Race is protected under the Constitution. The Federal Constitution is the highest dictator of rights. As is it today the Constitution doesn't demand that it's a violation of rights and liberties for a state to uphold the traditional definition of marriage. The ban on my state on SSM is still as legal and valid as it was before the ruling. It's also not a logical comparison to compare race issues in the South to SSM.
We can declare anything a liberty. I could say that my liberties are infringed upon in states that won't let me get marriage in an incest relationship. But unless the Constitution says so then legally that liberty is subject to the legal bodies deciding that and isn't something I'm entitled to.
Care to cite just where that "race protection" is in our constitution?
