Bill D US Supreme Court sez Yes to Gay Marriage (199* d) RE: US Supreme Court sez Yes to Gay Marriage 26 Jun 15


In a blistering dissenting opinion, conservative Justice Antonin Scalia said the decision shows the court is a "threat to American democracy." The ruling "says that my ruler and the ruler of 320 million Americans coast-to-coast is a majority of the nine lawyers on the Supreme Court," Scalia added.

It didn't bother him at all to define corporations as people.

The conservatives don't want to see the basic premises they are using.... that somehow their belief in fundamentalist Bible interpretation should be imposed on everyone... and that somehow centuries of repression and practice count as binding 'definition'.
   For many years, certain groups of people were 'defined' as inferior and treated as slaves.

Now, we have some court decisions that implicitly correct those rationalized premises. I think the fact that 37 states already agree will prevent backsliding.

Congratulations to all in the LGBT community, and may happiness be yours as you exercise these new rights.
