I can never tell why people like Slade go to this much effort, tbh. I mean I'm a pretty miserable bloke but even I wouldn't look at a change that's had no negative impact and made millions of people happy and try to find a way to make it seem like a major defeat for the world. Is it just an extremely narrow and incorrect reading of a book written nearly 2000 years old that drives them, or is it simply a perverse wish to deny the most important person in another person's life hospital visitation rights? And the constitution? Really? You're still clinging to that as an excuse? A bill written more than 200 years ago by a bunch of slave-owning Englishmen whose wishes, as displayed in it, would be disrespected more by the fact that come next year, the head of state can have been 3 different members of the same wealthy, established family, the Bushes? So maybe instead of trying to win a bureacratic victory over loving couples, you should instead do something about the hereditary monarchy that your country has become? Or the massive racial issues? Or the fact that half of your people still think that the Confederate flag is a symbol of American pride and not willingness to tear a nation apart because you're too lazy to do any work yourself and you think skin colour is a valid excuse to treat people like property?

Holy shit, all of you calm the fuck down.

Getting angry at it, and consider as a maneuver, heheh quite convenient, people tend to forget how a country runs, it is not because you are not seeing that the discussions are not there.

It's probably hard to notice from outside the US, but from this SCOTUS ruling, to Charleston, to the confederate flag debacle, this whole week the media has been a non-stop barrage of the conservative-vs-liberal garbage that they plaster all over the place whenever they want to hide and downplay a controversial bill in congress (which is exactly what happened yesterday with the TPP, and surprise surprise, absolutely no one is talking about it in the news). Again, the marriage equality movement had enough momentum to reach the same conclusion by the end of the next year anyway, which is why this whole thing reeks of cover up.

He's a homosexual atheist. No one in this thread is arguing against gay marriage, but against the Supreme Court ruling on what is clearly a state's rights issue. The rule of law matters.

Well you'll forgive me for not noticing, usually when this sort of thing happens, the first people to go "democracy lost" are religious nutters or ridiculous dudebros. Also, all this massive defeat for democracy did was give room for people's partners to be given rights like heterosexual couples do, if you wanna talk about a defeat for democracy talk about how a small oligarchy decides which member of a basically aristocratic family you get to choose to drone strike Arabs in next year's election.

Do as you preach.


@Slade
You know what? Keep the way you think, it will do you only good to you, after all, your concept of democracy is so thin and literal, is not like hermeneutics exist or anything, right?
