An Attempt To Take Away The Will Of The People

An article I recently came across that discussed the opponents to Proposition 8 is filing a lawsuit against the recently passed California gay marriage ban. The California Supreme court has agreed to listen to the legal challenges to the recently passed constitution amendment. The claimants claim that the voters alone do not have the authority to vote on such a change to the state’s constitution.

When I heard about this claim by the claimants, I was shocked by the elitist mentality of the claimants that the citizens of California do not have an opinion and have the right to decide what is best for their state. At the end of the day though, it should not surprise many Americans that the liberal wayward California Supreme Court will overturn the will of the people and take away the FREEDOM of opinion by the citizens of the State of California. We have seen this played out before, but this is just the beginning of taking the people’s right to vote and decide what should be done in their state.
