<>30 states still have bans against same-sex marriages in state constitutions or laws.<> California was one of them.

By the 9th Amendment, Scotus was duty-bound to protect declarations in state constitutions.

Months after Obergefell, Anthony Kennedy admitted that what he did was "the right thing to do." IOW, judicial lawmaking which is oligarchy at its worst.

I believe California had a similar vote which also was passed.

So they simply had the state Supreme Court declare the referendum invalid.

Anthony Kennedy admitted that what he did was “the right thing to do.”

Didn’t he come out and say that his decision was based more on his emotions than on the rule of law?

Yet another backstabbing POS that was able to sneak on the court.

It means that nobody wanted this Queer crap that you can’t escape from nowadays, and the only reason polling changed is because people are too afraid to say how they really feel without getting fired from their job.

The author asks a question, but I don’t see the answer.

“Gay marriage” is legal in america because a bunch of oligarchs wanted to force it on the public against their will as a form of ritualistic humiliation.

Nothing, massive brainwashing can change public opinion on a dime.

Unless there's a test case and SCOTUS upholds the law, nothing.

A test case would involve arresting a "gay" couple for getting "married". I predict that won't happen.

I also predict not much longer for the United States, one way or another.

FL voters approved a ban on same-sex marriage; what does that mean today?

It better mean there are no same sex marriages taking place in Florida, that's what.

Where in the Constitution is defining marriage a responsibility of the Congress, the Judicial, or the Executive?
