Agreed, and Kentucky isn’t the only state affected. Furthermore, if there is no legal reference for marriage, is divorce, dissolution or annulment of a “marriage” possible?

If there is no longer a reference definition of marriage, then there could be no reference for divorce. The courts would have no standing to do anything other than maybe intervene in child custody disputes.

The SCOTUS really screwed the pooch with this decision. They did not consider the implications of their political decision before foisting upon an unsuspecting electorate.

Or maybe the destruction of the entire institution of marriage was their goal all along. In that case, they succeeded beyond their wildest dreams.

There is at least one judge that agrees with you

I guess from now on since nobody is married then nobody has to pay the federal marriage tax penalty. I shall from this point onward file taxes as an individual.
