Holding: Fourteenth Amendment requires a state to license a marriage between two people of the same sex.

5-4 decision

Scalia, in his dissent...

Those civil consequences—and the public approval that conferring the name of marriage evidences—can perhaps have adverse social effects, but no more adverse than the effects of many other controversial laws. So it is not of special importance to me what the law says about marriage. It is of overwhelming importance, however, who it is that rules me. Today’s decree says that my Ruler, and the Ruler of 320 million Americans coast-to-coast, is a majority of the nine lawyers on the Supreme Court.

I would say some are... The system of checks and balances in this country places the onus now on congress to fix this.

Good. The sooner the better. Then the rebuilding of America can begin.

Wait a minute-—

Do we get to be the victims now?????

[tcrlaf]

How soon until we get the first three or four-way gay “Marriage”?

Some of these rich media gays can support a large harem of “Wives”.

The suede denim secret police strike again.

Picking the next Supreme Court Justices should now be front and center for next presidential election. The majority of people are against this. Mark my word, there will be backlash as this sinks in.

You bet- Hillary will finish the rest of the court off.

Christians should now classify all marriages performed as “Christian Marriages” defined as between one man and one woman. This is our First Amendment right.

He was too invested in Obamacare. He wasn’t going to vote against it in any way.

[johniegrad]

Methinks the left has finally crossed a solid red line, and there will be monumental backlash over this, 1860's style

You and I share the same opinions about this matter, FRiend. But there will be no backlash. Nothing is going to happen.

When the revolution comes and the now inevitable dictator marches the leftists and the degenerates into the death camps I will not lift a finger to stop it.

Game over. This was predictable a decade ago. Kennedy delivered the coup d’grace.

The game is not over for the other side. They won’t stop until they force churches to honor these so-called marriages and perform them as well.

[Mr Rogers]

In the last couple of days, the US Supreme Court used the US Constitution as butt-wipe. Anyone thinking the US Constitution protects religious freedom needs to understand that the Constitution is totally meaningless now. IT NO LONGER EXISTS!

The Republic is dead! Long live the judicial monarchy that now rules us!

The only law that matters in the USA is how 5 justices feel. Period. And they aren’t going to feel friendly to Christians...

[KC_Lion]

I couldn't agree more Megan.

Honesty I look forward to that day.

How can this be overturned or even fixed now though?

How can this be overturned or even fixed now though?

A constitutional amendment. No chance of occurring.

If only the framers of the Constitution could see the fruits of their labor.

I rejoice that they can't, but they would respond differently.

They would be as revolted as we are but at least they would be grabbing for their muskets and storming the Court instead of merely lamenting on an internet forum while the spawn of the Devil celebrate on the courthouse steps and in the chambers of the Court on their mockery of God while they blaspheme His Word.

[tcrlaf]

“WHY???”

“Because we’re going to need it, that’s why.”

We may need it, but do we DESERVE IT?

Muskets do not stand much of a chance against tanks and hellfire missiles.
