District courts have been falling in line like dominoes. It's almost as if it's been choreographed.

Undoubtedly hoping to steamroll SCOTUS with precedent.

Sick.

And disappointing. This was a George W Bush judge, recommended by Senators Sessions & Shelby.

What the hell?

May all these ungodly Judges rue the day they chose evil over good against the people’s will.

"an irrational way of promoting biological relationships"

What's that supposed to mean?

"There has been no evidence presented that these marriage laws have any effect on the choices of couples to have or raise children, whether they are same-sex couples or opposite-sex couples. In sum, the laws in question are an irrational way of promoting biological relationships in Alabama," wrote Federal District Court Judge Callie V.S. Granade.

Amazingly stupid - overwhelmingly so. This judge wasn't qualified to graduate from grade school, let alone get a law degree. No concept of language. Two people of the same sex cannot be husband and wife - in case this judge was not aware, only a man can be a husband, and only a woman can be a wife. The judiciary has no authority to ignore the meaning of words or language. What is so difficult about this to understand?

In sum, the judge is an ignorant dolt.

Somebody go back and teach this person the basics about the birds and the bees!

Why even have Congress to pass laws? soetoro ignores the ones he chooses and activist judges strike down others that were duly passed by the will of the people.

We peasants are irrelevant.

I don’t know much about the ways of queers, nor do I want to...

However, it seems to me that there are certain biological issues involved here.

You can stick your wiener in anything you like, perhaps a donut from dunkin donuts, but that doesn’t make you married to Dunkin or the Donut...

These people need to get a life.

Callie Granade is the same fascist who last summer ruled against a Catholic group that sued over the Obamacare sterilization and birth control mandates.

Homosexuals can not reproduce, judge. Marriage laws are promote a beneficial environment for the children produced by heterosexuals.

Why bother with having a legislature? Just set up an oligarchy of judges and save the fiction of government by the people for the people for the history books.

...struck down the state's ban on same-sex marriage, bringing the number of states that allow same-sex couples to marry to 37.

This is a lie. NONE, I say again, NONE of those states allow same sex marriage. They are being threatened by the federal government if they don't comply, but their state laws forbid it. In other words, the people of each of these states are being forced to violate their own laws at federal gun point. A ballsy state governor could nullify this (along with a ballsy state legislature) by simply refusing to comply. The fed gov would not have the balls to start CWII over it.

However, balls are in short supply in all levels of government these days. It only remains to be seen whether the people have the balls to quit being slaves.

Homos and their friends and enablers are everywhere in business and government.

If the judicial branch insists on legislating from the bench, then it should be subject to the same checks as the legislative branch- that is, its members should be elected for finite terms and ideally term limited.

With all due respect to the judge, he is wrongly ignoring the Constitution in the following way imo. The states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect gay rights issues such as gay marriage. So no judges or justices have any constitutionally enumerated gay rights protections to apply to the states via the 14th Amendment to stop any state from making 10th Amendment-protected laws which prohibit constitutionally unprotected gay marriage.

Gosh, I don’t recall the federal government EVER being granted the power to tell a state how to define marriage within its own borders.

The Tenth amendment applies.
