As we all know why it was illegalised in the first place, surely - in the Land of the Free, a system in which everything not explicitly forbidden is permitted - the correct terminology to use here would not be legalisation, but disillegalisation?
There are probably more Democrats against marriage equality than libertarians. Like Obama, until it became an election issue.
I was just replying to Engineer. Democrats against marriage equality are not nearly as catastrophically hypocritical as libertarians against it, because they donât necessarily start from the premise that the government should stay out of our personal lives.
âMerelyâ doesnât seem like the word to me. âUnnecessarily aggressivelyâ and âin violation of the 10th amendment of the US constitutionâ would both make sense to me instead.
The fact remains, that the LAW is what it is. The law needs to be changed. You canât expect government not to enforce the laws that are on the books. Thatâs what government does. If it didnât, it wouldnât be government, it would be anarchy. Change the laws.
That argument would be so solid. If only there werenât so many other laws that werenât enforced.
