No one is surprised, right? The votes of the people mean NOTHING to the leftwing judges.

Yet another issue for the Democrats and RINOs to deal with this November.

I’ve been needing a new flat screen.

No, it means that as of 2:00 PM Pacific Time, gay marriage is legal again in California. The rulings in other states banning gay marriage are not affected by this decision until and unless it reaches the SCOTUS.

This will make more people in this country turn against the liberal judges.

Where is abortion mentioned? It doesn’t matter - the courts now makes the rules.

The State should get out of the marriage business entirely. I’d rather have it eliminated than have it redefined like this. It’s meaningless now. You want to have kids with someone? Draw up a contract.

You don't seriously think the USSC would sustain this?

I suspect you will see the Gubernator NOT appealing this case to the 9th ~ and it'll just die.

What you will need to do is run another referendum, and keep on doing that until you have some trustworthy individuals in your state government's leadership positions, and several federal judges out there die ~ or retire (although it is preferable they simply pass on to the other side ~ where Satan awaits them ~ else they continue to serve as judges on a part time basis and can continue to create mischief).

No. Only minorities have the right to riot and destroy property. If you do it, you're ...

Wait for it ...

RACIST!

What really underscores the "stigmas" is AIDS.

As long as homosexual males continue to spread AIDS and kill people they'll really have a difficult time eliciting any sympathy from serious minded people.

Judge Napolitano said on Cavuto just now that he thinks there'll be a 5-4 SCOTUS decision upholding this ruling with Kennedy voting with the liberals. He bases that opinion on a previous ruling in Colorado in which Kennedy voted to invalidate a law interfering with gay rights.

Then the law that required only men register for the draft is a violation of equal protection.

I guess as long as it is a six year old boy and not a girl for these perverts.

Ideological and idiotic “decision” using 138 pages to strike down one sensible sentence...

They took a stand for their side; other than that, it means nothing - either way it was going to be decided in SCOTUS, so it was a political freebie for 9th Circus.
