NBCOUT “Prody claimed marriage is ‘a state issue, not a federal issue.’” I thought Democracies stood for the separation of church & state, but these individuals would rather live in a Theocracy. If you don’t want to provide equality of marriage between citizens, it is not just.

Kagey_Mays NBCOUT Nope.

NBCOUT Dear Tennessee, I hope your legal defense fund is flush with cash because you’re about to be sued by HRC, LambdaLegal NCLRights ACLU and others, and you won’t just be paying your own legal fees but theirs as well. Obergefell Windsor StillGoodLaw SomeoneFlunkedLawSchool

NBCOUT Hopefully, they will succeed and other states join in and maybe the entire country will repeal that awful, vile same-sex marriages in the United States. This country is 'cursed' because of disobedience to our Creator, with allowing same-sex marriages.

NBCOUT Get government out of marriage.

NBCOUT The GOP Dictatorship hard at work

NBCOUT No love is so great, as pure Christian hate.

NBCOUT What I don't get is what a bunch of ppl I don't know, & probably never will, do with their lives has to do with me? Or anyone other than them, for that matter. Marry a crocagator for all I care; it's got nothing to do with me. I'll stick with girls. MYOB; it doesn't concern you.

BoostedOnix NBCOUT Yeah tell us again how Democrats are “too extreme” and out of step with the majority of Americans to be in power.

NBCOUT Cmon guys. Imagine how miserable you’d be if you lived your whole life knowing the god you loved so much hated you and was going to tear apart your very soul if other people did things like ... make their own decisions. Now that’s a god worth worshipping

BMRealLifestyl1 NBCOUT Hey if they want to bump weenies that’s their business

NBCOUT NOPE

NBCOUT It’s the Bible Belt. A country representing “ In God we trust” to the world can’t approve of homosexuality when the book and or religion confirms the practice as an eternal hell offense. More like “ In cash we trust”

NBCOUT The Evangelicals who have tied themselves to TraitorTrump will be remembered in history for their role in this pathetic saga

NBCOUT God bless you for the ban!

NBCOUT Neanderthal Warning! The King Canute approach. SLOW Learners.

NBCOUT “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”

NBCOUT How about, if they are going to attempt to force feed their people their religious beliefs in laws, hold the same people accountable for existing laws, and put the guilty child molesters, and sexual assault priests in jail and stop the cover ups. Hypocrtes

NBCOUT Go Tennessee. GOD didn’t make Adam and Steve. Nope. GOD made Adam🕵️‍♂️and Eve👩🏻‍💼. Go Tennessee 👍👍👌👍👍

kenm77 NBCOUT As a libertarian, I'm disgusted on how dems and repubs shred the constitution for their own parties agendas. It seems to be getting worse the more polarized tbey get. Two party system is archaic and broke.

NBCOUT Embarrassing. Everytime I think this state has turned a corner, something like this happens.

NBCOUT Proverbs chapter 11, verse 9: 'He that troubles his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.'

NBCOUT Why? They are not endangering anyone.

NBCOUT Does trump have enough bigots as SCOTUS yet?

NBCOUT We all saw this coming as soon as Kavanaugh was appointed.

NBCOUT I don't get it. Why don't the Republicans want gay people to be as miserable as the rest of us? Also, if you're so against gay marriage, don't get gay married.

NBCOUT Republicans won't be happy until they turn the clock back to the 1700s

NBCOUT How noble, to go out of your way to make life more difficult for others whose personal choices have absolutely no effect on your own existence. Way to lead our diverse nation into the future, Tennessee.

NBCOUT 😡😡

NBCOUT Hoever, Tennessee still allows intra familial inbreeding and marriage if applicable, with Church blessings, Baptist etc💕 MentalHealthAm SenateGOP HouseGOP washingtonpost foxandfriends kukluxklanant

NBCOUT & So It begins, again

NBCOUT I was planning to visit Nashville this summer. I’m going to cancel.

NBCOUT What a bunch of narrow minded homophobic assholes. Why can’t some of these states accept a person’s choice?

NBCOUT ....................AH..........The 'Sanctity of Marriage'............Between a Man and a Woman...........then another Woman.................and another Woman.............slightly interrupted by a Porn Star (another one)

NBCOUT Great guy

NBCOUT Liberals turned back the clock when they legalized gay marriage. It existed in pagan times.

NBCOUT No different than the left attacking GUN RIGHTS...each side has their IDIOTS that refuse to progress huh

NBCOUT What world do they live in, absolutely nuts.

NBCOUT Just let people live for crying out loud. Or hell, lets just prohibit all state and church sanctioned marriage. It's not as if it means a damn thing.

NBCOUT I'm Republican, and I don't care who married who. Its each person for themselves. Residents will just go to other states and get married.

NBCOUT Christian Fascist on the march again.

NBCOUT What a waste of time and taxpayer money. It will immediately be struck down as unconstitutional and they know it.

NBCOUT Haters gonna hate. Backwards hicks in Tennessee. And racists. And homophobes.

NBCOUT Total idiots

NBCOUT CompleteDouchBag

NBCOUT Why is it always republicans?

Civil rights group seeks action after strip search claimsALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — A civil rights group representing families of four 12-year-old girls who claim they were strip searched for drugs in school is demanding an apology and other measures from an upstate New York school district. The NAACP Legal Defense Fund sent a letter to the Binghamton City School District on Thursday. It says actions by a middle school principal and nurse on Jan. 15 violated the constitutional rights of the girls, who are black. The district has said the girls had a medical evaluation but weren't strip searched. It has hired a law firm to investigate independently. And they found NOTHING!! They humiliated those teen girls for laughing... this is ridiculous!! “4 girls claim they were strip searched during school search, NAACP represents parents against district. District says they did not, hires lawyer for independent review.” Yeah. I'll give the the presumption of innocence.
