how is marriage a privilege? when my wife and i went in, we viewed it as our right.

and again, since the constitution guarantees equal protection of the law, hopefully you can figure the rest out from there.



if you tried to say gays weren't allowed to drive or fly planes, i'm sure they would.

No buck the SCOTUS can`t, it`s not theirs to do. You have the right to chose that path, but needed the license like me too. That would qualify you for Gov. perks.....Mr. Gay can`t just step in and say, I want some too cuz I am.

Aint nothing Constitutional about a marriage debate. You can lose your license to drive and be married. You can`t lose your Rights in America.

Their is no Constitutional law in marriage, it`s a State`s issue because it varies from State to State. You just siding.

I`m discussing licensed privilege and your try to throw law into it. If marriage were a law, you would have a key point.

It's not about marriage, it's about equal rights under the law. It's the gov. job to ensure equal protection to all citizens, equally

They probably would if state trade licenses were only given to straight people, dipshit.

They can`t, it`s not their job. Why can`t you understand that. Going above State and federal courts to the SCOTUS with non law matters is breaking the Constitution. Gays want equal privileges they claim are law. Being out of the privileges is not unequal; treatment.

Under what law ? Yes we know the 14th, but not the law you are referencing,...so, What law ? It matters and is specific....the 14th says equal rights under the law but you don`t say the law.

it's almost as if you know what the words mean, but you clearly don't.

it's kind of like watching a dog bark at itself in front of a mirror.

14th amendment;

"Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
Gay people are citizens, yes? Citizens are guaranteed "equal protection of the laws". Marriage is federally recognized by law.

There it is, right there in black and white. Your argument is baseless, it seems to be "the Supreme Court deciding on gay marriage is unconstitutional because the powers not specifically outlined in the Constitution are relegated to the states", well, I just showed you the 14th amendment states it loud and clear

So is driving, and my infractions shouldn`t affect other drivers. What you show is all the 14th alright but pertaining to after the fact. Qualifications are clearly spelled out to get it. The 14th gives you protection after that fact.

Which State has a law that says you must marry. That`s the one the SCOTUS has jurisdiction over, not the regulating of the marriage. Gays feel that they qualify to marry, which isn`t a big deal but the man and a woman part of it is where the States regulate, not the SCOUTUS. The States and Federal courts both ruled in favor of the people and by breaking the law, the SCOTUS ruled on it.

Peoples biggest misconception about the SCOTUS is that it is the appeal court of the Federal court or it`s "higher up",.....it is not. But when it came to regulating marriage privileges the SCOTUS ruled.....

Getting married and receiving privileges is just like any other licensed privilege, State to State and stipulations can apply.

You can`t do that to a Right or Constitutional law.

Gays didn`t like that, claimed discrimination and a court that shouldn`t rule on it did......They lost to the people,....twice.
