This case will be laughed out of court.

The supreme court did not make gay marriage legal, it merely struck down laws that make gay sex illegal.

There are no laws against having sex or affairs with multiple partners.

However, if there are any polygamists in Massachusetts, they might have a fighting chance with the courts there.

Yes. I expect a Mass. court to approve polygamy sometime in the next 5 years -- and with Full Faith and Credit, that means that polygamy becomes legal in every state.

A Constitutional Amendment can stop it. Probably nothing else has the power to do so.

Is it not ironic, that the law allows sleeping around--even orgies-yet forbids a form of marriage?
