During April 2015, the US Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Obergefell v Hodges and consolidated cases. The questions presented for the Court to decide are:

The 14th amendment does not read:
In New Zealand and Canada and most everywhere else, "gays" get civil unions or 'civil partnerships' not marriages. But is the MSM attacking New Zealand, Canada and those places?

During April 2015, the US Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Obergefell v Hodges and consolidated cases. The questions presented for the Court to decide are:

All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside and if such persons don't like the laws of the state wherein they reside they can appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States to get a license to ignore them.
