Once again the will of the people is taken away from judges.

 

Although, as a Californian, I can not say I'm shocked.

 

i know far many more people that are against it than for it. both straight and gay.

 

and i dont care about the vote. all elections and voting in this country are effed.

 

in this case, the mormons saw to it that their will was imposed on others.

Ignorant people refer to it as that.

 

ok Mark, I'm not going to fight you on this. we obviously strongly disagree, and neither of us will be changing each other's minds.

 

theres a reason i stay far from the swamp that is PPP. nothing good comes out of arguing politics or religion, especially politics AND religion, and especially on the internet

Ummm... sorry, got to remind you this is the Internet. You two have to duke it out for 30+ pages of hate filled spiel while the peanut gallery throws in some comments/jokes here and there.

 

So get the gloves on and get going!

This is definitely not the end of this case, though. It's going to the 9th Circuit, and then hopefully to the US Supreme Court, if they grow a pair and grant review.

definitely not over. nothing is that simple, right?

 

but for a lot of people in love, it's a step in the right direction.

Q: what's the point of having direct propositions when some over-officious judge can just decide it's not law? I mean, why not just have judges run the whole country?

 

Are you asking why a judge can rule a law unconstitutional?

Schwarzenegger pleased with the decision; it's going to be appealed to the 9th Circuit pronto.

let the state perform legal civil unions and let religious or social institutions perform marriage why is this so freaken hard- one is the union of legal/financial entities the other the union of spiritual/emotional entities.

agreed. Probably due to the ultra-religious would be my guess...

No, I'm asking what the point is in having anyone but judges run the place.

 

When the prop beng voted on allows the majority to discriminate against the minority, then yes, an over-officious judge can just decide it's not a law.

 

Come on Joe, the Constitution is there to protect everyone, not just white protestant males, you know that.
