...at a state level in the 1960's? Like a ballot stating "Should segregation be maintained the law of the land in [insert state]?" or "Should marriage between couples of a different race be illegal in [insert state]?"
lol, do people that make this argument seriously not understand this (the history behind this argument)? That the courts are there for a reason, that majority rule against minority rights is constitutionally unacceptable when said majority rule is depriving liberty and fundamental rights, and ultimately that it is a tired and terrible argument to defend the banning of same-sex marriage?
I'm sorry, but I'm hearing this argument come in, and I can't help but to make a thread about it, as it is unreasonable for anybody in 2015 to make that argument.
