A sad day for those of us hoping to weaken and eventually abolish the arbitrary and artificial institution of marriage. One day though... One day.
:thumbsup:this is hilarious, they just won the right to marry each other and think a proper celebration is to fly a flag with huge dildos and butt plugs on it
an ISIS flag would be less offensive than this
Why is consensual sex illegal in public?
Why is nudity illegal?
Why is kissing or making out illegal in public?
Does it hurt anyone? How did these bans come about?
That depends on what you mean by what they deserve. You are free to try to offend them as you are offended but since the whole purpose of your point was to criticize their offensiveness it hardly seems rational to turn around and do exactly what you criticize them for doing. You can't, however, take the law in your own hands based on some personal opinion as to who deserves what like a vigilante.
I believe that if you demonize people of some stereotype long enough and hard enough, as I believe gay people have experienced at the hands of 'loving Christians' that you might just want to be offensive back. The only way to end this childish tit for tat, in my opinion, is to take on the suffering and suffer it without reacting. Don't react to what you see as offensive behavior because it is caused by and a reaction to being offended and your reaction just makes it worse. It is very hard to overcome self hate projected on the other because we self justify every kind of evil in the world.
Because nobody wants to see that crap in public. Those things should be private between the two parties involved. Kissing isn't illegal as far as I know and should be acceptable. When it goes beyond just a kiss it should be taken elsewhere. People have children in public places, they should be shielded from this until they are mature enough.
Get a damn room.

it's not like this is exclusive to gay people, though.
here's a giant flag of Kim Kardashian giving a guy a blowjob at a music festival -- https://i.imgur.com/KQffSiX.jpg

Why do the gay people feel a need to display this type of crap? I really would like to know. That and all the other shit that goes on at these parades is what hurts their cause.

Well when they run around and act like @ssholes and get treated like @ssholes, then too bad. They are getting what they deserve.
Here's the hetero version of that dildo flag:
You can pretty much call Big Johnson the flag of Myrtle Beach. "sexually offensive" in public is not something exclusive to gays, you know.
lol, look at this one:
Blah Blah Blah ... Wall of stupid text....
See how easily you can reject what offends you. You need to learn to relax and not take offense at anything. Your bigotry is completely safe, shielded by a wall of impregnable egotistical self certainty. You are completely immune to rainbow colors in your black and white-striped prison world.
Did it ever occur to you that maybe he just doesn't want to read 3 paragraphs of psychobabble.
The court also whacked the ACCA in an 8-1 which governed some mandatory sentencing. Prosecutors were using the threat of 15 year minimum sentences to get people to plead guilty.
Unfortunately this ruling won't do much to stop prosecutors from continuing to bully people into pleading guilty. That's why they pile so many charges on people, a lot of time they will pile on bogus charges that will never stick but it gives them more leverage to scare people into plea deals, innocent and guilty alike.
An innocent man charged with whatever crime has a prosecutor telling him that if he doesn't take the plea deal for 2 years he is going to nail him to the wall and seek the maximum 20-30 year sentence. Let's assume that you can't afford a great attorney and instead are relying on a public defender. A good portion of those people have and will take the plea deal, despite being innocent of the crime, versus rolling the dice that their public defender or low rent lawyer will win their case.
When we disagreed with Bush v. Gore and got f'ed up our collective 6's with that decision, did we once say just get rid of the court?
What a nutter.. I'm amazed such stupidity exists in America, much less manifests itself in a Governor.. but I guess we shouldn't be surprised.. we got a President who misunderestimated everything.
It's one less lever for them to pull at least. Mandatory minimums (outside of murder or manslaughter) are probably one of the dumber ideas after elected judges that our system indulges in.
The justice system, unfortunately, needs a lot of work. It's basically a black hole for poor people right now.

It seems ironic that gays who are mostly left leaning would support such an old fashioned conservative institution such as marriage.

There are legal implications to marriage which you seemingly are not accounting for.
Ye- Wait! No!so you a expert at looking at young pussy? :awe:
Kinda different things. Concealed carry permits are inherently limited, permission to carry under very specific circumstances in a limited geographical area under the jurisdiction of those setting the constraints. Marriage is inherently a binary issue: one either is or is not married. A better analogy for CCW would be specific privileges and limitations based on marriage status. If say Tennessee has a requirement that only married couples are eligible for a particular adoption process, that is not now binding on California. What changed is that Tennessee is no longer free to declare that a gay couple married in California is not a married couple.So I take it this means concealed carry permits granted in one state are nation wide, and Obama is going to stop raiding MJ dispensaries?
I saw some mention about "marrying the one you love," unfortunately we still don't have that and probably never will.
Well said.This is really a huge strawman...I can't see why many so-called "educated" people keep regurgitating this.
Christians do not oppose gay marriage because it affects them one way or the other -- they oppose it because the Bible doesn't support homosexual relationships.
Don't come with the interpretation of Biblical passages red herring nonsense.
Their opposition lies squarely on the belief that God created marriage to between one man and one woman. If you want to use the polygamy angle, still, those unions didn't include persons of the same-sex marrying.
Well said.You dont need to define marriage. All they did was uphold the constitution, specifically the bill of rights.
ALL Americans get treated equally by the government, at any level. Thats the law.
If the state decides to give you tax credits and property rights because you are "married" then it needs to apply to everyone. Not just whites. Not just christians. Not just heterosexuals.
Every human being gets equal treatment.
(from the law. Theres no guarantee of equality from private citizens or private businesses.)
I can't wait until the first prominent social conservative gets denied a marriage license because of protected personal beliefs.And Texas is following: http://nyti.ms/1JoLD12
What an asshole. If you don't want to be issuing marriage licenses for the secular government: find another job. You don't get to use whatever power you have in the government as a tool to force your personal beliefs on another.
In all fairness, this isn't just a right wing situation. Who here remembers the Democrat-dominated Supreme Court of New Jersey going through gyrations when the party wanted to replace the Torch to hold onto that Senate seat? Well, it says you can't replace a candidate after the deadline, but it's totally silent on procedure when you do replace a candidate after the deadline, so it's up to us to create that procedure.Yes officer, I saw the speed limit sign. But the sign didn't say I had to follow it.
Checkmate.
