"Love vs. Virginia ruling in 1967 re: interracial marriage does not say at all that marriage is a RIGHT."

Interesting post. People disagree on this issue. However, I don't think you'll find me arguing that marriage is a right on this thread.

Thanks, I totally understand; just posting to anyone to get some views based on today's ruling. I always learn so much from the posters on Free Republic, and this thread is no different.

I am arguing basically that the court is misinterpreting Love vs. Virginia. Anyway, this will bring on such a backlash on gays that Matthew Shepard like attacks will be commonplace. Not threatening this, but it may come to that from this intrusion into heterosexual sanctity.
