Texas AG Says ‘It’s Wrong To Subject People Of Faith To Abuse From Same-Sex Marriage’
No sooner had the Supreme Court’s ruling on same-sex marriage been handed down yesterday than Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton began looking for a camera and microphone so he could blather on about his feelings on the matter. Here’s part of what this incredibly ignorant jackass had to say:
Today’s ruling by five Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court marks a radical departure from countless generations of societal law and tradition. The impact of this opinion on our society and the familial fabric of our nation will be profound. Far from a victory for anyone, this is instead a dilution of marriage as a societal institution.
How exactly does the fact that people who love one another will now be allowed to marry affect Mr. Paxton in the first place? It does nothing to his own marriage. Nor does it in any way, shape, or form have an impact on the office of Texas AG.

Religion can “excuse all sorts of eccetricity. Genocide, for example” (Sir Terry Pratchett, Thief of Time). In comparison, not doing one’s job, is easy.

So long as the Supreme Court is not forcing churches to marry gays, I don’t know how this is an infringement on anything.
