They're trying to create a societal revolution by force of will. This isn't an election issue...they have crossed the Rubicon, and the left has gone with them. If they are repelled in this effort, all the blue zone cities that went with them will next attempt some form of open disobedience to the law. Only force will stop those cities from disobeying even a Constitutional amendment. Then you will be looking at secession in some form -- San Francisco already has that as an undercurrent and Seattle and Portland would be right there is push came to shove.

They will either get their way or move to section off some geography just for themselves. This is the left's civil war.

Good analysis--sounds like an accurate description, all right, and that would explain it. If that happens I bet the ecoterrorists in Seattle and Portland and San Francisco would join in the civil disobedience--would get ugly.

That's what scares me. "Gay marriage" will go a long way to further wrecking society, but it's the judicial activism and "magical thinking" that will be used as a weapon for more attacks on society, coming soon. The left feels they now have the magic words that will give them complete control to remake America, regardless of what the Constitution says.

We saw the klintons use the FL supreme court to order after-the-fact changes to the election laws, when there wasn't even a legal leg to stand on. Last year, the USSC gave us "compelling government interest" and "considerations of international laws" as factors that outweigh the words of the Constitution.

Now the same people that despise the Constitution are using the magic words, "full faith and credit" to allow a renegade state supreme court to encourage minor county officials to create new laws, and then expect them to be observed nationwide under "full faith and credit". Yet if the good guys try to put a stop to this before it reache bloodshed, they're slimed when constitutional ammendments are proposed.

I'm expecting some state supreme court to shortly decide that their state constitution does not allow for RKBA. That means all the state gun control laws, no matter how restrictive, are dead, because all the guns must be turned in immediately. And under "full faith and credit", the rest of the country must obey, too.

My great fear during the 2000 ballot "revote" in Florida was the klintons would have successfully stolen the election for Algore, their stooge. I was sick at heart considering how a civil war would affect me. Now this leering attempt to usurp power by flawed judicial thinking tells me that civil war is again not unthinkable.
