"Supreme Court seems wary of broad gay marriage ruling."

Comments:



I was hoping for more encouraging news than this. Keep prop 8.

Update:

Surely, the Supreme Court can find a justification for hearing this case.

Based upon admittedly very sketchy knowledge of the California situation, it looks like the state won't enforce its own laws even though they have sworn to do so.  Every state is guaranteed a republican form of government, which should mean that the laws will be enforced.  The Supreme Court may be their only redress for grievances against a state that is running rampantly over the law.

Update:

Same-sex marriage is based upon a flawed 2003 Supreme Court decision which overturned the anti-sodomy laws, according to the linked article.  Justice Antonin Scalia predicted this outcome, and he was right.  That case, which was decided 6-3,  was based upon a lie, according to the author of the piece.

Update:

There's no point in making a new post on this subject, so I'll update it instead.  Based upon my reading, I expect that thre will be two possible outcomes, neither of which are good.  It is just a matter of how bad it will get.

Number 1 is that they will let the lower court decision remain in place somehow.   Or,
Number 2: they will nationalize the issue and make same-sex marriage the law of the land.

There's no way they are going to do the right thing.  We are far past that.
