I would certainly support a vote in the USA. It won’t get 20% for gay marriage. I am so looking forward to the Supreme court ruling. There is no way the Court will support gay marriage. If they do you will have polygamy and can marry a dog.

In some of the more liberal states it could carry. Overall it would be a flop.

“There is no way the Court will support gay marriage. If they do you will have polygamy and can marry a dog.”

I hope you’re right, but the guess here is 5-4 for the homos. Roberts and Kennedy will “swing or swish” it.

To: mrs ippi; Amendment10

There is no way for the court to legally or morally mandate homosexual “marriage” on the States, but that won’t stop them. Ask yourself why we had to have constitutional amendments to let women vote (19th), abolish slavery (13th), control production, transport, and sale of alcohol (18th), and collect an income tax (16th). The answer: because all powers not specifically granted to the federal government by the constitution are reserved to the States or We the People.

A nationwide majority vote cannot legally pass homosexual “marriage” on all the States. Nor can a majority ruling (aka vote) of the Supreme Court mandate it. There is simply nothing in the US Constitution that grants homosexuals the right to marry. Homosexuals are not a protected class. Freedom of religion, on the other hand, is a specifically enumerated and protected constitutional right.

So, again, they cannot legally or morally mandate homosexual “marriage” on the States, but it won’t stop them. They’ll obfuscate with all sorts of legal mumble jumble, but homosexual “marriage” is not in the US Constitution—not even in a very broadly (re)defined 14th Amendment. Why? Because the 14th only applies to constitutionally enumerated rights of which homosexuality is not.

BTW, the homosexualists could legally impose homosexual marriage on the States with a constitutional amendment, but they don’t have the votes. That’s why they’re using the courts. Why follow civilized behavior (playing by the rules) when it’s easier to lie and cheat? That’s the left’s modus operandi in a nutshell.
