Supreme Court rules in favor of gay marriage

I'm not. The point is, we all would agree that there is some point at which "religious liberty" yields.

 

No one says it's infallible. They make mistakes. But those mistakes are nonetheless the law.

 

The difference, of course, is that Obergefell gives more rights and freedom, while the other cases you listed restricted rights and freedom.

 

Kelo and Roe are still "good law." Tony just disagrees with them.

 

Yeah, I missed his listing of Roe among the others. Kelo's merits are questionable.

 

So are Roe's. But they stand nonetheless.

 

So does Citizens United. And Hobby Lobby.

 

But those cases also allow a restricting of rights and a decrease of access. Citizens United restricts those who don't have money from having the same influence on politics. Hobby Lobby allows employers to restrict the compensation of their employees if they have a religious objection to that compensation. Obergefell doesn't restrict anyone. It increased access to the right of marriage.

 

It restricts Kim Davis.

 

Nope. She's still free to get married to whomever she wants. Multiple times, if she wishes.

 

And make sweet love in prison.

Win-win-win.

 

When the Supremes decide in a manner of which I approve, I think that's a good thing.
