Let my tell you why this is a complete and utter defeat on this issue.
Four Justices in our “conservative” SCOTUS did NOT vote to take these up. They permitted the Circuit Court decisions to stand. Think about that. Not even four wanted to overturn the Circuits. ALL they are doing is just biding their time as they do when there is a big societal shift taking place on an issue.
IF any of the Circuits remaining uphold any State restriction on gay “marriage” then they will eventually resolve it. And be assured there is no chance in the world they will uphold such a decision. Just not taking these cases sends a signal to the remaining Courts. And even if a Circuit panel upholds any State, it won’t be upheld en banc.
The only thing SCOTUS may take, and probably will, is a Full Faith and Credit argument. That too won’t end well for us.
This issue is lost. America is in decline. We are the ONLY demographic that wants to prohibit gay “marriage”. Yeah, blacks kinda don’t like it but it is in huge flux with them.
And as we die off. There is nothing to replace us. Quite frankly, it is like that on just about every single conservative issue
I didn’t need to wake up to this. This is really about 10 times worse than you think it is.
I think you may be right, and if the next Presidential election doesn't result in a real, true conservative {Cruz} then I'm glad that I'm in my 70s, and won't live to see the total moral destruction on my beloved Country.
The USA as a land mass, will continue to exist, but as a Constitutional Free Country, never more. It will make me want to ........
On the other hand, we have more children than the other side. Right now we’ve capitulated and send our children to be indoctrinated by them. That’s their only hope, to be parasites off of the fertility of conservatives.
If we stop participating in their system, it won’t take long to to recapture the majority. Hispanic, black, and immigrant groups are also on our side on social issues.
