Too many judges are striking down too many laws enacted by people's elected representatives.

On the other side one could argue that too many legislatures are attempting to enact unconstitutional laws.

Perhaps, but laws/norms on marriage between men and women predated the Constitution. They are not unconstitutional.

These laws are not unconstitutional and everybody, even the judges making the rulings pretending to say as much, know it.

These laws don't violate a Constitutional clause, they violate the Liberal egalitarian social engineers' beknighted sense of right and wrong.

In other words, its not "these are unconstitutional, therefore they are bad law" ... its "these are bad laws therefore they are unconstitutional."
