The Supreme Court declined to review 5 lower court cases which affirmed the rights to same-sex marriage.  Instead of deciding that same-sex marriage is Constitutional, they did the same thing by not overturning 5 decisions.

I have to confess that when it first came along the idea bothered me.  I couldn’t think of why, it just did.  The longer I thought about it the more sense it makes.  Why should the law protect gays from the same miseries we heterosexuals have endured?  It shouldn’t!  Gays should have the right to suffer as have we have.

Ted Cruz is calling that “judicial activism”.   SCOTUS is guilty of “activism” by not ruling.  Almost to a court, the legal system hasn’t been able to find a constitutional bar to same-sex marriage and has refused to invent one.  And Cruz calls that “activism”.

I think that some of those folks can’t think.  And I think that some of those folks might better devote their energies to meaningful issues.  After all, if two people love each other and want to get married, who would be so petty as to stand in the way?

“Judicial activism” – not creating bogus constitutional reasons to bar gay marriage?  What a maroon.
