Supreme Court rules gay couples nationwide have a right to marry Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Google Plus Share via Email Share on WhatsappShare on Pinterest Share on LinkedIn Share on Tumblr Resize Text Print Article Comments 8 Katherine Nicole Struck, 25, of Frederick Md., sits alongside members of the ACLU in support of marriage equality outside the Supreme Court on Friday. (Brittany Greeson/The Washington Post) By Robert Barnes June 26 at 10:02 AM BREAKING NEWS: In a landmark victory for gay rights, a divided Supreme Court ruled that state prohibitions on same-sex marriage violate the Constitution. The Supreme Court will be back at work Friday putting the finishing touches on a historic term, with one major decision completed and a landmark ruling on same-sex marriage to be announced. The court on Thursday delivered a pair of decisions that delighted civil rights groups and the Obama administration. In one, it said that the protections of the Fair Housing Act of 1968 extend beyond policies that are intentionally discriminatory and forbid actions that appear neutral but have the effect of harming minorities. More prominently, the justices upheld a major part of the Affordable Care Act that said subsidies intended to help low- and moderate-income Americans buy health insurance are available to all who qualify, not just to those who live in states that have set up insurance marketplaces. The 6-to-3 ruling in the ACA case was a major victory for President Obama and seemed to ensure that his signature domestic achievement will endure after he leaves office. The justices will announce more decisions Friday morning, and the most closely watched will be whether they decide that the Constitution requires states to offer marriage to gay couples as well as straight ones. The court’s answer could mean that same-sex couples nationwide have the right to marry. A series of lower-court rulings have extended marriage rights to gay couples in 36 states, and public opinion polls have recorded a surge in approval for such marriages. Besides Friday, the court is scheduled to issue decisions Monday, which is scheduled to be the final day of the term. The court does not announce in advance which cases it will be deciding Besides same-sex marriage, other important decisions await. The court is considering whether Congress meant for the Environmental Protection Agency to consider costs when coming up with regulations to limit emissions of mercury and other hazardous pollutants from coal- and oil-fired power plants. Congress ordered the EPA to study whether it was “appropriate and necessary” to regulate the pollutants from power plants but was silent on whether that study should include the costs of regulation. The justices are also reviewing how far states may go in trying to keep partisan politics out of congressional redistricting. Arizona voters in 2000 voted to turn over redistricting to an independent commission. But Republicans who control the state legislature say that the Constitution’s Election Clause gives that responsibility to the legislature. The justices also are considering how states may execute prisoners using lethal injection, which was the subject of rancorous oral arguments in April. Lawyers for death row inmates in Oklahoma allege that the use of a sedative called midazolam has resulted in troubling executions that violate the Constitution’s prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment.

The poster above me is twice ignorant than the 17th century primitive man. Legalizing same sex marriage is a step in the right direction to curb overpopulation invariably optimizing the economy for better growth and development. What the first world sees,the third world cannot see it even if they climb to the top of kilimanjaro. P.S-im NOT gay,I'm just been rational here. 5 Likes 1 Share |

wiegraf: The reactions from these right wing american Christians are pure comedy gold. People are threatening everything from secession to a Russian invasion to earthquakes and other disasters to a full-on apocalypse. One pastor is apparently threatening to set himself on fire, and a whole presidential candidate (Bobby Jindal) wants to scrap the supreme court. Just go to any Christian or right wing website and read the comments, they're hilarious. The Christians are going full retàrd over this and its so glorious! Today is a good day. 4 Likes |

What are people saying sef? How can someone be a homosexual? Would he be alive if his parents were? What the hell is wrong with humans lately? Why do they think with their anus? Thank God is America and not Nigeria. We still have our senses intact... Imagine!!! Humans want to anger God so that he can visit his wrath on mankind.. Anyone engaged in it needs deliverance because the causative demon is on the loose. Christ have mercy... 2 Likes |

Hiploko: America is hundreds of years ahead of the cesspool you call Nigeria. If given the chance you will run away from Nigeria and leave in America. Most of the developed countries have legalized gay union, why has your God not visited his wrath on them? Instead he is constantly visiting his wrath on Nigeria. You don't even have stable electricity despite the tens of billions of dollars your government has thrown at the electricity sector( you have finished destroying yourselves with constant theft) yet you are talking about the USA. 4 Likes |

I bet you that most if not all the ills in Nigeria is faced by America. It is a global thing and not a nation thing. If they are far ahead why haven't they found the solution to death?

EvilBrain1: It baffles me why religionists hate freedom so much. The sheer hypocrisy is what I can never get over. The right wing nuts who have no problems with invading and destroying small countries, leaving millions dead and displaced, now only think their schizophrenic god will be angry at laws that grants equal rights and dignity to all humans, but worse of all, they take upon themselves to prejudge ahead of god and fight for gods right to hate. It is just mindboggling. 5 Likes |

dalaman:well I know it is the demon behind it that makes those guilty of the act to want to prove it is right. It is evil because God made sex for man and woman, remember sodom and gomorah. If your parents were homosexuals,u wouldn't be here typing on NL. What happens to procreation? How will new babies be born? Is God foolish to have made sperm mobile to seek an egg for fertilization?if it was right it would have been sperm vs sperm. Gooossshhhh!!! Can't believe sumone is actually supporting. For this case, I thank the Lord I am a Nigerian. For this cause, I feel proud to be a Nigerian. Some things unite us in this country.. Sports, education offshore etc. I bet you that the fight AGAINST homosexuality will unite us more. Christians and muslims. 14yrs imprisonment.. That is if you survive jungle justice |

plaetton: Nobody cares what people do in their rooms. Legalising gay marriage means gay couples have rights like heterosexual couples including adopting children. Abuse of God given freedoms can herald the beginning of a destructive path for mankind. God is like a father who warns us about dangerous paths ahead of time. |
