Kentucky Clerk Is Jailed For Refusal to Issue Marriage Licenses As A Result Of Her Religious Beliefs

Quote:I'm sorry, gay marriage isn't a federal matter. Technically marriage isn't a government matter at all. Instead of going the proper routes through the legislature the pro-gay marriage crowd went for redefinition by judicial fiat, the antithesis of the Constitution. Someday it will be a ruling that you don't favor and you'll [BAD WORD REMOVED] and moan about how awful it is to be ruled by 9 Oligarchs, and I'll just sit back and say "You let it happen." 

 

That's my issue with you guys on most of these matters, as long as you get what you think you want now you have no concern for the precedent you're setting and how it will come back to bite you in the [BAD WORD REMOVED] someday. But that's just my hate and fear talking, because humans have never ever abused the power of government before in history and we have nothing to worry about.
You are so completely wrong in your assumptions I don't even know where to start.

 

I'm sorry but marriage is a federal matter that's just the way it is and has been for a while therefore it had to be addressed since states were discriminating against American citizens. I know you wholeheartedly approve of this but the majority of the country and the supreme court did not. They were in direct violation of the constitution so a ruling was made, the same kind that affirms gun ownership by citizens but Im sure that was government over reach as well.

 

This is the differences between you anti government knuckleheads and the rest of us. When you do don't like something like in the case of the this supreme court ruling that gasp all people are created equal you cry and moan and scream religious persecution of governmental over reach by 9 unelected justices. You get presidential candidates to tell people to practice unconstitutional acts.

 

Liberals clearly dislike the ruling in the case of Citizens United. So what are some of us doing? Telling people to willfully go against the ruling of constitutionality? No because that is dumb.  We decide to try to get a convention to add an amendment so it's not constitutional anymore. Why don't you try that? I am sure it would be easy peasy to get an amendment passed to allow discrimination based on well I guess anything if you had your way. 

 

This is just another instance of you guys thinking you are all star spangled patriotic because you love the constitution and the country but in fact you really don't like America. You like 50 years ago America but definitely not the modern one we have now. If whining about not being able to discriminate against fellow Americans makes you feel better knock yourself but that's in the past.
