Somewhat good statement. However, based on the reports in the media, the only way to ammend the Mass constitution is by election. This is not set to happen untill 2006.

Homosexual Senator Barny frank was stating that there was going to be two years of homosexuals having marriages licenses. He was saying lets try it for two years. (would anyone allow a child molester to take care of their children for two years to see what happens?)

Is there a way for mass to amend the Mass constitution within 180 days?

As far as I know, Mass cannot amend the constitution in anywhere close to 180 days. I've been doing some research but I'm still not sure if there are any other avenues of blocking this ruling.

The one thing that has been brought up is that the court gave no "or else" What happens if the legislature DOESN'T change their laws in 180 days?

As for trying it for two years, there is no way that after two years of homosexual marriage happening it could be taken away. It has to stopped before the fact or the odds of doing anything about it get pretty low.
