I would have no problem if the court did the opposite and stuck down “gay” “marriage” laws in every state, as they should. States have no right to sanction nonsense like that.

“I would have no problem if the court did the opposite and stuck down “gay” “marriage” laws in every state, as they should. States have no right to sanction nonsense like that.”

Then you can’t complain when SCOTUS imposes gay marriage on the rest of the nation later this year.

States Rights isn’t something to be casually tossed aside when states do things you don’t like. States may make bad choices, but that’s the beauty of our system; you don’t like public policy in your state, you can either choose to campaign against it or move to a state more to your liking.

We must be consistent in our principles.
