Court Gives Stupid Opinion – Supports Constitutionality of Gay Marriage Ban
This is perhaps one of the strangest interpretations of the Constitution I have ever read:
From the Washington Blade:
I must have skipped the part of the Constitution that gives breeders, meaning those who procreate, the exclusive right to form a lawful couple. It appears these judges performed a very selective and self-serving reading of the Constitution. The news flash for all of us is that the Constitution is no longer merely a framework for our government, but now a document that guides our evolutionary survival.
Perhaps we could engage these profoundly stupid judges in a debate and say something like this: The legislature was misguided in promoting sexual intercourse between opposite-sex couples because our social system is under too heavy of a strain to support a continually growing population. Therefore, opposite-sex marriage is unconstitutional.
Yes, both arguments are ridiculous – Neither is rooted in Constitutional principles. It's just sad to continually see backwards rationalizations intended to keep a group of people stuck in the role of second class citizen.
However, today also marked the day that Lance Bass, founding member of the teenage obsession 'N Sync, finally came out of the closet. It's always good news when someone decides to share themself with the world in a real way.
From the Washington Blade:
The same-sex marriage ban "is constitutional because the Legislature was entitled to believe that limiting marriage to opposite-sex couples furthers procreation, essential to survival," Justice Barbara Madsen wrote in the controlling opinion.
