Yes, but that is the 14th Amendment which specifically prohibits discrimination based on race. It doesn't mention sexual orientation. Personally, I think the laws are dumb, but the Supreme Court can't simply announce that it is adding a constitutional right that does not exist. If they can do that, then they can do anything, and the Constitution means nothing.

"No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

Are you crazy?
