From the start, voting on marriage for other citizens was an act of discrimination..
and should have NEVER been put to vote. Marriage for one group makes it OK for the other, period..

If marriage can not be given to all peoples, perhaps we need to just ban all marriage and make it a contract only partnership between two people. No longer will it be called marriage, but a Contractual Partnership.

The California allowed a group of people to remain second class citizens, so why the fuck are those 'second class' citizens paying California state taxes?? They should not be paying those taxes if they are not equal.

2. True. But, if you look at the situation, it stems from this
imaginary friend in the sky idea, whereby they have an imaginary friend in the sky, who tells them that they must stop other people from doing things.
They believe that this imaginary friend created all we have today, such as war, starvation, poverty, air pollution, crime, all those things. Just a damn nasty sona gun, the imaginary friend. A fiend, really.
And this is just one more aspect of the evil. Previous ones were slavery, lynchings, the crusades.
It is the establishment of a religion, or their perverted idea of what a religion is.
And then getting it to take over the government.
I think part of it is that there are no other scapegoats available.
It will take time, but the US Supreme Court will rule to the contrary. So give it time. Thus ends my own rambling rant and outrage against the injustice of it.
But you still just gotta pay your taxes.

5. The contractual partnership thing is actually the only sensible secular way to go about it.
