The Dangers of the Left again show up in Cali

Proposition 8 in California was approved by a majority of the voters in that state. The proposition is an amendment to the state's Constitution. It states that marriage is the union between one man and one woman and that California will not accept or recognize any union other than that no matter where or when that union took place.

In other words, gay marriage is now illegal in California and it is not just a law, the proposition actually adds an amendment to the Constitution which puts it off limits to activist judges. Or at least that is what those that support this law thought.

It would appear that there are those in California that do not want this law to go into effect. In fact they want to thwart the will of the people by using the courts again.

Don't get me wrong. I have nothing against gay people. In fact I have lots of friends who are gay. Surprising to me is the fact that many of them are not for gay marriage. Which goes to show that gays are not united on this issue as you have been lead to believe.

I for one, know that this nation was based on Judeo/Christian ethics by the Founding Fathers. Even though many of us may not like the idea but it is true, the bible does not allow for the union of a same sex couple. Although you could say that Jesus removed or fulfilled all the Lavitical laws, He did not do so for the 10 Commandments. One of those Commandments states that a man cannot lay or have sex with another man.

Now I will let theologians argue the merits of that issue. The other big issue is that the people of California have spoken. I find it amazing that when a minority thinks they have been wronged, they try and sue the majority. In effect, they hold the majority hostage. That was not the intent of the Constitution of any state or the Federal Government. The Constitutions do have provisions that keep the majority from pounding the minority into oblivion but that does not mean that the minority get to have their way whole sale.

This is how we get stupid laws dictated from the judicial bench. We get a few people who do not like what the majority have voted upon and thus take their losing case to the courts. The courts, in most cases, should toss these law suits out but liberal and activist judges have taken up the causes of the liberal minority and have thrust their rulings upon the majority thus holding the majority hostage.

This actually makes the majority the new minority. So would that mean we, the majority, are now the special protecties of the Constitution? We are being bullied by the minority. They bully us in court. They bully us in the press. And they try and bully us in the voting booth. They threaten to make your vote useless by taking every decision they don't like to a court. Talk about disenfranchised.

The point is this. The people of the state of California have spoken. If there is something you don't like about that vote, then you have the right to move. The Constitution does not give you the right to bully the majority when they do things legally. The courts have no jurisdiction on what can and cannot be added to the Constitution. It is time that some in the minority learn that if they keep fighting the will of the people, that those people will eventually give the minority something far more devastating than they expected.

This happened in California because when the people voted back in 2000 to make marriage between a man and a woman a plain law. The minority took them to court and a court forced something that the majority did not want. So the majority took matters into their hands and decided to do something radical. They decided to amend their Constitution which now makes it much more difficult if not impossible for gays to get their way. Good going to the minority of gays who have now just ruined life for the majority of gays.
