OK Doomer.

Watch birthright citizenship; If its repealed, then sure, gay marriage is on the table; but I’m willing to put money on neither of these two things changing, because they can’t do that, it’s unconstitutional.

Positively crazy how this thread went from “gay marriage is not protected by the constitution” to “the constitution doesn’t matter anyways”. To my knowledge, the Trump administration has yet to do anything anywhere near this blatantly unconstitutional.

There are genuine things to worry about. Trans folk are being told they don’t exist; women are dying in labor because they cant get an abortion; people who even LOOK Palestinian are being mercilessly assaulted, and your choosing to spend your time worrying about something that is INCREDIBLY unlikely to be overturned.

I don’t have time for this thread anymore, and nor should anyone else. This is not the thing anyone should be worrying about right now; there will be signs and ample time to flee before something like this happens.

I just don’t see it; the only thing these fucks care about is money. They have the working class where they where they want them, and randomly assassinating its members is the easiest way to get people rioting.

I know I would be.

What’s wrong? Didn’t want to respond to the other 116 words?

Go fuck yourself. I provided a paragraph of explanation for my viewpoint, and the best you could muster was a strawman of the first 4 and a personal insult.

Even the most devout cultists understand that culling 7% (and rising) of the population in a country with a negative birth rate is a bad move.

EDIT: I must admit, this reply has been living in my head rent free, and I have a lot more to say about it:

Are you aware of how much the death penalty costs? It is on average $3,000,000 for the state to execute someone (legally). Assume for a second you are a billionaire oligarch. You’ve cut taxes for you and your billionaire friends and raised them for the working class. Now assume you have 7.1% of the population that earns a roughly 10% higher wage on average (please note that although the median household income is lower than average for lesbian couples, both women do still make roughly 7% more than heterosexual women, as the gay wage gap exceeds the gender wage gap)

Now, although this percentage of he population produce more income, they are still firmly generally working class. So what do you do? Obviously you’d try to make it so they can’t marry so you can collect more from them in taxes; you wouldn’t fucking spend your tax dollars to murder them, that makes no sense.

They’re evil, they aren’t stupid.

Relevant excerpt: “…No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States;… nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

The amendment was not properly interpreted prior to 2015. It would be nearly impossible to change the interpretation at this point because it would need to be changes from “…nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of laws” to “…nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of laws; except for gay people”

There is nothing to overturn. This is not the same thing as Roe V Wade; which arguably did not have constitutional precident. Its clearly written in the 14th that all within the juridstiction of america are to have equal rights. 'Less there’s a fucking coup, that’s not changing.

In short; marriage is constitutionally protected as a fundamental right, and the 14th amendment establishes that all laws apply to everyone within the jurisdiction of the united states equally, regardless of background.

Marriage is also not constitutionally defined by gender, so there is no precedent to say “marriage is defined by the joining of a man and a woman” or anything along those lines, because marriage is not constitutionally defined anywhere. DOMA was thrown out because its unconstitutional; not because it was the right thing to do, just as Roe v. Wade was thrown out because it was unconstitutional; not because it was the right thing to do.

Abortion is unfortunately political, and therefore goes beyond healthcare. To be frank; Roe V Wade was unconstitutional. I’m not arguing that it should be, I’m simply pointing out that it is. In all honesty, there is likely more ground to completely federally outlaw abortion than there is to protect it. The same is not true of marriage, which is constitutionally protected as a fundamental right, and the 14th amendment states that no one in the jurisdiction of the united states is to be subject to laws differently based on background. Its open and shut; gay marriage being outlawed is just as likely as a 3rd Trump term. It is possible, but not under the federal government as it exists now.

Roe V Wade does not have constitutional precident. Oberfell v Hodges does.

Have you?

The 14th amendment should have covered gay marriage from the get-go; and I seriously don’t see how you could argue that it can be restored to its prior; clearly wrong, interperitation.

There is nothing to overturn. This is not the same thing as Roe V Wade; which arguably did not have constitutional precident. Its clearly written in the 14th that Americans are to have equal rights legally. 'Less there’s a fucking coup, that’s not changing.

…yeah this isn’t happening. Cry all you want, that shits in the constitution.
