The American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property (TFP) has issued the following statement about the August 4, 2010 decision to strike down California’s constitutional amendment banning same-sex “marriage” by the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California:
In the name of equality, Chief Justice Vaughn Walker has ruled that California's constitutional amendment defining marriage as the union of a man and a woman is unconstitutional and has “no rational basis” because it excludes same-sex unions.
In making the decision, Justice Walker has taken upon himself the task of defining marriage based on the faulty logic that marriage is defined by any committed relationship.
Marriage is not a mere form of relationship such as a friendship or a business partnership. Nor is it the legalization of a passion. It is a mutual self-giving between a man and a woman for the purpose of raising a family. Even if, for a number of reasons, this union may not result in children, it still is the only institution that allows children to grow naturally and be raised in normal conditions for their psychological and moral development.
According to Judge Walker, traditional marriage is "nothing more than an artifact of a foregone notion that men and women fulfill different roles in civic life." In dismissing any other criteria than equality, the judge denies the notion of this august union instituted by the Creator himself in its present form through natural law, and confirmed by Revelation, for the perpetuation of the species.
The ruling unmasks how the homosexual movement’s promotion of same-sex “marriage.” deprives marriage of its rational end, belittles a higher moral law and disregards the majority of California who hold marriage to be sacred. Americans must reject this decision which will now be appealed to the U. S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
Chief Justice Walker is another of the myriad of reasons that our courts system is a labyrinth of asininity that holds Americans in utter disregard and disrespect.
The fact that these tangled courts care nothing about the Constitution and the law becomes more apparent with each passing week.
Walker is a fool and a jackal who feels that a perverted man sticking his penis in another pervert's anus constitutes a family.
All those who feel this sinful and unsanitary behavior is okay are hell-bound for certain.
Remember Vaughn Walker as he is an enemy of a decent and organized society!
Does this ruling invalidate all legal marriages that have been performed between a man and a woman?
Just asking.
Idiots.
Marriage has been defined, and accepted over many years by a many a man. These fools are smarter?
Its a union. A legal union and not marriage.
What the dishonorable vaughn walker fails to realize is that marriage is a covenant with G-d...walker will be dealt with by G-d, hopefully sooner rather than later.
He would feel that way being he is a homosexual himself.
Heaven help us.
Well, we’ve got two lesbians on the soopreme kort, why not a few queers on the federal kort system?

Walker is a perfect example of Judicial Tyranny. This machine has ruled against everything from immigration laws (SB 1070 and Proposition 187) to the recent overturning of Proposition 8. These people aren’t just defining morality, there “I know better than the voice of the people” attitude threatens to bankrupt our nation.
As far as gay rights goes, they’ve pretty much released something bigger than themselves on this nation. Polygamists have also been banging on the doors for recognition of their relationships in both Canada and the U.S., but hopefully they’re the only others we should be dealing with now. Sadly though, I am beginning to doubt that. I hope they don’t win also, but the question is about how long.
Law has allowed homosexuals to live together without the same recognition that marriage has. Ask me if you don’t feel sure, and I could point out how.
But when marriage gets redefined, a whole new can of worms gets opened. There’s a growing number of academics that have favored the decriminalization or recognition of polygamy, especially in the past few years.
Walker has started a snowball rolling, which will grow to gigantic proportions eventually.
