What are “LGBT rights?”
I thought we had a sphincterocracry.
If a Republican wins the Presidency and replaces one of the pro-gay-marriage Justices with a Conservative, then all bets are off regarding all of the Liberal superprecedents. Many States are planning for this eventuality.
There is no real debate on so-called LGBT rights and 1st Amendment enumerated religious expression.
More specifically, regarding the so-called right to gay ”marriage,” activist justices and state officials wrongly ignored the following about the Constitution and marriage. The Founding States had made the 10th Amendment to clarify that the Constitutions silence about things like marriage means that such issues are automatically and uniquely state power issues, not the business of the feds.
In fact, the Constitutions silence about gay ”marriage” means that so-called PC rights like gay ”marriage” are not expressly protected by the Constitution. So there is actually nothing in the Constitution to stop the states from making 10th Amendment-protected state laws which prohibit constitutionally unprotected gay ”marriage.”
Also, pro-gay activist states that used state equality laws to trump 1st Amendment-protected religious expression wrongly violated the 14th Amendment imo. Section 1 of that amendment prohibits the states from making laws / policies which abridge constitutionally express rights like religious expression.
14th Amendment, Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
The bottom line is that pro-gay ”marriage” activist justices not only stole legislative branch powers to establish the so-called right to gay ”marriage” from the bench, but they breached the Founding States division of state and federal government powers and stole state legislative powers to do so.
[[lawmakers will be pushing discrimination protections for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people.]]
How about they push for religious rights which are about to be TRAMPLED UPON by homosexuals and deviants instead?
