While straight people are just bent out of shape like usual. Pow... right in the kisser.News report: Year 2025. In the 10 years since marriage equality in all 50 states, gay people have become less gay.

We'll probably have to agree to disagree here, but lets look at the first clause "The enumeration in the Constitution". Here we see they are addressing the listing of rights in the Constitution for thats what an enumeration is: a listing. Next clause, "of certain rights". Nowhere in the Constitution is marriage addressed. In other words there is no enumeration in the Constitution that contains anything about marriage. Last clause "shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people". Since there is nothing in the constitution about the right to be married, then nothing in the Constitution could be construed to deny or disparage it since marriage isn't enumerated. What is enumerated is the power to the states and to the people, and that power got disparaged and denied by this ruling. In other words, the 10th amendment was enumerated, and it just got denied. You could argue what the court did was break the 9th amendment by ignoring the 10th amendment.Sorry but I must disagree. Check out the 9th Amendment:
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.The Court just did what it does best (sometimes): protected the rights of minorities, which should not be up for vote.
Right. States hold a great amount of independence but it doesn't mean that they shouldn't be governed under any circumstance. If they weren't, they might as well be completely sovereign countries. (I dare them!) California has about 40 million people, which is more people than a lot of countries on the planet. It would be scary if the government couldn't step in and ultimately prevent discrimination in a state that has more people than all of Canada. Roe v. Wade was 1973. We haven't seen much tyranny since then. The only people that are concerned about this believe in talking snakes like Rick Perry, the same guy who prayed for rain and saw Texas engulfed in wildfires.Sorry but I must disagree.

If that's what you do with it, your using it wrong...just got my GHK!!!
time for some mo'i and some house cleaning!
@Blippy5 - I am honestly confused about kava moods sometimes. At the kava bar I go to sometimes, a patron sat down next to me and ordered a certain strain because "he still had a lot of studying to do." I later asked the kavista about it and he said that a lot of people from campus come and get a bit kavalated before going back to study. I really want to start a breakdancing team called the Kava Krew. You will see the slowest slow-motion pop n' lock robotting ever.If that's what you do with it, your using it wrong...
I think you may be mistaken. Practice makes perfectNews report: Year 2025. In the 10 years since marriage equality in all 50 states, gay people have become less gay.
I gayly agree with Verticity. My parents practiced for 25 years. In France, the Land of Romance, they are largely ditching marriage altogether and making way for PACS which is basically civil union. Nobody cares though. I am straight but I like that fact that I can have a gay marriage if I want to. I have a couple of lesbian friends that I could fall for.I think you may be mistaken. Practice makes perfect
Weed is a good issue too. I don't use it but it's a hot topic... and a very very expensive one at a federal level. Apart from a lot of our "defense" spending, the war on drugs is a very expensive war with little to no results. At the federal level, the criminalization of marijuana has costed the federal government (you and I) billions of dollars. Two cities similar sized cities, San Fran and Amsterdam have been compared in some detailed studies. In San Fran, three times as many teenagers have tried MJ than those in Amsterdam where it is legal to possess and consume. It is a good topic for the government to look at, considering that something like booze that is terribly more dangeous is legal and taxed. It would be great for us if the goverment would step in and legalize it and tax it. They have been trying to beat it unsuccessfully for nearly a century so they might as well own it. When they do, cartels collapse, drug dealers have to find something else to do, THC levels are controlled, etc. There will be less prisoners for you and I to pay for too. This is a great place for the Supreme Court to step in, unless of course you/one believe/s that we could use the entire one hundred years of prohibition to make it work.Yeah Rick Perry. Lets pick another issue. Weed. Nowhere in the constitution does it say anything that gives the federal government power over weed (or any other substances for that matter). If someone were to propose that the federal drug laws were unconstitutional based on the 10th amendment, I'm guessing Rick Perry would go absolutely bonkers over it. See, both the left and right have their little issues. They'll ignore the unconstitutionality of their positions if their issues jive with their political ambitions.
I'm pretty sure that's not in the Constitution.What the Constitution does acknowledge is the power of individual states to approve of gay marriage, ....
That's not true. They know that they can save it instead of owe it.Crime in colorado, and veteran suicides have decreased since legalization. The state has made more money than it know what to do with.
