I don't know why people keep saying SCOTUS shouldn't have been the one to make this decision. If not them, then who? What's separates Obergefell v. Hodges from cases like Roe vs Wade and Brown vs. the board of education? Should SCOTUS have not ruled on that? Some things are justifiable and important enough to override leaving it up to each individual state. This is one of those things imo. And your comparison to the Confederate flag/American flag is different. Gay marriage literally hurts no one. In the form of a rainbow flag, it carries no baggage. Which is unlike the Confederate flag, which stands for what the Confederates believed: Pro-slavery and white supremacy. As for the American flag, that encompasses everything this country has ever done, good and bad. It's different from the Confederate flag because that refers to a specific point in history and a certain geographical area in which the people held harmful beliefs. It hurts people who think it is wrong (Like Jeff) No it doesn't. He may not think it's right, but it is not harmful to him. His life is not changed negatively in any way by this.

If you cant do that yourself,then I pity you. I can see though how you believe what you want to believe though. You have been programmed to hate.

I'm offended by a flag also. The checkered flag when my driver is not in first. Dang checkered flag. And the green/white/checkered is even worse when Divebitch's car is in front.
