Seriously, it’s not about “getting married” for the activists -
it’s about undefining marriage, removing the pillar of our society.
Evidence - only 5% of “gay” couples get married in Canada where it’s fully legal.
I agree, for some it is about undefining marriage altogether. But that is not what pushes four out of seven justices to render their ridiculous decisions.
I'll expand on that. For the judges, and many proponents of gay marriage (not necessarily activists), it is truly about eradicating so-called "second-class citizen" status. Western civilization is very strong on universals, sometimes to its detriment. The by-product of that universalism is that fighting discrimination has legitimacy that resonates deeply with folks.
The counter-rhetoric spoken to defeat judicial activism in this and other cases, to be more successful may present a view that doesn't ignore the sense of fairness driving those undesirable decisions.
