Supreme Court Justices Call to Overturn Marriage Equality
#1
I thought the republicans were on our side? Who would have thought that a conservative court (which should be impartial, but you know damn well that's never the case). So this right here is what we have to look forward to with 4 more years of Trump or rather that is what we may get with only 4 years of Trump. Some people think their religious values should apply to everyone...selectively.

Quote:Justice Clarence Thomas issued an opinion today that repeatedly attacked the 2015 Supreme Court decision in Obergefell v. Hodges – which legalized marriage equality in all 50 states – as unconstitutional because it “bypassed” the “democratic process” and cause people “with sincerely held religious beliefs concerning marriage” to “find it increasingly difficult to participate in society.”

Personally I find people's sincerely held religious beliefs to be absolute bullshit, in other words I'm calling them hypocrites.

Quote:“Until then, Obergefell will continue to have ‘ruinous consequences for religious liberty.’”

I'd like to know how a gay couple getting married effects someone's religious liberty...

Anyway, read the article and given that there are two calling to overturn marriage equality right now tell me what will come up when this new justice is confirmed by the senate. If it is not clear what side republicans are on and who's rights they care about by now then we simply lose.
