Marriage Equality

“It’s 2022 and 157 Republicans just voted against marriage equality. That’s where they come down on this issue. In 2022.”

United States Secretary of Transportation, Pete Buttigeig

This mindset is stuck at some point in the past when social, public and legal repression was ever present in the way people lived and behaved and before people lived lives that are true and full. But we as people have evolved and ARE living lives that are true and full. Nothing that is done by the Supreme Court or by government will ever reverse that fact. The Supreme Court ruled on marriage equality when it wasn’t under the control of a socially regressive conservative majority that apparently is now reviewing the possible human rights that it granted in its own rulings that it can take back from the people. This conservative Supreme Court will overturn every human right that it ruled on that it can. Eventually the government will have to codify equality into law. Equality of women and men, or all races, of all religions and atheism, of humanity. Human rights are not violations of the Constitution. Eventually equality and human rights will be enshrined in immutable law in the United States if it is ever going to become that true shining beacon it claims to be. And the Supreme Court will not be able to overturn, reverse, or take it back. Especially if it is “settled law.”
