So The Mercury News article linked to the title explores some of the legality and the legal complications of Prop 8 .and then today we learned it will head to Supreme Court to be challlenged
and re-examined. What boggles the brain is that was it even legal to put it on the ballot ?
That is the problem with the open/public ballot measure process, often people do put things on it that turn out to be legal or practical nightmares.
ReplyDeleteI do hope it is thrown out, but the fact is 30 States have gay marriage bans. This has to be resolved on a Federal level, because even if they overturn it in California, (which I hope they do), it would remain illegal in 29 other states.
Unacceptable!
I agree with you....it should be decided Federally ( BUT not with the current people or bench in place .....there is time to do this in a way that benifits ALL....and honors all...Love should be protected in the Constitution....just like Health it is a RIGHT.....)
