Tyranny of the majority and gay marriage

[AllPurposeAtheist]

Regardless of what you might think about the marriage contract it has little to do with the court's role in overturning laws. Personally I could give a hoot because I was only married once to some bitch over 30 years ago and probably won't try that silliness again in my lifetime. Sometimes I'll say I had two wives, but number 2 and I never actually married, just lived together for 22 years...shacked up in SIN!  :shock:
The point is that legislatures are generally really so fucked up they can't pour piss out of a boot with directions stamped on the heel. The courts aren't always any better, but at this point in time the courts are doing generally better than elected yokels who are almost always partisan and not reflecting sensible legislation.
