California Asks Judges: Gay or Straight?

In order to make sure gays and lesbians are adequately represented on the judicial bench, the state of California is requiring all judges and justices to reveal their sexual orientation. The announcement was made in an internal memo sent to all California judges and justices.

Philip R. Carrizosa of the executive office of communications at the Judicial Council of California, the Administrative Office of the Courts, confirmed the authenticity of Price’s email regarding gender identification and sexual orientation to THE WEEKLY STANDARD.

The original bill, which simply provided for 50 new judgeships, was amended in the Assembly in August 2006, to address concerns that Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger was not appointing enough women and minorities to the bench. In 2011, Senator Ellen Corbett expanded the reporting requirement to include gender identification and sexual orientation.

...as a result of Corbett’s 2011 California bill, the office has “expanded the collection and release of aggregate demographic data to include gender identification and sexual orientation.” Therefore, Price explains, judges and justices must reveal their “sexual orientation,” in addition “to their race/ethnicity [and] gender identification.”

How you use your private parts has now become more important than being of a sound mind.

Why stop at requiring answers on questionnaires? I DEMAND VIDEOTAPED PROOF of sexual orientation. Of course, this will include video proof of LACK of “interest” in one gender or the other (unless the judge indicates bisexuality ... in which case, of course, we will need proof of THAT).

They need to know their sexual orientation and yet they are not supposed to let the public know their political orientation?....California is off the reservation!

The false assumption is that in order to ensure a pro-homosexual decision you must promote one. But that skews the whole process as there are already plenty of representatives for homosexuals, who are not homosexual themselves! This only adds to the biased total.

Sounds like the “Are you now or have you ever been affiliated with...” line of McCarthy-era questioning that the left loves to dwell on.

A judge is supposed to be objective. Their personal lives should be irrelevant. If the judges believe such questioning is appropriate, they should be denied being appointed as judges.

Let me get the facts straight. Homosexuals make up 4% of the United States population and they need equal representation.

I wonder what % of Christians are represented on the bench? I believe they make up 80% of the population.

Sooooo, how many homo CA judges are they going to FIRE to make things equal to the percentage of homos in “society” (or will it be reflective of CA or San Fran society)???

Yes-—it is to destroy rational thought (Christian Paradigm)—reason and logic used to be essential for everything and the foundation of Just Law—now urges trump reason-—identity trumps reason—to destroy us from within.

The homosexual movement was founded by Hay who was sodomized as a boy and loved it—he was a Communist and wanted Man/boy “love” made legal.

Homosexual acts are ALWAYS evil—they demean the human body in nihilistic ways. We need to call sodomy Evil again—to regain not only logic and reason-—but Virtue—the Christian Virtue-—not the paganism of the Ancient Greeks, and Samurai and today’s muslims who sodomize boys for recreation.

We need Judeo-Christian Ethics which is the Foundation of Just Law—and Natural Rights from God. There is NO right to sodomy. It should not be encouraged by law since it promotes evil, demeaning behavior, never Virtue which is the reason for Just Law and Contracts.
