Going against the legal tide that has now established a very good legal precedent with regard to the right to marry, an activist federal judge by the name of Martin Feldman felt the urge to go against that precedent and all other law that clearly establishes the right to marry and declared Louisiana's ban on gay marriage constitutional, fine and dandy ya'll!The country critter pretending to be a judge says that the people of Louisiana have a right to vote in anything they want (that upholds the conservative agenda of course, do you think this judge will uphold a voter approved ban on school prayer?). He also states that the state has a clear interest in banning gay marriage (yup pussy meets dick and out pops a baby therefore no gay marriage argument!):
This Court is persuaded that Louisiana has a legitimate interest…whether obsolete in the opinion of some, or not, in the opinion of others…in linking children to an intact family formed by their two biological parents, as specifically underscored by Justice Kennedy in Windsor.Uh, no. Kennedy also said other things in that case regarding gay marriage itself in that there is no government interest (at least at the federal level) to only recognize traditional marriage and hence the Defense of Marriage Act by Congress was ruled unconstitutional. He also stated that as much as marriage is important to breeding heterosexuals it is also important to other Americans who cannot or will not breed.
In any case we are to expect these rogue court rulings since we have gay marriage lawsuits in all the states that gay marriage is banned, so it is a given that you will have a few handful of rulings like this from district and appeals courts.
Be prepared for more garbage rulings like this:
