Ala Chief Justice Tells Judges: Refuse Gay Marriage Licenses[W:344,535,718]

Re: Ala Chief Justice Tells Judges: Refuse Gay Marriage Licenses

Can't on the 14th, "interracial" was what it was about. It wasn't however about homosexuality.

really? can you show us interracial in the 14th? or race? you wont its about equal protection of laws
sorry ill stick with the 45+ judges that say otherwises
 
Re: Ala Chief Justice Tells Judges: Refuse Gay Marriage Licenses

Wouldn't it?

If the federal government hadn't stepped in, would Alabama still be segregated today? I seriously doubt it. Just because progress sometimes occurs more slowly in some places compared to others, doesn't give Uncle Sam the right to force-feed that progress upon an unwilling public.

You have to let things run their course, let people determine their own destiny.

didnt alabama just try to make a bill within the last 4 years to roll back on interracial marriage? lol

no thanks i dont care about peoples feelings and destiny i care about rights, if you or others dont like equal rights or the constitution there's other places you could live like Russia or somethign like that.
 
Re: Ala Chief Justice Tells Judges: Refuse Gay Marriage Licenses

I think that gay people would agree with the "mind your own business" sentiment, thus the current situation.

exactly its people in thier business that is the problem
 
Re: Ala Chief Justice Tells Judges: Refuse Gay Marriage Licenses

1.) states rights are fully intact and not infringed on as many court cases have pointed out
2.) who said it was? equal rights is an issue right now because states are violating it and COURT CASES make it an issue. Take away the violations and the feds dont have to get involved . . .its how government works

Oh Jesus, numbered bullet points. My goose is cooked.
 
Re: Ala Chief Justice Tells Judges: Refuse Gay Marriage Licenses

Do you live in Alabama? No? Then it's none of your damn business how they go about their lives. Should we conquer Cuba in order to install a democracy? I mean after all, I feel no particular compulsion to wait for the Cubans to be ready for individual liberty.

did you just compare another country to a state? lol sorry thats not analogous
 
Re: Ala Chief Justice Tells Judges: Refuse Gay Marriage Licenses

Well gender and race you can't control. Religion you can. And you don't need to answer, I already know religious freedom is protected. So what if my religion tells me I must bear my dong when the clock strikes noon tomorrow at times square? Will Jesse Jackson and the civil rights brigade be there to dry my tears in jail?

That you understand that gay marriage bans are gender discrimination is sufficient for this discussion.
 
Re: Ala Chief Justice Tells Judges: Refuse Gay Marriage Licenses

Then let the people of Alabama vote on gay marriage in their state

people of a state cant vote on individual rights again it doesnt work that way, thats what some states did and thats overreaching of thier power, Now the fed is fixing thier mistake and violation of rights.
 
Re: Ala Chief Justice Tells Judges: Refuse Gay Marriage Licenses

No....that isn't exactly what the Supremacy Clause says at all....only in certain contexts. As for the 14th Amendment...you just displayed that you really have no idea what it is about. You really should pick up a book and do a little research. You might learn something.

Speaking of rules and such, there is a forum rule against personal attacks. Your whole "pick up a book and learn something," this being the second time you've done this, is tiresome and our debate is finished.

Interesting. Is that what you think? While you were going off about nudism and religion and god knows what else, you accepted that gender discrimination was the entire point behind the gay marriage issue. Nothing else mattered. Do you really not see that?

Alabama's Top Judge: Same-Sex Marriage Is Illegal in State - NBC News

awwwwwww poor judge has his fweelings hwurt and thinks he has the power to disregard the fed and constitution . . .

Way to keep it classy Roy! lol

I hope he is removed from office and he is banned from every participating in government law again. :D



Is anyone surprised that a judge in Alabama did this? :roll:

I could have predicted this, but I didn't. Some people will always resist change.

I will never understand why a man sitting in Europe, as you are, thinks he can lord over and dictate to the people of Alabama how they are supposed to live in their own state. The ego some of you guys have astounds me.

It's not gender discriminaton. Which gender is being discriminated against?
 
Re: Ala Chief Justice Tells Judges: Refuse Gay Marriage Licenses

You are suggesting that not having gay marriage is a human rights violation?

I would be curious to know how such equal right would harm you??

nope not really like i I said it was Alabama or Mississippi that just recently tried to roll back interracial marriage .. . of course they failed

Enough, peter, you admitted as much in post 118. It's over. You put up a fight, but it's done now.
 
Re: Ala Chief Justice Tells Judges: Refuse Gay Marriage Licenses

Whatever happened to equal human rights? :roll:

some people simply dont care about legal or human rights
 
Re: Ala Chief Justice Tells Judges: Refuse Gay Marriage Licenses

I would be curious to know how such equal right would harm you??

It harms me any time the federal government comes in and forces a state in to an unwanted action. It harms me when unelected, unaccountable activist judges legislate from the bench instead of letting the people's voice be heard.

It's tyrrany. And tyrrany harms us all.
 
Re: Ala Chief Justice Tells Judges: Refuse Gay Marriage Licenses

There is no gender discrimination in gay marriage bans. Hopefully that clears up any misunderstanding.
