The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable. ~ H. L. Mencken
I'm about ready to agree with those who say that we should remove Under God from the pledge.
God will not be mocked.

Issue: 1) Does the Fourteenth Amendment require a state to license a marriage between two people of the same sex? 2) Does the Fourteenth Amendment require a state to recognize a marriage between two people of the same sex when their marriage was lawfully licensed and performed out-of-state?

We thought hard times had visiting this nation in the recent past.
No. Not yet.
We are about to see them in living color in 3D up close and personal.
Once this curse is loosed on a nation, historically that nation degrades at exponential speed into oblivion. And that was before nuclear missiles. It will be much faster this time.
Doom on steroids.

The American Civil Liberties Union, the ACLU of Ohio and Alphonse Gerhardstein of Gerhardstein & Branch have filed suit on behalf of Jim Obergefell and David Michener, two widowers, and Robert Grunn, a funeral director, in a challenge to the Ohio constitutional and statutory marriage recognition bans.
I believe that the political 'clusterf*uck' over this has just begun.
I don't even want to imagine what measures state legislatures will be called on to pass that may embody all manner of relationships and which will appeal for federal protection.
This can of worms has barely been cracked as far as what it portends for private employers and churches.
OK got it right by just doing away with marriage licenses; if a "couple" wishes to register their "union" with the several counties, they are free to do so.

Today is one of those days we'll tell our grandchildren about. Marriage equality is now the law in all 50 states.
From Stonewall to todays decision, the courage and determination of the LGBT community has changed hearts, minds, and laws. Generations of advocates and activists sacrificed so much for this victory.
This is our country at its best: inclusive, open, and striving towards true equality.
But the struggle for LGBT rights doesnt end with this triumph. Our work is not finished until every American can not only marry, but live, work, pray, learn, and raise a family free from discrimination and prejudice.
I will never stop fighting for every American who needs a champion. Jim, are you with me?

This will be all fine and dandy with the leftist political establishment until a father marries his son and avoids inheritance tax. If it comes down to a fundamental human right and loss of tax dollars, the human right thingy loses.
Given the nature of our adversary system, there's crap coming down the pike you ain't even dreamed of.

This is a ruling and it is not law. The court has told "WE the People" fuck you and your vote against same sex marriage. If congress or the state had any balls they can make a law the over rides the ruling.

D.C. Communists have seceded from the Constitution. They are destroying our nation and all normalcy. What they struck in Ohio was an Amendment to the State Constitution, not just a "Common Law". But the Supreme Court isn't a group of legislators, as some of them might opinionatedly think.
Communists have been stacking our courts and offices with their subversives, partly because of the citizenry who refuse to vote against them and talk others into surrendering their votes too -- who'd rather fight against Conservatives for Constitutionality, all who push for condonance of their police abuses even more than the "MSM" does, who shrug off our Founder's Constitutional Militia intent and why, rage against the Military and pillory "conspiracists" when Communism is a massive, monstrous conspiracy against America and humanity, overtly and covertly.
