[Secret Agent Man]

This is why conservatives must never, ever give up fighting and pushing things TO THE RIGHT more and more.

The left doesn’t stop and they keep pushing to the left, more and more.

You have to push back harder to get things back to being closer to what YOU believe.

They do that in order to sue. They know what they are doing.

BTW, now that there are 50 “genders” how do you define “same sex” marriage? There are more combinations possible now. I’m not sure of the math, but it looks like 2500 combinations.

If TransWoman wants to marry androgynous, is that same-sex or what?

They will not quit until they are tarred, feathered, and run out of town on a rail.

“The Campaign for Southern Equality” cannot ever achieve equality. Lincoln wisely said that you stand a black man next to a white man and you can see they are distinctly different. But put a dog up there and you can see the black man and white man are the same.

Put a married man and a woman next to two homosexuals and you can never make them equal.

[Amendment10]

The states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect so-called gay rights, such “rights” now wrongly being legislated from the bench by pro-gay activist judges using PC interpretations of the 14th Amendment's Equal Protections Clause. So Jasmine Beach-Ferrara needs to do the following if she is really sincere about protecting gay rights within the framework of the Constitution.

Ms Beach-Ferrara needs to work with state and federal lawmakers to propose a gay rights amendment to the Constitution to the states for ratification. And if the states choose to ratify Ms Beach-Ferrara's amendment, then gay rights will be constitutionally enumerated and Ms Beach-Ferrara will be a hero.

Regarding PC interpretations of the Equal Protections Clause, please consider the following. Virginia Minor had argued that her citizenship gave her the right to vote despite being a woman because of the Equal Protections Clause.

However ...

The Supreme Court decided against her claim in Minor v. Happersett, officially clarifying that 14th Amendment did not add any new rights to the Constitution regardless of the Equal Protections Clause.

3. The right of suffrage was not necessarily one of the privileges or immunities of citizenship before the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment, and that amendment does not add to these privileges and immunities. It simply furnishes additional guaranty for the protection of such as the citizen already had (emphasis added)." --Minor v. Happersett, 1874.

(The 19th Amendment was later ratified to the Constitution, prohibiting voting discrimination based on sex.)

As a hypothetical example of the bona-fide application of the Equal Protections Clause imo, states which allowed only men to vote couldn't prevent Irish Catholic men from voting.
