The Supreme Court has to right to even hear a case like this. It’s a state issue.

And it’s not about equality or discrimination. The color of ones skin is much different than sexual orientation when it comes to law.

“The Supreme Court has [no] right to even hear a case like this. It’s a state issue.”


Given that theses judges are striking down state constitutional amendments defining marriage as the union of one man and one woman, because they supposedly violate the U.S. Constitution, the U.S. Supreme Court has not only the right, but the obligation, to settle the matter. The correct answer, of course, is that nothing in the U.S. Constitution prohibits a state from defining marriage as the union of one man and one woman, but until SCOTUS so rules we’ll keep having rogue judges imposing same-sex marriage by judicial fiat through their outrageous interpretation of the 14th Amendment.
