Can SCOTUS overturn gay marriage next?
OP^
Marriage is not mentioned in the US Constitution.
Supreme Court Justices each take an Oath to uphold the US Constitution of the US ‘AND LAWS’ of the US.
There “in LIES”, the issue.
“How can a Court of Justices land on DIFFERING CONCLUSIONS ~ IF ~
They all take the Same Oath?”
There is where the conundrum arises... THE LAWS of the US.
The US Constitution; a single document that can be copied word for word on 9 sheets of notebook paper. A Very LIMITING Document to OVERSEE, a VERY FEW things FOR the benefit of avoiding Discourse between the Sovereign States and the citizens thereof such States.
And to “expressly” avoid such VERY Few identified ISSUES IN the US Constitution, The Federal Law Makers are charged with the DUTY to openly promulgate and discuss ideas each Representative wants for their State and Each Representative of the other States are supposed to protect their Own State and Citizens thereof, FROM negative effects an other State proposes. Remembering; They are only charged with Law Making Authority under the LIMITS of the US Constitutions ITEMS so Identified in the US Constitution.
So, Consider the US Constitution Express LIMITS, and WHAT expectation does the Public at Large Expect a Result NUMBER of LAWS to be Additionally Executed each year? 600? 1,000?
Remember; Congress meets in DC. They are paid handsomely by the Public at Large and have an ungodly number of Perks, not provided by the US Constitution.
Would you consider How much it would cost You to travel first class, accommodations for sleeping, eating, business dress attire, moving about DC...to attend lengthy meetings to discuss for example, the idea of having a “national tap dance day recognition”? (Which they have) Does that sound to you like Constitutional intent?
* Point being there are thousands upon thousands UnConstitutional and minuscule irrelevant Federal Laws. Already some 20,000 laws regarding gun ownership. Excessive? Conflicting? Constitutional?
* How MANY Federal Laws? Ha! Even the Government Reps DO NOT KNOW! 50 Volumes in the 1980’s. Best guess today is maybe 54 or more Volumes, and 600+ added yearly. ALL “supposedly UNDER the LIMITED FEW things the Federal Government was given Authority to enact Federal Legislation!
* Going back to the SCOTUS...discussion between the Justices ... (whom each have expressly revealed their ‘personal agenda’...AS IF!) according to WHAT LAWS? Unconstitutional Laws in the Laws Books?
* And not to ignore the Millions upon Millions of Federal Regulations, pursuant to the Federal Laws.
* It’s an out of control underhanded quagmire that leaves the American Public at Large hanging on “what will be the opinion of a handful of people sitting on as SCOTUS”? Laughable.
If abortions, queer behaviors of any kind, educational curriculums, gun ownership, etc. are not to your liking....don’t participate.
Don’t worry about what others do like.
MY bottom line personal beef, is ONE being Compelled by Unconstitutional Laws, to PAY for what an other “LIKES/WANTS”
Don’t care what another WANTS, they can pay for it. Period.
You want to hug your trees, don’t worry about my trees.
You want your children to be Marxist indoctrinated, you pay for it.
You want insurance to cover your health issues, you pay for it.
You want to be drug induced 24-7, you pay for it and its reflective consequences.
