Trigger
Yesterday the infamous decision on Obamacare, today another infamous decision on gay marriage (Obergefell Et Al. V. Hodges, Director, Ohio Department Of Health, Et Al.).
The events are happening so fast that I did not have any time to read more about it.
I hope to amend this blog post as soon as I have read more about it.
Deeply Unconstitutional
The Supremes usurped again the power to define the law of the land for all Americans what should have left to each state to decide.
The U.S. Supreme Court today went roughshod over state referenda and state constitutional amendments like the one in South Dakota.
This ruling today has all the qualities to become as controversial as Roe v. Wade!
What is celebrated today by NPR and many homosexuals etc. could very well turn out to become a big bone of contention in the years ahead.
Confusing Marriage With Slavery?
The U.S. Supreme Court, to my mistaken knowledge, never outlawed slavery even though it should have done so. Thus, a complete failure of Scotus on this issue. Not only that the Scotus issued several horrible or infamous decisions regarding slaves or former slaves (e.g. Dred Scott v. Sanford (1857) or equal but separate in Plessy v. Ferguson (1896)).
Unlike slavery, marriage is a very personal decision!
One-Two-Punch Foul Compromise Among Supremes
Is this pure coincidence that these two decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court were released just one day apart? I sense here that the Supremes were having a struggle here and, unfortunately, something terribly awful came out of it!
This could be another hint that the Chief Justice John Roberts is totally unprincipled, incompetent and inept!
Privatize Marriage!
It is high time to privatize marriage! I intend to blog about this subject in more detail as soon as possible. Government or courts at all levels of government should only legitimately get involved in these personal decisions when there is a dispute of some sorts or when children are involved.
