Oh Supreme Court, how you tear my heart so...

On the one hand, the fact that you overturned the Washington DC gun ban is wonderful and, indeed, Constitutional. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

But then, on the other hand, you want to outlaw the death penalty for the most evil people in our society, child rapists? How is injection cruel and unusual?

Oh that's right, because child rape isn't murder, and murder is apparently only thing that we can kill the guilty for, and even then only sometimes. Great.

I mean, just think about it: child rape. Why can't we, as Americans, have things that are so hated that everyone will know their punishment if they do it and are found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt? Hell, now you can go around killing people and, depending on the state you live in, just chill for the rest of your life. This is insane.

If you rape a child, you don't need to be in our society anymore. It's as simple as that. Ironically, it's often the people who shout "rape and incest" from the mountain side regarding the dismemberment of fetuses who are against the death penalty from those who actually commit the crimes. Apparently liberals care more about the criminals than both the fetus and the rape victim.

Even better, Obama says he disagrees with the Court's decision on the death penalty for child rapists, thus making him look moderate before an election. Not that I believe him. I'm still waiting to see what McCain says, though I'm kind of scared to find out.

California's Top Court Overturns Same-Sex Marriage Ban

Once again, liberals get a court to hand them what the people don't want.

And I wonder why all of the Californians book it up here.

Perhaps it is because I have only relatively recently started accepting the fact that I'm gay, but I've gone from being completely uninterested in legalizing gay marriage to being completely uninterested in legalizing gay marriage. The arguments people throw out ("Love is love! OMG WTF!!!111!1") are so simplified that it's laughable.

California's voters, known for their right-wing extremism, already said they don't want gay marriage. California already has what is basically gay marriage with their blessed civil unions. And yet the liberals cannot abide not having their way, so they get a court to give whatever they want to them. And it will be appealed. And it will be struck down.

Do liberals not want to work for what they want and get people on their side? Just like with abortion, a court had to give them what they wanted without them using democracy.

Sensible thoughts from Gay Patriot.

EDIT: For those of you who have forgotten, let me explain how the United States is supposed to work. Your state has laws that reflect the values of the people. If you don't like it, you simply and very easily move to a state with your values. I don't care that people in California want gay marriage--what I care about is that they are forcing an entire state, through the courts of all pathetic places, to adhere to their set of values when they can simply move to Massachusetts.

EDIT 2: OK, it_gurl explained the court's thought process to me in a way that I understand. Read her comment here. Feel free to spam her for being right.
