No it doesn't. Every adult has an equal right to marry a person of the opposite sex. They can't marry their siblings, their kids, or animals and they can't marry people of the same sex either. It is not a violation of equal protection in the least. ----
I bet under equal protection any 2 non-married persons can get married.

New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer refused to block the New Paltz ceremonies and did not issue an opinion on whether the marriages were legal. "The validity of the marriages and the legality of the mayor's action will be determined in due course in the courts," Spitzer said.

I suspect you are right on this.
I have YET to see the actual code of California law this violates. Yes, I find it disturbing, but not surprising that this may not be illegal under the law in that State.
This is clearly an election year play for someone's benefit... Hillary?

Get a grip. That's what the liberals want you to think. Are you going to help them?

Why limit it to 2? If three or four love each other and want to form a family on what LOGICAL GROUNDS can it be opposed if we remove the current definition of marriage?
