From the Article:
The Supreme Court was asked to consider petitions for certiorari in seven separate cases challenging state laws barring legal recognition of same-sex marriage. On Monday morning, SCOTUSBlog reported, the Supreme Court denied all seven petitions.

I fear that this is only a reprieve before the U.S. Supreme Court shoves same-sex marriage down Americans' throats.

They don't have to do something that would be so politically controversial — all they have to do is deny standing to anybody bringing the issue up and allow the inferior federal courts to continue to decree that states cannot define marriage.

Marriage is a States Rights issue. SCOTUS made the correct ruling with that in mind.
