I’m a stickler for procedure, because I believe that constitutional rules and limitations are absolutely essential for our safety:  If you ignore them, even to do something that you deem good at the time, you’re establishing a precedent that can eventually be exploited to legitimize evil.

 

That’s why I think that even those who favor redefining marriage should have some silent qualms about just how the redefinition was accomplished.  (I feel the same way about Roe v. Wade on abortion, and about a number of other things, judicial and non-judicial.)
