Although there were celebrations amongst the
homosexual community at San Francisco City Hall, and here in Massachusetts, the reality of it all is that same-sex "marriages" are
NOT legal in one state of this union,
not one.
The California Supreme Court ruled this past Thursday that same-sex "marriages" are to be ALLOWED in the state, but did not rule they were legal in the state, as creating law is not the role of the court system. The people will decide the fate of marriage at the ballot box this upcoming November.

As reported in the New York Times:
"The ban on same-sex marriage was based on a law enacted in 1977 and a statewide initiative approved by the voters in 2000, both defining marriage as limited to unions between a man and a woman."
In California, it is Gov. Schwarzenegger's constitutionally sworn duty to ignore the CA Supreme Court's recent opinion and make clear to the citizens of California that same-sex "marriages" are not "legal" until and unless the voters either amend the constitution or pass a law via our elected officials to amend the current marriage statutes to accommodate said same-sex "marriages".
In Massachusetts former Gov. Mitt Romney illegally issued same-sex "marriage" licenses without an accompanying statute claiming the "court legalized same-sex marriages" and that he was just "following a court order."
The Goodridge court in Massachusetts
never claimed they were creating a new marriage law. In fact they said so in their opinion:
"We conclude, as did the judge, that M.G.L. c. 207 may not be construed to permit same-sex couples to marry."
In a joint letter to Governor Mitt Romney from pro-family leaders many asked the governor to immediately order all "marriage" licenses illegal.

It was not an "activist" or "rogue" court that instituted same-sex "marriages" in Massachusetts even though the judges should have been impeached for even hearing the case because they lacked subject matter according to Article 5 of the MA Constitution. It was Mitt Romney and Mitt Romney ONLY who illegally installed same-sex "marriages" in Massachusetts (or at least the perception that "gay marriage" is "legal") which has led to all sorts of violations of parent's rights (David Parker), religious liberty, and rampant homosexual indoctrination starting in kindergarten. This is a VITAL distinction! Romney was/is the
Founding Father of same-sex "marriage" in the United States of America!
Romney had the obligation to ignore the Goodridge decision at the very least and then to call for impeaching the rogue judges as he was advised to do by numerous constitutional scholars (which he chose not to do).
Kris Mineau, executive director of the conservative group the Massachusetts Family Institute, call(ed) the decision (in California) “an attack on democracy.”

O.K., so let me get this straight. Californians voted in 2000 to ban same-sex "marriages" from becoming legal. The California Supreme Court ruled this past Thursday that the ban on gay "marriage" is unconstitutional. The people voted and the courts interpreted marriage as a constitutional civil right for all.
As I have said time and time again on my blog, the courts APPLY the law, they do not CREATE the law. Civil rights come from the democratic process, not lawsuits and court decisions. The people or their elected representatives vote to give particular claims the legal status of civil rights. That's called the "consent of the governed".
In Massachusetts same-sex "marriage" was NEVER approved by the people at the ballot box and was rejected by the people's elected representatives in the state legislature and ignored by our former governor. In both California and Massachusetts those who want same-sex "marriage" to be treated as a civil right and its opponents to be punished as bigots lack democracy's backing. The people of both states never voted to make same-sex "marriage" a civil right. Period!
The issue is not about whether civil rights should be put to a vote, but about voting whether to elevate same-sex "marriage" to the level of a civil right in the first place. Deciding civil rights is the people's civil right not the courts.
With the state of California already with 1 million signatures to put the definition of marriage on the ballot in November, it is a no brainer that California will become the 27th
state in the union to constitutionally ban same-sex "marriages". The homosexual community will soon come to find that they can not depend on activist judges and lazy governors to legalize their sexual proclivities because that is UNCONSTITUTIONAL in America. In a democracy the legislative branch that represents the people decide the laws and not those in black robes. Although radical homosexuals think they have won a victory with the California and Massachusetts decision, they will soon come to grips that their victory will be short lived.
Let The People Vote!!
