Just another roadsign marking the Gaystapo attack on our Republic.
Yeah, let's hear the Log Samplin' Republicans issue a press release condemning these activist judges and their unconsitutional legislation from the bench.
Another jurist thinks he's a legislator.
That sums it up better than I could...
Gay marriage advocates say that those who oppose it and claim a "slippery slope" argument that it will lead to polygamy, bigamy, and a host of other forms of marriage are making a false argument and are just making outrageous claims.
They are wrong. It is the gay marriage advocates own arguments for gay marriage based on "equal protection" that will without question lead to these marriages and others. If it is a violation of a gay couples "equal protection" to deny them marriage, how is it not a violation of a others equal protection to deny them marriage as they want it?
My biggest disappointment in the whole gay marriage fiasco in SF was that no poligamists attempted to get a marriage license. What would they have done if a man and 2, 3, or 4 women attempted to get a license and be married? Would they have been turned away? If so, why? If not, why not?
It would have been a great exercise for some poligamists to have tried. Why none did is a question without an answer currently.
The whole matter should be discussed and based on a simple question. Does the government have the legitimate and proper authority to define marriage? If they answer yes, then that is the end of the line for gay marriage until they can get legislation passed granting state sanction of marriage upon gays.
If they answer no, then they have again (with their own argument) shown those talking of a slippery slope to be correct. For if the government does not have the legitimate authority to define marriage, then the other forms of marriage people are warning of (and gays are claiming is rediculous) must be allowed.
Rename the town "New P*tz".
predictable. SCOTUS will have to sort this one out too.

Judge disclares Christianity illegal.....well, maybe not for a few years, but that is the path we are headed down.
Hey, why not? The Constitution is whatever the judges say it is, right?
Preamble to the U.S. ConstitutionIf the Constitution is ordered to promoting the general welfare by securing the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, doesn't sodomy make a posterity impossible?We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Damn this insanity to hell.
You beat me to it by seconds!...............KA-CHING!!!
Polygamy is a hell of a lot more natural than sodomy. God even tolerated it in the OT. But no society has ever recognized sodomite "marriage." It's a contradiction in terms, among other things.
I think I'll find some little town, population about 87, with an elected town judge. I'll run for office and start playing God myself. There's a whole lotta things I look forward to holding unconstitutional ....

Actually, it's not a bad idea.
We desperately need to take our country back from judges. They utterly rule the country now, without check, and we let them. Look at this case: The case before him had NOTHING to do with whether banning gay marriage is constitutional. The case before him was about a public official breaking a law that was on the books, period. Yet this two-bit, TOWN JUSTICE goes through that law and establishes some tenuous grasp on another. It matters not what gets passed into law. If it's against the liberal cause, rest assured some judge somewhere will find a way to set it aside.
At some point, someone must stand up and say, SCREW YOU, and enforce the law anyway.

Nope, "gay marriage" is simply a step on the way to the socialist utopia where marriage itself is nonexistent, and children exist only for the purpose of being sexually exploited by adults.
There is a lot of fun to be had here. I figure I could be sworn in at 9. By ten, I'd have arrest warrants out on a couple of dozen international bad guys of the left. By eleven, I'd find that the unborn have a consitutional right to life, outlaw compulsory union dues in politics (which seriously ought to be done, and incidentally bankrupting the democrat party is just icing on the cake), overturn the Federal Elections Act, and order complete school choice on equal protection grounds.
Even with a coffee break and long lunch, I figure I could straighten out the country by about three in the afternoon.
All it would take is to have the petitioners lined up ready to go first thing in the morning. On the precedent of the Florida Supreme Court, even that might not be necessary -- I could just act on my own motion, and cite democrats as to why that's legitimate. Oh, to be a judge ....
So New Yorker's do not need to obey laws this judge doesn't like? How nice.
