Oh give it up. The country did not crack up when interracial marraige was forced upon the states. The states were given time to make the change and in 1967 when 17 state still opposed interracial marriage, the federal government trumped them all with the case Loving verses the state of Virginia. Let Indiana be backwards and on the wrong side of history and in 20 years or so they will look just like the backwards people that opposed interracial marriage. They tyrants are those who want to force their religious beliefs on everyone, they have their religious marriage and want to interfere with civil marriage.
It did crack it just didn't fall apart just like it won't fall apart on this idea alone...its just another crack in the cement keeping the country together its quite fractured by now. Again why even have a 10th amendment if the federal government doesn't like what you are doing they just act like the school bully and force you to do as they say...Indiana isn't backwards or on the wrong side of history they are in the right. Everyone thinks yer nuts if yer the only one running in the right direction and they are all running in the wrong...just stand your ground. The only tyrant around is the lone judge who thinks his word carries more weight than MILLIONS of citizens of a particular state does. Indiana should have just removed all government control over marriage like Oklahoma is doing...nothing to overturn there leave it up to a religious contract...I am sure when the 14th amendment was added to the constitution they had homosexual marriage in their thoughts.
Sorry that you don't agree with the constitution, but it is our law of the land and states can not enact laws that violate the constitution.
Also the amendment still has to make it through the senate before going to the voters. With the change in language to the amendment it can't go to voters this year, and would have to be restored to previous language to do so. If kept as passed in the house, it can not go to a vote until 2016. It is doubtful it would go through as originally written seeing as how the vote to remove the ban on civil unions was 52-43 and the vote to pass without the ban on civil unions was 57-40. If they put the original language back in to get it to vote this year, the amendment may not pass the house as it was originally written.
Again. The 14th amendment was not used for homosexual marriage. Try as you might you will lose that argument. I do wonder what will be the next disgusting "couple" or "group" that will want recognition of their "marriage" under the 14th amendment? Human/Animal? Adult/Kid? Polygamy is on its way although that doesn't bother me at all...Maybe inanimate object/human!?

By a two-to-one margin, blacks reject the notion that homosexual rights compare with the civil rights struggles of the 1950s and '60s, according to a new poll commissioned by Robert Johnson, the founder of Black Entertainment Television.
The poll found that more blacks oppose redefining marriage and believe clergy are right to denounce homosexuality.
In all, 55 percent of blacks deny the idea “that equal rights for gays are the same as equal rights for African Americans.” Only 28 percent believe they are the same.
“It really saddens me and a lot of African-Americans, because definitely, there is no comparison to be made there,” a woman told John Ritchie of the Catholic group Tradition, Family, Property. “I just don't like the comparison, because to me there is absolutely none.”
Besides the majority of the black population (who experienced true discrimination historically), there are many sources out there about this false comparison.

What part of "No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; ... nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." is unclear to you?
Homosexuals are persons. They live in states. States have legal protections called marriage. States can not deny homosexual persons equal protections of (marriage) laws.

Uh no. The Supreme Court has ruled no such thing. You might want to gain at least a passing familiarity with the facts before posting such nonsense.
