California Supreme Court Overturns Same-Sex Marriage Ban
Well our not-so glorious California Supreme Court has chose to ignore the will of the people of California and bat down a ban of Same-Sex Marriages in California.
“Pro-family” organizations have submitted more than 1.1 million signatures for an initiative that would amend the state Constitution to outlaw same-sex marriage. If at least 694,354 signatures are found to be valid, the measure would go on the November ballot and, if approved by voters, would override any court ruling in favor of same-sex marriage.
In a 4-3 decision this “leading” state, the second to do so, said that it would welcome gay marriages.
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said he will support the decision.
“I respect the court’s decision and as governor, I will uphold its ruling,” Schwarzenegger said in a statement. “Also, as I have said in the past, I will not support an amendment to the constitution that would overturn this state Supreme Court ruling.”
Disgusting.
It is funny how much respect our politicians have for the will of the people, until the will of the people goes against their will. The Cal State Supreme Court should be impeached. They have no right, legal, or constitutional standing to overturn Prop 22.
