I’m not for abortion, as stated.

I’m not for your asinine government over-writing my Religions prohibition on gay marriage because of your oft touted Reynolds decision establishing it as a mere civil contract.

As for the war on drugs, it has cost more than having drug addled zombies roaming around. Both in taxes and in a reduction in our overall freedom.

As has also been pointed out repeatedly to you, ending the unconstitutional Federal war in no way negates a single State law. As it should be...

“I’m not for your asinine government over-writing my Religions prohibition on gay marriage because of your oft touted Reynolds decision establishing it as a mere civil contract.”

Again, re-read Reynolds. It’s all there in the decision. The English Common Law defines marriage - not the federal government or the states.

It’s the same definition that underpins trial by jury and habeous corpus.

Libertarians are simply wrong on this issue about federal regulation on marriage, and by propagation error have brought about the result we see today.

The sooner Libertarians understand why the English Common Law is so important to their own rights and freedoms, the sooner we can move beyond suicidal ideologies that would insist we concede every bulwark of civilization.
