It isn’t Gay Marriage, it’s restoring States Rights.

The Gay Marriage part of the SCOTUS Decision was a distraction, a shiny thing that everyone fixated on.

Nothing but a slight of hand used as a reason to eviscerate the Tenth Amendment and begin the attack on Religious Freedom Rights included in the First Amendment, their next Target.

The States should be the final Arbitor on Gay Marriage, just as they currently are regarding Incestuous and Polygamous Marriage. While all States prohibit Polygamous Marriage, Laws pertaining to Incestuous Marriage vary from State to State.

Individual States also mandate Age of Consent and Age of Consent for Marriage. The SCOTUS Ruling will require a National Standard as well.

What has happened is that Americans who disagreed with certain State Laws HAD the option of moving to another State that they felt followed their Beliefs such as Faith, Political and Societal. Now the SCOTUS has robbed them of that choice to a degree.

We are no better than the Old Soviet Union in that regard.

I forgot one little thing.

A Liberal will make States Rights a Racial component, accusing Conservatives that dislike Minorities of escaping to a less diverse White dominated State.

In that case, you can remind them that their favorite Socialist Bernie Sanders comes for the Whitest of White States, Vermont. Less than Two Percent of the Population is Black, and all other Minority Groups are relegated to about One Percent each. Vermont looks just like America. LOL

Oh yeah, just to make their Heads explode, explain that Vermont, like Alaska and Arizona have Constitutional Carry Firearm Laws.

I’m sure Bernie Sanders will make that a National Mandate as POTUS when he gets his hands on a Pen and Phone.
