A federal judge has struck down Oregon's same-sex marriage ban, saying it is unconstitutional.
U.S. District Judge Michael McShane threw out the voter-approved ban Monday.
Bull Crap! He could have certainly read the Constitution and found the 10th amendment. It is right there in black and white and is every bit as valid as the 14th amendment and is even easier to understand.
What it is outright lawlessness.
We are no longer a country of laws and it is only going to get worse in the future.
I am afraid that the only recourse for this and other more important ways that the Federal Judiciary is running rough shod over the will of the people it is going to lead to an armed and bloody revolt by a significant number of the American people.
What the Hell good is it to pass Constitutional Amendments by a valid vote of the people if one Judge in collusion with the plaintiffs and the elected officials decide to ignore whatever law they like.
I’ll pose this same series of questions on each thread that has another h=judge violating God’s laws and the rights of the several states ...
Just what are we supposed to do about these unelected federal tyrants that continue to push perversion against the will of the people of the several states?
We cannot vote them out, and they do not give a rat’s tail about our objections to their activism.
Are we supposed to just stand around and take it while they destroy every last vestige of decency so to give the sodomite reprobates all they need to totally destroy whatever is left of marriage?
Where do we draw the line and what do we do to stop these politically corrupt and morally bankrupt black robed monsters?
To everyone who thought that the outcome of Lawrence v. Texas was reasonable: does this convince you otherwise? Homosexuals will not be satisfied until Christianity is outlawed; “Christian libertarians” would do best to realize this. If we don’t try to criminalize homosexuality, then they’ll beat us to the punch.
Now just a cotton pickin’ minit here. Let’s be fair. They have a constitutional right to stick their heads in dark and smelly places, going back to the founders. Why, how many brave men and boys in Valley Forge, cut off from wives and girlfriends, starving and freezing, simultaneously kept each other warm and hauled out their respective ashes by sticking their heads down there. How many of their women did the same in those long months, and ate some rug. Gay sex is therefore not only a constitutional right, but is indeed educational and ought to be required in sex ed classes everywhere.
Not in Maine, Maryland, Minnesota and Washington.
Gay marriage was adopted legislatively in ten states and DC. It would pass easily were it before the legislature in several other states where it was legalized by court action.
The way to restore marriage as a religious sacrament is to do just that. The Orthodox and conservative churches need to reach an accord that marriage is exclusively a religious sacrament reserved to them, and to not recognize secular marriage as legitimate.
The important thing is not recognizing other forms of marriage as legitimate. And this includes other religions who do not adhere to traditional marriage as a sacrament.
It means they must go back to recording all marriages they conduct, and sharing that list of who is married among themselves.
The political process has outlived its usefulness. It is no longer valid in a thoroughly corrupt government, because any valid decisions made are ignored and neutralized by an oligarchy or by petty tyrants.
What these “get-the-government-out-of-the-’marriage-business’” people actually mean is that they want the government IN the civil union business. In other words, find the lowest common denominator relationship designation to apply to everyone, including blood relatives and multiples. Effectively, they want everyone effectively “married” through a back door.
If you press them hard enough they will admit this. They WANT the abolition of marriage.
Yep. I thought my sarcasm was evident. It’s strong delusion to think elections, passing bills, or even referendums have any weight.
Ah, got it. Still too early for coffee to kick in.
Bingo. So bring the case and make it so!
We have a winner. But it does not have to be coordinated by the pansies directly.
More by the puppet masters.
Perhaps by NAMBLA and the MUSLIMS in alliances for pedophilia and polygamy.
Nope. Let’s try winning at the polls and impeachment proceedings. (Judicial)
“If marriage is not the union of one man and one woman, then it’s nothing. Anything goes. Marry your chickens, a half dozen goats, your sister, your buick, your rabbit. Hell, marry anything you want to marry. Who’s to tell you no?”

How about a Ferris wheel?
Amazing that OR banned homo marriage at all.
Yes, but I do not think it has never been passed by a public referendum. Traditional Marriage has been upheld by around 36 states through referendum.
The point being: Leftist hate democracy and the will of the people. They greatly prefer the dictates of judges. It is easy to judge shop for the outcome they desire.
But the left doesn't abide by integrity, judicial precedent, or the Constitution.
It was passed by public vote in Washington, Maine and Maryland. An initiative to write a ban on same-sex marriage into the Minnesota state constitution was rejected by the voters.
