Michigan gay marriage ban struck down

[IceSpear]

The will of the people activists in black robes prevails again. The people via their reps banned it.

The entire point of our government is to protect against the tyranny of the majority. Why do you hate our Founding Fathers?

the end result of this is that gays are joining the post-WW2 Jews as the most privileged group in world history: not disadvantaged at all by any demonstrable economic statistic, yet enjoying multiple "extra" protections under the law.

Congrats on vomiting out one of the dumbest sentences I've ever seen on the Forum. I give you my accolades.

Do we really have to get into a contest about which group was discriminated against more? Because the treatment of blacks in America looks like paradise compared to some of the other widely discriminated against groups throughout world history.

Wouldn't have gone there, bro...

Just making a point. Trying to minimize the suffering and institutionalized discrimination of one minority group just because another had it worse is one of the dumbest things you can possibly do. Hell, you don't even need to look beyond our borders for a group that had it much worse. The Native Americans were essentially victims of a mass genocide.
