out any particular justices to start with.

He is a conservative jurist, with his principal philosophy being deference to the legislative branch.

...

I disagree. What he did yesterday was more than deference to the legislative branch.

Methinks the left has finally crossed a solid red line, and there will be monumental backlash over this, 1860's style

You and I share the same opinions about this matter, FRiend. But there will be no backlash. Nothing is going to happen.

I agree. A small minority of people are passionately against gay marriage, but the vast majority of people in this country are either:

a) In favor of it
b) Indifferent
c) Against it, but not enough to actually do anything about it.

There won't be a civil war over this. There won't even be civil strife. Neither happened after Roe v. Wade...why would this be any different?

“Roberts did not go homo on this issue. There is still hope for him.”

He needed to stay covert, and Kennedy gave him the vote he needed. That’s all.

That is the odd thing here. The two things Romney is most known for — gay marriage and Obamacare. The very two things every conservative hates, both come to full fruition in one week. Mitt will probably be ready to proudly campaign on being the father of Obamacare and gay marriage if they ever let him run again. He must feel like the rest of the world has finally caught up to his way of thinking. Now he just has to figure out a way to use it to get into the White House.

If Republicans don’t cave, like they do in everything else, this bullshit ruling could get interesting. In Alabama I know Judge Roy Moore will not accept it. I would suggest any state that does not want to “marry” queers just to do away with marriage licenses and come up with a legal contract. Leave the marriages as a church function. Queers are not going to win in court when they start suing a house of worship for not “marrying” them. To hell with the blacked robbed tyrants.

Genesisi 19

12 The two men said to Lot, “Do you have anyone else here—sons-in-law, sons or daughters, or anyone else in the city who belongs to you? Get them out of here, 13 because we are going to destroy this place. The outcry to the Lord against its people is so great that he has sent us to destroy it.”

14 So Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who were pledged to marry[a] his daughters. He said, “Hurry and get out of this place, because the Lord is about to destroy the city!” But his sons-in-law thought he was joking.

I used to feel the same way and now I see the wisdom in why the Muslims kill these people as soon as they’re found out. Some people are just too dangerous to be allowed to live.

My pastor says he’ll personally burn our church down before a gay marriage takes place in it. I believe him.
