___To make this decision the five Justices appealed to the 14th Amendment while ignoring the 10th Amendment. This is bizarre since the 10th was a part of the original Bill of Rights and the 14th was ratified in 1868 to protect the rights of freed slaves! Note that the 14th is a favorite of "legislators from the bench" for birthright citizenship, legalizing abortion, overturning the vote of Florida, etc. Two of the five Justices had performed same-sex marriages and should have recused themselves.
___In the 1800s, Wisconsin refused to honor the illegal Dred Scott (blacks are not human) decision. Current-day legal authorities should follow this precedent!
