For me this is the fundamental question. To have the clear will of the people overridden by an arbitrary decision of a few ideologues is tyranny. And it is completely arbitrary. Nothing in the US Constitution prohibits the people from defining marriage. If this ruling and Obamacare stand, the people are powerless against the State. The government will be able to twist the Constitution into any shape it chooses and the people will be unable to redress grievances by explicitly changing the Constitution.
my question too.
If the people cannot do an amendment as this was done then how do the people do a constitutional amendment?
This is judicial tyranny at it’s finest.
What was their argument saying it was unconstitutional because I see no where it states two homosexuals can marry each other but i do understand that the Govt derives it’s power from the people.
The people voted and was told they have to do an amendment.
They did an amendment and now these activists say it is not legal s I ma interested in how they explain that and surely there has to be one person left in Govt who can go after this court and call them out and this 9th district is plain out and out activists.
“The questions remains - how do the American people change their Constitution for a say in how government operates?”
