So you support polygamy, and you think that Christian America stopping it defines Americans as zealots.

That is a bold take. Anti-American, and anti-Christian, but bold, well, actually in today’s modern America, I guess that it is just another lefty cause to further corrupt our nation.

No, I don’t support polygamy, but that’s the way the case law is now going to go. Court decisions have consequences, and conservatives lost this one quite some time ago because they enshrined the issue of marriage in federal law instead of leaving it to the states. After that was done, all it took was action at the federal level to start chipping away at this issue.

This is the same reason why I don’t support a national CCW reciprocity legislation, nor a national CCW law. I don’t want to give the federal government any more rights.

It is highly amusing (at times) to see how supposed “conservatives” like to tout 10th Amendment rights for states... when it suits them. It is far less amusing to see them chuck federalism and states’ rights overboard as soon as they start dispensing their unctuous moral preening, and then either ironic or dismaying to see how the inevitable “own goal” develops.
