How about when a gang of them come marching down your street in snappy black uniforms and kicking your door in?

It will take all of them. They’re only 2% of the population. My neighbors and I could take them down to 1% I believe.

Also, when Adolf began his reign, how many Nazis were there? Not many. The people caved immeadiately.

I wonder if this decision might cause some red states to start eliminate all state-sanctioning of marriage. I would like to see a movement in this direction. It is the most reasonable response to an “un-defining” of marriage. If marriage no longer has a definition, why even try to sanction it?

Spoke to my parish priest this morning about the case. We did not know the decision at that time.

He basically said he would not take part in a gay marriage, and would go to prison before he did.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Heard Judge Napolitano today (he was so good yesterday) say our rights come from our humanity.

Because their goal, is, and always has been the destruction of the church. Socialism doesn’t work in a Christian community.

By the way, Prayers for speedy recovery (and hair growth :)) from one big c survivor to another!

Does anyone remember how many states voted against same-sex marriage?

The one silver lining, and many here will disagree, is that as we (conservatives) lose more of these social arguments, there are fewer such wedge issues for them to use... No more gay rights, no more healthcare as a right, no more flag, abortion has been settled law for a while.

The logic that the Republicans will somehow win more elections once they are defeated on the social issues is deeply flawed. The error in your thinking is that the Republican Party will also lose its electoral base of social conservatives when those issues are gone. Social conservatives won't have to vote for the lessor of two evils once those two evils become indistinguishable. Your "fiscal conservative" and libertarian candidates will never be able to hold a lasting majority as they are forced to continually move further left chasing a dominant Democrat Party.

The only "silver lining" in this is that social conservatives will no longer feel obligated to vote for RINOs and then feel like they have to take a shower after getting out of the voting booth.

IIFC, the Nazi's never won more than a third of the seats in the Reichstag.

Hitler was seen as the "voice of reason" by many Germans and the Kaiser as well.

He knew what he wanted and was willing to say so.

The German people were looking for leadership and he provided it.

I agree with nothing the man did but his rise to power is an example to be studied.

God bless you with no relapses.
Thank you for your prayers.
They are greatly and humbly appreciated.

Hah, They have to get over our mountain first, and I promise, We can see them coming a lot sooner than they’ll know we’re there. We could drop 2-300 before they could figure out where the shots were coming from (suppressors, and echos).
As for your next response, I have studied the 3rd Reich. We started that process the day Obozo was sworn in.
I will not cave, I will fight until they are sweeping my ashes.

And I salute you for doing so. But having studied the 3R, you know just how fast your ‘fellow man’ will sell you out to save his own ass.

I odn;t know the number, but all that had public votes on it, knocked it down. Kennedy cites all these discussions as evidence that homo marriage has been discussed, by the way, and uses these discussions (conveniently ignoring the outcome) to justify an attempt to impose his will on the public.

All the elected government employees will go along with it, none of them will disobey.
