On gay marriage, America's house may not stay divided for long [W:29, 210]

Re: On gay marriage, America's house may not stay divided for long

This is a Tenth Amendment issue....

Marriage isn't a "right" nor a civil liberty - nor is marriage even covered under our Constitution....

Gay marriage is a non-issue.
 
Re: On gay marriage, America's house may not stay divided for long

Gay marriage is a non-issue.

9th amendment The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.[1]

And SCOTUS has ruled marriage is a right

what law are you talking about?
 
Oh yeah did I say for right now before the Constitution has been amended that this is a state issue?
 
Re: On gay marriage, America's house may not stay divided for long

Ask your buddy - he/she seems to believe that the SCOTUS legislates per his/her post.

im asking you, you said they cant write that law, what law are you talking about.

Congress shouldn't pass unConstitutional laws:shrug:

It's common knowledge that our congress writes laws hence the name "legislative branch."

The Judicial branch does NOT write law - they interpret law...... Only the 9 of them....

So 9 Justices judge 535 representatives?

Don't let your opinion get in the way of law or civil liberties because it's quite clear you're not too keen on your civics.

Also "Unconstitutional" is one word but rarely needs to be capitaliZed.

You're not interested in an answer because you can't acknowledge what I'm telling you.... You're looking for an answer to your myth...

You don't realize that your basic understanding of civil rights and civil liberties is blatantly wrong..... That clearly shows when you believe that the SCOTUS has the ability to legislate.
 
Re: On gay marriage, America's house may not stay divided for long

Are you stomping your feet too?

No I'm absolutely baffled by you folk who believe that the Judicial branch falls under the legislative branch of government....

Baffled, frustrated and disappointed would be correct...
