My expectation is that they will prevail in overturning the amendment, given other recent rulings in other states.

The fact that we have an airhead for an AG won’t help.

It is so unfair that these homo activists always run to the most liberal court in the state. With that a Miami judge will dictate what happens in the Florida panhandle.

Time to abandon civil marriage. The feral government punishes marriage anyway. Get married in the Church, but don’t bother with the legalities.

Some of these courts need to be abolished and burned.

“Marriage” has always been between man and woman. How can homosexuals claim the law is not being applied equally? Have men & women been prevented from marrying?

What homosexuals want is to change the meaning of a word and then claim that they are being excluded from application of this new definition.

If the meaning of words can be altered then there are no limits.

Homosexuality is sexual perversion and a mental issue.

Abolish no fault divorce. The notion that marriage is truly a lifelong commitment will cause gays to run like rats, and it will strengthen traditional marriage for the rest of us at the same time.

Unfortunately, the same-sex marriage advocates will likely find a sympathetic liberal judge to entertain their attempt to overthrow Florida law that defines marriage the way every society has defined it for millenniums: as between a man and a woman. Using twisted interpretations of the Constitution to overthrow the people’s will is now SOP for leftists and especially the homosexual lobby. Sadly, they often win.

... so they have resorted to trying to find renegade courts who have little respect for the rule of law to create social change that would never happen through the people or their elected representatives," John Stemberger, FFPC president and general counsel, said in a statement.

As mentioned in related threads, the reason that renegade courts get away with protecting so-called gay rights is the following imo. Sadly, citizens are not being taught that the Constitution's silence about things like marriage means that marriage is uniquely a state power issue. Citizens are also not being taught that the states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect gay rights.

The consequence of widespread citizen ignorance concerning 10th Amendment-protected marriage and constitutionally unprotected gay rights is this. All that pro-gay activist judges have to say is that gay marriage is constitutional and nobody, evidently including law-school indoctrinated attornies, knows how to challenge major constitutional problems with such decisions.

It remains that the states are actually free to make laws which discriminate against things like gay marriage, as long as such laws don't also unreasonably abridge constitutionally enumerated rights.

Liberals are perpetually unhappy with the world we live in.

In Florida alone, they now want to overthrow the marriage law, overthrow the law making pot illegal, overthrow the Stand Your Ground law.

And you can bet they have a long list of other things they want to change too.

It must be a miserable life, being a liberal and hating just about everything in your life, hating your country, hating the US Constitution, despizing the Founding Fathers, hating half of your neighbors and the half of the entire US population who think differently than you do.

Liberals demand tolerance i every aspect of life except for people and ideas they don’t agree with.

“Gays”, queers, homosexuals can attempt to change or legislate their view of morality, but as for me, they are now, and ever will be, a stain on society, period.
