Court halts Calif gay marriages pending appeal - Aug 2010

SAN FRANCISCO ? Same-sex weddings in California are on hold indefinitely after a federal appeals court blocked the unions Monday while it considers the constitutionality of the state's gay marriage ban.

The decision, issued by a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, trumps a lower court judge's order that would have allowed county clerks to begin issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples on Wednesday.

Chief U.S. District Court Judge Vaughn Walker decided last week to allow gay marriages to go forward after ruling that the ban, known as Proposition 8, violated equal protection and due process rights of gays and lesbians guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution.

The Proposition 8 legal team quickly appealed Walker's ruling in a case that many believe will end up before the Supreme Court.

:2 cents: lol.... what a clusterfuck. :1orglaugh

Yep, damn gays getting married!


Who cares that the Federal government is robbing us blind... heh. Gay people getting married is going to screw EVERYTHING UP!!


Priority fail.

yeah.... I'm sure glad we're still pissing money away on this.

oh snap!

Wow, who didn't see this one coming? I'm surprised Amputate and the other liberals on this forum aren't calling the Supreme Court bigots. Score 1 for the good guys(not gays).

sorry.. already got married to juicy...

we are on our honeymoon in st barts....



.

Why is this such a big deal?

But you don't know why, do you. :)

I'll tell ya D,.... it's because I'm not a liberal, I'm not gay, I'm not a jeezuz freak, nor a homophobe, and I don't fucking care one way or the other. Neither decision affects me in any way. But I do love pushing your buttons. It's a fun way to kill an afternoon. :)

I'm not sure if you've ever pushed my buttons (delusional), or why you think it's "afternoon". I'm sure you've definitely killed the afternoon by sitting on gfy but it would be night time right now. Also, I wasn't addressing you directly and the fact that you responded the way you did makes me think I pushed your buttons, which is hilarious. And finally, you've made many "ur a big0t!!!" comments when someone didn't agree to same sex marriages. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Yeah.... I've had plenty of time to kill this summer. It's been fun here. :)

No worries my gay friends.... this is only a tiny bump in the road. It's only a matter of time before it's allowed. It is sad that we have to live with religious homophobic stains in our Country, but no worries... they are dying off.

Another road block for progressivism :thumbsup

Gotta love theDoc's optimism (denial, hilarious rationalization).

Fuck those faggots!...no homo!

I wasn't aware I denied anything and I'm glad I could make you laugh. It has nothing to do with optimism, I'm simply following the facts. Gay approval has greatly increased in the last 40 years and it will continue to do so, as it does all over the world.

I love knowing you religious homophobic freaks wont be able to twist your values on society much longer, it's the one bright future America has.

Well, you just once again described your denial. I could use "delusional" but you wouldn't understand that. And you definitely provide humor with your "he doesn't like same sex marriages so he must be a religious fanatic/homophobe" logic. But please, keep telling us a certain type of people are dying out when there's evidence to the contrary. Your stupid ass is unparalleled at arguing against facts. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Other than you haven't posted any evidence or facts :1orglaugh:1orglaugh Speaking of denial, it's without question that you're a religious nut case that is homophobic. It really makes no difference what excuse you want to use to rationalize your view point. The only fact that actually matters in this conversation is that it will pass one day, if you like it or not.

Haha and as usual, thedoc repeats everything I just said to him and uses his patented "without question" or "everybody/anybody" delusional logic. Thanks for playing doc. All of your responses are definitely predictable and give us something to laugh at.:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Well at least you didn't deny it.... and yes, "everyone here" (not like you couldn't find someone that didn't) thinks you're a homophobic religious nut freak. And truly, that's all that matters. It makes no difference what you think - we all think otherwise.

And yes I'm sure we'll get another spewing bullshit reply from you, typical and expected by "everyone."

fundamental rights for all, coming soon.

Right on...this thing will get taken care of. Between appeals and moving to the High Court, I expect some type of ruling in early-mid 2012

Just give me my fucking rights. I don't care what you call it:thumbsup

Nobody cares what you think TheDoc. Hell, you can't even get 10 people to vouch for you or even call you remotely intelligent. "Everyone here" thinks you're a moron with a severe brain injury. :winkwink::winkwink:

I love how this, the mosque thing and the border in Arizona is coming up right before the midterms, it's going to be a free for all circus on the TV with pundits not knowing which side to be on to benefit them the most. Simple because of what Barry said about the Mosque and his taking Arizona to court and saying he's against gay marriage, that doesn't leave the democrats in a good place, given the economy and jobs.

Sounds like the democrats will be running on we passed the unpopular healthcare bill, the stimulus for jobs that didn't work, but if you vote for the GOP, you're going to go back to the way they had it, GOOD strategy, LMAO

The funny thing is, the conservatives/republicans are all united yet again, especially with this Mosque shit, while the Democrats are divided once again.

Fundementally I have no problem with queers shacking up, and they should recieve the same economic rights blah blah.

What I don't like:

-Don't call it marriage. Call it civil partnership, not marriage
-Shouldn't equate to same rights for adoption.

Going to edit this paragraph so it reads how it's supposed to read:

"Chief U.S. District Court Judge Vaughn Walker decided last week to allow gay marriages to go forward after ruling that the ban, known as Proposition 8, violated equal protection and due process rights of CITIZENS guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution."

Just passing by...

Better if kids need to be adopted, they should be.
It's not a standard family set up, but how many of us have grown up with both parents under the same roof? Better that a kid has a family, period, it may not what some call perfect, but it's better than growing up without one.

Exactly how I see it, perfectly. But don't start using logic and common sense. Moronic liberals like thedoc will call you a bigot, homophobe, or religious fanatic REGARDLESS of how sound your argument is.

Damn you guys are against the Constitution and you admit it?


Hahaha... Son, if you want to call it a different name, you have a reason. Otherwise, you're like me and you know it makes no difference, at all. So... what is your reason?

They're for amending the constitution to ban gay marriages and flag burning (remember that one?). They're also now for repealing article 1 of the constitution because it's politically expedient to do so (mosque).
Real "country first" stuff going on here as usual.

Like 2008? Just Asking....

I'm all for flag burning as long as the person thats burning it is drenched in gasoline

Hahaha, what an idiot. Hey shit stain, understand if I even have 1 person vouch for me, it's far more than you'll ever get. You're a nobody in our Industry that will always be known as a political troll on gfy... :1orglaugh

I'll let you get back to pretending you're something more than a pussy keyboard warrior now.

Ok Ok...I'm here to vouch for the TheDoc. The dude knows his shit...believe me :thumbsup

wtf you care about a bunch of homo's for?

I believe I've had more people vouch for me than the 5-6 that vouched for you. How sad is it when someone who isn't really in your industry commands more respect than you in your own industry? Hahahaha what a loser.. You'll always be known as the butt of most of the jokes on this forum. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I don't ... but I think that of you ...

Don't be so cruel. Lawyers and judges need to earn a living. LOL

Are you really on an adult industry forum, talking about who this is good for gays not to get married? And why do you think that, some sort of pseudo-theist beliefs you have?

they can work as test subjects for shampoo testing, save the rats

Yes, believe it or not, this forum has its fair share of conservatives, if not 50-50.

hahahaha

I understand that. You don't have to label yourself something.

Anyway, I do find it mildly amusing the "conservative Christians" (Or any other religious zealots) that come on this forum, or even participate in the adult industry.

Federal government, just ass raping us all, 1 right after another...

...soon you won't be able to have guns in your own home or at all! Fuck that.

Everyone wave bye to Mr. Bush, and welcome Mr. Obama - I refuse to address either as "President"

Keep your blinders on people. Ignorance is bliss.

What I find amusing is the constant incompetence surrounding by the adult industry (rightfully so), especially when asserting that "porn" and religion/conservativism are somehow mutually exclusive. Here's a thought. I personally don't care for porn, yet I support it as a 1st amendment right as long as it's contained!

LOL, I don't support religion, nor do I support your right to beat people over the head with it.

I'm not sure where I ever tried to get anyone to conform to any religious standards, but then again you're not exactly known to have the ability to follow a discussion.:1orglaugh

Yawn, still pretending that you're somebody.

Who are these magical 'people' you've met and done business with in our Industry that could actually vouch for you, within this Industry?

You can return to the lala land in your head again... It's not like you could answer the question.
