I am trying to approach this from a legal and constitional framework. Marriage (like drivers licenses) is regulated by the states.

The liberals now use the 14th Amendment to justify everything under the sun, even though its only intent was to confer the same rights to newly freed slaves as everyone else.

Yes, I am beginning to think that everytime a COTUS ammendment happens or a piece of legislation is produced, it should have attached to it a clear statement as to the reason and intent the legislation and a disclaimer that it cannot be used in other cases outside the original intent.

The 14th Ammendment being a prime example.
