In a land without eligibilty rules, anything is possible.

Because I said so.

Today, gender is not relevant to the state in determining spouses’ obligations to each other and to their dependents. Relative gender composition aside, same-sex couples are situated identically to opposite-sex couples in terms of their ability to perform the rights and obligations of marriage under California law. FF 48. Gender no longer forms an essential part of marriage; marriage under law is a union of equals.  Prop 8 ruled unconstitutional
Woof!

What's next? Legalizing child molestation, or licensing murder? Look how we arrived here: 30 years of brainwashing of the public by libtard teachers and professors, and Hollywood propaganda in movies and TV! Land of Sodom, complete with idiot judges corrupting society.

turing word: "iratie" you bet I am

I'm okay with civil unions, but for the state to co-opt MARRIAGE, which is a religious institution, is wrong. The state is imposing itself into matters in which it has no standing to rule. There will be consequences to this, which side of the grave they are on is yet to be determined. - Vice Sgt Boone

Just who made up this "Right" to marriage?

Where's my "Right" to not having my I.Q. insulted?

What the Big "O" doesn't hose us with, the courts will.

We're pretty much hosed completely when the SCOTUS goes 5-4 liberal.

I can't see the trip wire from here, but I know it's fewer than 50 yards away.

The judge does seem to substitute opinion for fact more than a little. Besides the quote above, there's this little tidbit on page 113:

"...the exclusion exists as an
artifact of a time when the genders were seen as having distinct roles in society and in marriage. That time has passed."

When gender no longer has a role in society, it no longer has a role in reality.

When reality no longer has any differentiators, it is no longer definable.

When reality becomes indefinable, it now longer exists, because existence requires the defined.

Welcome to “O World”, it’s beyond the Looking Glass.

Words words words. Words mean what I say they mean. One day they may mean something and the next, something totally different. I decide.
- paraphrased from Alice

Could do a 1984 cut, but why bother. When the meaning of words is decided by the courts of law, we have no courts of law, we have an oligarchy.
'Kelo' should be overturned. The SCOTUS deferred to their whim as to the meaning of words in their decision.
I propose that the members of the SCOTUS be stood to election every 6 years [or so??], and those that are so far out of touch with the common man will be de-robed[figuratively].
Read:
“You seem to consider the judges the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions; a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy. Our judges … and their power are the more dangerous as they are in office for life, and are not responsible, as the other functionaries are, to the elective control. The Constitution has erected no such single tribunal, knowing that to whatever hands confided, with the corruptions of time and party, its members would become despots… When the legislative or executive functionaries act unconstitutionally, they are
responsible to the people in their elective capacity. The exemption of the judges from that is quite dangerous enough. I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society, but the people themselves….” Thomas Jefferson

HE seems to be saying that the judiciary should be subject to the peoples' power.
