But then, you didn't honestly believe that laws are passed against things that are inherently good, did you?
That's Right!!! All laws are passed against bad things, only!!
Blacks shouldn't have their freedom, dammit!
They shouldn't be allowed to vote...bring back Jim Crow!!!
Or go to the same school as my children....bring back segregation!!!
The poor shouldn't be allowed to vote....bring back voter tax!!
I believe the passing of the mentioned laws (slavery, literacy to vote, segregation, voter tax) in the past in this country, kinda negates your assertion that inherently good things don't have laws that restrict them. Unless, of course you believe that all people being free is a bad thing.
Seriously, discrimination against a group of people whose actions do not harm others is guarded against by the Constitution. It doesn't matter whether their inclusion in a group is by choice (religion) or not (handicapped). If DOMA is not discriminatory then why are federal courts being prevented from making rulings concerning it?
Does specifically defining marriage as a contract between only two persons of opposite sex constitute discrimination as defined by the Fourteenth Amendment?
Seems like it.
