Polygamy discussed by national, well-respected politco, exact day of ruling: http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2...ml#.VY4JpaRCdJMEnjoy people. Honestly, I hope they win (i would even donate to their legal fund or help represent them). I have completely checked out on this country and its institutions.
Should probably ask Mr. Kierney. I guess if you're Italian, you should be in prison. I've read the RICO Act, and I can tell you it's more appropriate... for some of those guys over in Washington than it is for me or any of my fellas here

I think it should have been up to the states to decide.
I have a problem with nine lawyers being able to make a decision that affects over 300 million citizens. this has always bothered me, I felt the same way when 9 judges declared prayer in school unconstitutional. there is absolutely no states rights, because of 9 shameful dictators.

Didn't read the article but I agree polygamy is o k as long as it is between two consenting adults Uhh....lol dude. Polygamy by definition is more than two consenting adults. Unless this is a joke/sacarism- which in that case well done.

It should have been left up to the states. I have been a supporter of gay marriage for some time now, and I'm happy they have the right to marry everywhere, but in some states the majority of people don't support it. I would have rather seen it left up to the states, or a Congressional Constitutional Amendment. Legislation not the Courts should have made this decision. The churches should retain their right to marry whom they want. Let the gays and lesbians marry, I'm very happy for them, but don't force it down people's throats who don't want to accept it. Tolerance must go both ways. For those for and against, a free society must remain free and the two sides must remain respectful of one another.

Oh, and in case, you country bumpkins think this is the end, that we will all in peace now- http://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-new...eb1f07d536c7aecGet ready for the next social justice train. The next station? Complete elimination of gender, family, etc. Can't imagine raising kids in this culture.

I'm sorry but if someone supports or defends the above they are either sick in the head, morally bankrupt, or both. What's the common denominator of all of this? Liberal secularism.

Iwo Jima and gay rights? The two don't even fucking equate. That is highly disrespectful.
I regret to say that though I wish this was the end of the issue it won't be. Little Nicky and Wiseguy are right in that respect. From what I've seen online and people I've talked to the push for equality will continue. The list goes something like this:
-Amendment to the Civil Rights Bill of 1964 to cover gays and lesbians
-Statewide anti discrimination bills
-Prevent gays from being fired, lose housing, or refused service
-The assistance of homeless youth, which some claim are disproportionately transgender or gay
-To receive the same privileges and benefits straight couples do
Thoughts? I know this sounds admirable, but I have a bad feeling this movement, like Civil Rights and feminism before it, are going to be hijacked by extremists. I've already seen a few people on facebook question religious protection, as it is a choice and shouldn't be valued under the law. This troubles me.
Tolerance is only achieved when both sides realize the folly of attacking each other viciously. If the left truly is all about tolerance, they would extend an open hand to their former adversaries and at times, oppressors. But now it's about an agenda.
I have a question for all of these activists. When does it end? When is true equality attained? They usually don't have the answers to those questions.
What I want is tolerance, freedom, liberty, and justice. But it seems when one group gets it, they turn around and take it away from someone else. It's happened countless times throughout history.

With elections coming up deflection is here, with this and the Confederate flag. Lets not worry about the market being down 300 points today, Puerto Rico close to defaulting and Greece in economic turmoil both which destabilize the global economy. Russia and China doing what they want, Iran and ISIS. This nonsense is what is filling the news. What's next to keep us distracted from what is actually going on a new war on women?

You'll be amused at least Dude. Once you realize (which you have) that's it's all bread and circuses you just find all the partisan screaming about 'Libruls!' on one side and 'Nazis!' on the other entertaining instead of infuriating
Divide and conquer the sheeple. And the populace plays right into it, just like those with power want.
All God's children are not beautiful. Most of God's children are, in fact, barely presentable.
I never met anyone who didn't have a very smart child. What happens to these children, you wonder, when they reach adulthood?
