It would be incredibly wrong and massively disruptive to overturn Obergefell. Which doesn't mean that this jaw-droppingly right-wing SCOTUS majority won't do it. I mean, most people thought Roe v. Wade would never be overturned, and look how that turned out. Frankly, it wouldn't surprise me by this point if the majority decided to interpret the First Amendment as meaning, "You have the right to free speech, but only if you're a registered Republican."
Roe was never safe unless codified into law just like Ruth said. Roe was overturned because of apathy and lots of that young demographic who didn't care enough to vote or even register for that matter.
Yep, I said that. Saw it, heard it, tried to convince otherwise for over 30 years. But nope, if it wasn't apathy, it was purity pony shit. This is one of the reasons that the youth vote is going to have to prove it to me they are not all complaints and no shows. And I don't give a flying damn about what pronouns they want us to use until they give a damn enough to vote.
I have had to deal with the small town county court clerks in my mom’s hometown since she passed, and at least a couple of them there are exactly the kind of dimwit little hitlers that this train wreck Kim Davis is.
One of my many problems with a certain form of Christianity is the idea that no matter how many shitty sins you have committed, once you find Jesus, it all A-OK; your ticket to heaven. Emperor Constantine did not get baptized until he was on his death bed (had his wife murdered some time earlier). So he's up there, too.
Not sure how Kim Davis has anything to do with gay marriage- I believe it’s is lack of standing. A plaintiff cannot sue based on generalized grievances that affect a large group of people. The injury must be specific to the individual bringing the suit. Except for the fact that she is a bigoted pig- she is not a gay person, it’s stretch to say that gay married people do her any harm except in her fucking pathetic pea brain. Not sure that counts. Can’t wait to hear how she describes how she has been injured by gay marriage. I am a bigoted pig wont work. At least it should not work.

Them fothermucking Supremes!!

You ain’t a bigot if yore personal babby jebus sez you ain’t.
Sorry to go full New Jersey, but how did she find four guys willing to fuck her, let alone marry her?
Three. Two and four, I believe, were the same person.
Which does bring up even more questions about him.
Look at all of the terrible conservative incel men, desperate to get laid. You can work out the rest for yourself.
I think one of them married her twice!
Just pay the god damn fine, Kymbyrlyeigh.
REALLY blows! ✌🏻❤️🇺🇸

"The overturn of Obergefell is far from a done deal. But, on the other hand, it also seems inevitable, "
Wow, two Wonkette posts in a row counselling surrender in advance
I think Justice Thomas would be delighted to overturn Loving v. Virginia.
The legal theory being very Thomas indeed; "I got mine, so f*ck you."
Why the fucking Bowdlerization?
Overturn?
Uncle Ruckus wants to *cast the deciding vote* to overturn Loving v. Virginia.
That's his favorite precedent
Apropos of nothing, George Orwell once said “at 50, everyone has the face he deserves.”
She has the PERFECT right-wing position: People I don't approve of can't have rights! It violates my rights that they have rights! Stop it!

That behavior is endemic to xianity in general.
"So he's up there, too."
He's not. Nor are any of them.
Which of her marriages is Obergefell threatening?
If you don't like gay marriage blame straight people. They're the ones having the gay babies.

She wants revenge. You know, that Christian thing when they are wronged for being wrong.
They ignore that verse about "Vengance is mine, saith the Lord"; i.e., God is the only one allowed revenge.
But that's the beauty of 1200+ pages of fine print where no sentence relates to any other sentence- you can PIDOOMA till God agrees with you!

Lack of standing won't stop them. Why would it? Precedent doesn't stop them.
Judging only by the hair I'd say -- confidently -- Kim's in regular contact with God.
