The SCOTUS failed to identify any provision of the 14th amendment, or any other part of the constitution, that permits it to redefine marriage from its ancient definition.

Thus their ruling is a nonsequitur.

A nonsequitur is, by nature, unenforceable, and uninterpretable.

SCOTUS gave gay marriage “fundamental right” protection. The majority was explicit about that.

Bottom line is that this case wrongly decided — just like Roe v. Wade. It goes against our Federalist system of governance.

But the actions of a clerk aren’t going to alter that decision.

Congress either needs to grab a pair and invalidate the decision by taking away jurisdiction or something similar or the People of the United States need to amend the Constitution. At present, those are the only two viable ways out of the box Kennedy and the four leftists put us in.
