My Gay neighbor is on pins and needles.
http://news.yahoo.com/justices-must-act-fast-gay-marriage-settled-june-083801891.html WASHINGTON (AP) — Setting the stage for a potentially historic ruling, the Supreme Court announced Friday it will decide whether same-sex couples have a right to marry everywhere in America under the Constitution. The justices will take up gay-rights cases that ask them to overturn bans in four states and declare for the entire nation that people can marry the partners of their choice, regardless of gender. The cases will be argued in April, and a decision is expected by late June. Proponents of same-sex marriage said they expect the court to settle the matter once and for all with a decision that invalidates state provisions that define marriage as between a man and a woman. |

For about the same cost of a JOTP and a marriage license, any two persons can have a trust drawn up that outlines property rights not unlike what state statutes recognize for legally married individuals. But fine... you want be able to get married and call it a marriage? Fine. Just get it over with. Here's your piece of paper. Now you have property rights and visitation rights and all that other bullshit blah blah blah. Now sit down and shut the fuck up.

I would bet all my wealth on the outcome. It will be 8-1 in favor of sodomite 'marriage'. Just wait and see.

We must quickly disabuse ourselves of the selfish model of marriage.
"I grew up with a parent and her partner[s] in an atmosphere in which gay ideology was used as a tool of repression, retribution and abuse," wrote B.N. Klein of her lesbian mother. "I have seen that children in gay households often become props to be publicly [sic] displayed to prove that gay families are just like heterosexual ones." http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/children-gay-parents-testify-against-same-sex-marriage |

So many will applaud the erosion of State's rights...... View Quote Despite believing gay marriage should be allowed in all states just because it is the right thing, I also am very troubled that this has become an issue that has been forced upon states - even though polls show around 60% overall in favor of it nationwide. And I never applaud the erosion of states rights as I have the ability to comprehend that just because I wish for this issue to happen, the next thing - like gun control - I do not want to happen so it is best the Feds stay out of things and let them be resolved at the state level as you can always move states if you are so inclined, but cannot easily move countries. |

Gays want State's Rights when States choose Gay Unions but are against States Rights when States don't want Gay Unions. Well guess what, you can't have it both ways and we already have a 10th Amendment that gives States Rights.

Just wait until they start suing churches for the right to marry in the church halls. If you think I am wrong look up the dead dyke threads and read about the Liberaltardians decrying the fact that businesses like churches are not properly taxed. Scratch most of those clowns and the statist liberal comes bleeding through. |

But many at both ends I think can agree that it should be something decided at the state level, no? |

I wholeheartedly support the rights of gays to be every bit as miserable as heterosexuals, and to risk losing half their shit in divorces.
Beyond that, It is none of the government's business who marries one another (given consenting adults). I also have a HUGE issue with fringe elements of the gay community who are waiting for the second that same sex marriages are federally recognized to unleash a torrent of lawsuits on various churches and religious organizations, forcing them (potentially at the barrel of a government gun) to conduct said marriages, despite them being against the tenants of their faith. |

they can decide on gays marrying, but they can not give me a definitive ruling on my 2nd amendment rights.
Fuck them all. |

It's obvious how it SHOULD be ruled.
But it wont. Why? Slavery. |

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.. Not my business to stop people from enjoying life when it has no impact on me and mine, whether or no i agree with their lifestyle is a moot point..

Id venture to guess you'd hear something like "it'll lead to Churches being forced at gunpoint to marry teh ghays," a very interesting discussion as far as slippery slopes go. You might hear the argument that teh gayz' lifestyle is eroding our cultural morality and the acceptance of such lifestyle, and with it gay marriage, leads to the welfare state and free shit army. The latter argument is always one of my favorite mental gymnastic arguments I read on this site. |

Why can't the religious right get it through their thick skulls that they have no right to tell anyone else how to live? Consenting adults should be the law of the land. You want individual rights when it comes to your pet issues, but you have the audacity to micromanage someone's life when their lifestyle is not to your specification? Seriously, people like that are beyond infuriating. Adhere to a standard FFS.
