Supreme Court rules in favor of gay marriage

None of which changes the fact that what we have is a SCOTUS with at least four people who rule in the following manner: When they like the state law, then state laws trump federal laws; when they like the federal law better than a state's law, then the federal law trumps state laws.

They can cloak their politics all they want with claims of following the Constitution, what they've done is make the supposed non-political arm of the three branches of government just as political as the other two. They rule based on their political wishes, not on what is or isn't Constitutional. It's how you "find" a "right to privacy" in Roe v. Wade but somehow can't find "the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed," despite it being expressly said.

 

I understand the two cases perfectly. When the politics of Bader Ginsburg, Sotomayor, Kagan and Breyer make them prefer an outcome, they'll twist themselves into pretzels and make statements that defy logic to reach that preferred outcome.

 

Your second statement completely contradicts your first statement in this post, Tony. Nobody defies logic and twists themselves into pretzels for political reasons like you do.

You accused Supreme Court Justices of being illiterate. 'Nuff said.

 

That the Supreme Court is acting like a political body is hardly news.

Doesn't it also expressly say that said arms are to be kept in the interest of maintaining a well-regulated militia?

 

Yep. But what it doesn't say is that so long as a well-regulated militia is necessary, the right to keep/bear arms is not to be infringed.

 

Getting this back to something fun ...

Bad news for schieza. Swinging ain't everything it's cracked up to be.

Senator Freaks Out About Gay Marriage During Confederate Flag Debate

 

Dating an asshole is dating an asshole, no matter what terms you set for the relationship.

 

That's what your wife said.

 

Well, some of her friends have made some bad dating choices. Lucky for her, she has me, so that isn't an issue.

 

No more legs to stand on here
