California gets gay marriage and very hot weather

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

The California Supreme Court is 6-1 Republican.

[Alcon]

Well, not about the weather.  It's going to be 90 tomorrow.  Screw that.

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

It's already 90 in the bay area.

[Joe Biden 2020]

That heat is coming to Oklahoma and the central and southern plains.  We're supposed to get into the lower to mid 90s early next week.  Its going to feel like a lot like mid-June.  Hot and Humid.  Thankfully, no severe weather until late next week.

[John Dibble]

Well, good for the gay people living in California. I just hope we don't get another wave of state constitutional amendments banning gay marriage because of this.

Personally, I'm far more worried about people marrying their poodles.

Aizen -- you sound like Rick Santorum (gasp!).  Next thing, you'll be against people wanting to marry their motorcycle or having multiple marriage partners!

[Friz]

Good for them.

I can almost feel the bonds of my marriage weakening as we speak!

Poodles are strangely reminiscent of sexual organs... I mean, just look at all that curly hair.

Well, Arnold got his wish that a court got to legalize it instead of the legislature. 3 of the 4 justices who supported this were appointed by Republicans (not Arnold). However, a ban on gay marriage will most likely be on the November ballot.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

I love activist judges!

[Keystone Phil]

Terribly disappointing but not so surprising.

[Everett]

Terribly disappointing but not so surprising.

Yeah, I was really disappointed that the weather suddenly became so intolerable. Right during final exams, too.

Heat wave: God's way of expressing disapproval?

I love activist judges!

Yeah, court decisions that are backed by the legislature and have no opposition from the Governor are awful, aren't they?

[Verily]

I love activist judges!

You know, California's state legislature passed a law legalizing gay marriage a couple of years ago. Schwarzenegger vetoed it--not because he opposed it, but because he said, "Let the courts decide." (Imagine him in his ridiculous accent saying it. It sounds much more convincing that way.) So they did.

[Reluctant Republican]

Hmm, I’m sort of mixed on this decision. As a gay male, I of course believe this is a great step forward. On the other hand, if the voters did approve a ban on it, I really don’t know if judges should be making the decision to overturn what the voters want. This just gives ample ammo to the conservative Christians who argue about the “activist courts”, and the ruling will likely be defeated in a landslide sadly if it makes it on the ballot.  But again, we do have courts for a reason, and we might have still had segregated schools if we left it up to the folks, so, who knows.

Still though, as mixed as I feel about the way the court went about it, I’m heartened that its another battle that has been won, so to speak. Once again California lives up to its reputation as being a freethinking state.

I read the decision. It was another Robe activist thing about fundamental liberties, bootstrapping  off a decision about miscegenation. I favor gay marriage, but not this way. By the way, the entire issue was about the label. Domestic partners in California have all of the rights and duties that married couples do, both as to the rights and duties. It that sense, it was quite odd. It was all about the deprivation of a word.

[Sbane]

Jeez I really do not understand why this is a big deal. Can any republicans please explain to me how this harms their marriage? Or are they already half out the closet??? LOL

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

I favor gay marriage, but not this way.

Well, Arnold already blocked the activist legislators from legislating from the legislature.

"Christian" opposition to gay marriage is on the same level of dumbness as the Xenu story of Scientology.
