The complaint is basically like saying black judges should preside over cases of racial discrimination. It just illustrates how clueless the prop 8 backers are.

So it would be okay for someone who is a heterosexual to decide, because they wouldn’t be bias either? Either they would be for same-sex marriage or against it, so this claim is beyond ridiculous.

@ Frank: This is exactly why these same people want the video record of the trial to stay sealed. They look and sound like fools.

The arguments against same sex marriage contained in the Prop 8 trial and advanced by the proponents
of Prop 8 are a laughing stock. The defenders have no case and they know it. It is a great shame

I agree with David. Most couples who had been in long-term relationship when marriage became available in California (as Walker was) had ample time to decide if getting married was something they wanted to do before Prop 8 became law. Walker and his partner chose not to marry.

Judge Walker could have gotten married when the other 18,000 gay couples in California had married. So this entire argument is invalid. They lost the case because they didn’t present ANY evidence that same-sex marriage would harm opposite-sex marriages or society.
