Gay marriage win streak broken…

leave a comment »

Finally,  after a long losing streak since the Supreme Court tortured itself last year  into a ruling that rejected the Defense of Marriage Act as unconstitutional,  a state judge in Tennessee  ruled last  week that  “neither the Federal Government nor another state should be allowed to dictate to Tennessee what has traditionally been a state’s responsibility.”

As in so many other cases,  gay activists used the pretext of obtaining a divorce in a state which does not recognize gay marriage to dissolve a marriage obtained in a state which does.   The federal courts continue to cave on so-called marriage equality,  though there is one before the Sixth Circuit which may end differently.

By the way,  when someone starts spouting  “marriage equality”  to me,  what I hear is that LGBT rights and the lifestyles those communities choose,  demand precedence over all else because they matter more.   What it means is tyranny by the minority.   If you want to set the cat amongst the pigeons,  ask an activist their view on marriage between more than two parties,  between relatives,  and between humans and animals.   You will find their attempts to answer interesting,  followed by even more interesting efforts to differentiate amongst them all.
