i think the one slate article i posted gave the legal reasoning for them doing what they did....not sure it's an opinion piece. maybe it is.
i've disagreed with other rulings, unlike cruz, huck, jindal, etc. but unlike them, i don't see a reason to blow up the scotus.

here's this, regarding cruz


and something else he said:

"The court's views are radically out of step with public opinion," said Cruz. "The Supreme Court follows the opinions of Manhattan and Washington D.C., but it doesn't follow the opinions of America."

ted, same sex marriage was already legal in 37 states in this country. the majority of americans and the majority of states agree there should be same sex marriage. unlike you, ted, they understand what 'equal' means.

what these folks need to understand is their religious right isn't a greater right than another persons right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.


“Ours is a country that was built by men and women fleeing religious oppression,” Cruz told the newspaper, “and you look at the foundation of this country — it was to seek out a new land where anyone of us could worship the Lord God Almighty with all of our hearts, minds and souls, without government getting in the way.”

so, gay people wanting to be married are to be made to deal with religious oppression?! amazing thought process, ted.

The topic I referenced was when supposedly Republicans "tried to make this (the South Carolina shooting) about an attack on religion, instead of what it was, an attack based purely on the race of the victims."

well, they did.
pols, pundits, using that attack at the church as a symbol of some crusade against religion, instead of the race of the victims. one even said something about not rushing into judgement til we got all the facts, when they already knew what the shooter had said.

it's my opinion they said stupid things. that might not be your opinion. no big deal

Where?

You're entitled to your opinion, but not your facts. You referenced a link. Nowhere did they say that it had nothing due to race. Wishing it to be so, that you might make political hay of it, does not make it so.
