>>>These activist judges need to be removed from office, either by recall (if applicable) or impeachment.

This was the only decision the judges could have reached under the backdrop of current law.

I discussed this last year on a thread regarding the Florida anti-gay marriage campaign

“”Ultimately a waste of time I think. Eventually the matter will be before the Supreme Court where the United States Constitution’s “Full Faith and Credit Clause” will trump the local restrictions.

Florida can choose to set its own restrictions on marriages performed in that jurisdiction, but legal marriages from elsewhere are legally binding on Florida and any other state. To illustrate, consider how different states set varying age requirements for marriage, but the marriage isn’t void when moving to a state that sets a higher age. And interstate travel to marry in a more accommodating state is already common.

You also had the same situation in the old days when divorce was much more limited. People got around this by going to Nevada for a quickie divorce the original restrictive state was forced to recognize.

Absent a federal constitutional amendment, which apparently isn’t going to happen, I really see no other final outcome.””

That’s why it’s important to have more conservative justices that understand the folly of “same sex” marriages.

Which is exactly why I've been calling for a constitutional marriage amendment since this BS first started. Those "conservatives" who oppose the federal amendment are not conservatives at all. They're fools, cowards, or crypto-homo shills.
