Stupid people talking about the California same-sex marriage lawsuit
New rule: if you're on a talk show, talking about the California's Supreme Court ruling on same-sex marriage, and you say something to the effect, "They ignored the wishes of the 60% of Californians who voted to ban same-sex marriage in 2000," the host of the show shall be required to punch you in the face. If you think that courts should consider, even for a moment, the majority preference, you clearly have no idea what the purpose of the state Supreme Court is and should shut your pie hole.
If you argue that banning same sex marriage isn't sexist or religious, but instead the state encouraging childbearing so our population doesn't shrink, you might also need face punches administered. If you honestly believe this, you need to explain why it's legal for sterlized men and women to wed. Also, if you're really afraid that our country is about to shrink, check the numbers. We're expecting 4.3 million new births, but only 2.5 million deaths. We're not in any danger of having a shrinking population. Also, what's the point? Do you think that if same-sex marriage is banned, they'll decide to marry someone of the opposite sex and have kids?
Bleh. Too many stupid people on the radio.
