Not impressed by the old days.

Then you really do think you're brighter than our Founding Fathers. Heck, you think you're brighter than Moses. I suspected as much. You worship the zeitgeist.

BTW, how was slavery abolished in America, and how were women given the vote?

Here's a hint: It wasn't because someone like you showed up and declared the right to be "happy" to be an inherent right, followed by an assertion that "happiness" requires slave emancipation and female suffrage. Quite the contrary, it took constitutional amendments to make those changes because your idea of a "happiness right" is an idiocy, and in saner times it would have been treated as such.

So you’re advocating a constitutional right TO have gay marriage? My guess is you’re actually advocating a constitutional amendment to restrict rights. A nefarious purpose for changing the constitution of a state.
