Again, we are not a pure democracy, we are a Republic. And built upon the adherence to the rights and liberties of the individual. The ban on gay marriage infringes upon right to contract of the individual. It doesn't matter if elected officials, or the majority of Americans do not like it. They have no just position to argue against it from. Not so long as marriage remains a government issued and recognized contract.
and the supreme court is likely to find otherwise
so there ya go
meanwhile, all the americans who don't share your particular idealism are gonna have their say, too
via ballot box
congrats, once again!
it's a happy moment, no?
