U.S. District Judge Rules Oklahoma Ban on Marriage Equality Unconstitutional
Human Rights Campaign ^ | January 14, 2014 | HRC staff

Posted on 01/14/2014 2:33:09 PM PST by BurningOak

Today U.S. District Judge Terence Kern ruled that Oklahoma’s ban on marriage equality is unconstitutional. His ruling is stayed pending appeal, meaning marriages will not occur immediately in the Sooner State.

...

The ruling comes on the heels of a year-long string of electoral, judicial and legislative victories for marriage equality. In recent weeks both the New Mexico Supreme Court and a federal district judge in Utah have ruled in favor of marriage for lesbian and gay couples.

It’s not marriage.

But let’s push this out to its logical conclusion... There are NO relationships that the government can ban and must recognize.

It is all rather insidious as all the gays need to do is find a federal judge appointed by Clinton or Obama, go to court and cite the 14th Amendment as well as the SCOTUS DOMA decision and the judge will rule in their favor.

Unfortunately, it’s just a matter of time. They have been able to brainwash all young people, so they’re just waiting for enough of the old people to die off.

“The solution is to just not heed the judge’s ruling

Queers that think they are married should be sternly advised to move to California”

Doesn’t work that way. Oh, state governments can cry and moan and bloviate and appeal and postpone and otherwise buy time. However, sooner or later the Supreme Court will declare for the federal government (as always) and the governor of the obstinate state will get a polite phone call from the White House. For decades states have leeched millions from the federal government, faced with the threat of financial retribution, state governments will fold like cheap lawn chairs.

Their chain of enslavement. It must be broken. WE must take back control of the states from the Uniparty.

As someone who has suffered through two bad marriages and would never do it again, I believe in everyone’s right to subject themselves to that misery.

Traditional marriage is illegal in all 50 states.

Excellent point. My hat is off.

This isn't so much about brainwashing anyone, only about installing their own Marxists in seats of power on the courts. They've been doing this for decades.

This is one Leftist's opinion, against tens of millions of citizens.

My question is, why hasn’t the Oklahoma state guard (or the equivalent) been activated for war?

“This is one Leftist’s opinion, against tens of millions of citizens.”

That is 50% true. Sure its one judge against millions. But it is one judge against millions of people who are too busy playing games on their mobile phones, watching sports, trolling for online pornography, and reading gossip sites. Judge knew his ruling would be met with a collective shrug. No Russian judge would dare pull something like that.

And Obastard is busy packing the courts with pro-homosexual activists who will decide that 98% of the country must bend over for the 2% in the name of “fairness”.

I somewhat agree with you. Most Americans have been lulled into a terminal malaise.

A federal government that regards two perverted homos as a genuine married husband-and-wife is a federal government I view as without any legitimacy. I’ll happily see the country burn to the ground first. And I’d even do my best to lend the matches to get it started.

Hell, the US Constitution is toilet paper to federal judges.

Yes it has. They faxed Obama and are awaiting instructions from their master. All large state level law/paramilitary organizations are federally owned, and mercenaries answer to whoever pays them. When you accept federal funding for your national guard units, you also accept the strings attached.
