What do you think?
Butt, of course.
California’s high court should not be weighing gay marriage. They should be weighing the legal precedent of a referendum and when it becomes Constitutional law and when and under what circumstances can the will of the people be put aside. Gay marriage is the ancillary issue.
Seven Rings for the Dwarf-kings on their thrones of stone...
WE THE PEOPLE have spoken. This in none of the court’s business. The voters of California need to remind them of that.
Isn’t the judiciary supposed to interpret the law? Sounds like they are trying to write it.
"We don't go vote on anyone else's rights," Frankeny said. "It's so demeaning."
Actually, Ms. Frankeny, every right that the government will enforce for you has been established as the result of a vote.
And that is what partially drives them nuts. They so want a debate on gay marriage ("we love each other" etc.) but they have been relegated to 2nd place in the greater struggle for freedom from judicial and PC tyranny.
Those of the leftist worldview believe it is within their ability, and therefor is their DUTY, to impose “cosmic justice” in the cases that come before them.
Yeah, how about my right to choose to donate or not donate to slackers?
Rights are not subject to vote.
I think they will. Yesterday’s posturing was just for show, so they would appear deliberative before emerging in 89 days with a ruling in favor of gay marriage.
A constitutional amendment by its very nature cannot be unconstitutional.
I do not think they will overturn Prop * from what I saw on the hearing yesterday...They seem to be implying that this was a Political Issue not a Legal one for there court..
I think the Voters right to ammend the Constitution will be upheld by the Supreme Court.
“What do you think?”
I think the citizens need to run these 7 asswipes out of the country on a rail...
Judges in court are very fond on saying “if you don’t like the law, write to your legislator.” and “if you don’t like the constitution then vote and change it.” It is a very snide and demeaning comment usually made at the trial court level to people who have very little chance of appealing thier cases.
We now we find out how serious these judges are about the process.
Remember there is NOTHING stopping the homosexual advocates from going to their legislator and having a new pro-homosexual based marriage put on the ballot. They have the equal opportunity to do so.
Correct, they will keep pushing it from one sect to the next until it eventually gets passed. Remember they have “unlimited” resources and no kids...they’ll eventually get what they want because they CHEAT!
Flames!! There I feel better....Oh wait, I can’t say that? How come your allowed to call me a Bible thumping bigot?
Hmmmm...Flames! Sorry, it slipped out...
No. But whether the government will recognize them and enforce your ability to enjoy them is.
