An Appellate decision by the USSC CANNOT APPLY to Any State, It can only be applied to the case at hand. only those cases heard in their ‘Original Jurisdiction” at the supreme Court level apply to States.
Read section 2 closely and remember the word “SHALL” means it is MANDATORY, Not an Option.
Just because the supreme Court refuses to abide the Constitution does not mean STATES have to go along with it.
Article 3, section 2:
In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction. In all the other Cases before mentioned, the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to Law and Fact, with such Exceptions, and under such Regulations as the Congress shall make.
USSC in Obergefell:
No union is more profound than marriage, for it embodies the highest ideals of love, fidelity, devotion, sacrifice, and family. In forming a marital union, two people become something greater than once they were. As some of the petitioners in these cases demonstrate, marriage embodies a love that may endure even past death. It would misunderstand these men and women to say they disrespect the idea of marriage. Their plea is that they do respect it, respect it so deeply that they seek to find its fulfillment for themselves. Their hope is not to be condemned to live in loneliness, excluded from one of civilizations oldest institutions. They ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law. The Constitution grants them that right.
What a whopper, “the Constitution grants them that right, as if the Constitution grants rights at all!
Their irrationality continues:
The Court, in this decision, holds same-sex couples may exercise the fundamental right to marry in all States. It follows that the Court also must hold - and it now does hold - that there is no lawful basis for a State to refuse to recognize a lawful same-sex marriage performed in another State on the ground of its same-sex character.
Utter claptrap.
States must defend their people from this illicit action.
Kennedy, Ginsburg, Breyer, Sotomayor, and Kagan have brought disrepute upon the Court. They have sown chaos in the States (Rowan County, Kentucky is not the only place where people refuse to comply). They have shamed themselves and their profession. They have exercised the power of their office beyond the bounds of the authority of that office to lawlessly impose their radical views through mere color of law. (In short, to impose their radical views they have abused the stature of the Court, thus bringing disrepute upon the Court and themselves, and causing disorder and confusion within the States.)
Kennedy, Ginsburg, Breyer, Sotomayor, and Kagan must be impeached.
