Reaction to Recent Supreme Court Ruling on Same Sex Marriage

http://www.theguardian.com/…/officials-opting-out-of-all-ma…. So my people , what do you all make of this issue ? If anyone wants my opinion , I think that Rep. Ron Paul had the best idea concerning marriage lawhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=c18ct2TwmCw. But if the state were to decide it should be involved in such a matter , then my opinion would have been that they should simply issue civil unions , such as exist in France . But the Supreme Court has rendered it's decision , which is it's power to do , given it's judicial review authority http://constitution.laws.com/the-supreme-co…/judicial-review , http://law2.umkc.edu/…/proje…/ftrials/conlaw/judicialrev.htm. I suppose though that if I were a Supreme Court justice , I would not want to even grant this case certiorari  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certiorari#United_States , judging it to be too political in it's scope. But it is still my special particular obligation , as a budding paralegal , to abide by all set precedents , which the Supreme Court has the prestige to make. There will always be legal cases which we will respectively disagree with , rightly , or wrongly , in respects to the verdicts. The only powers which the President , and Congress respectively have to overturn a Supreme Court decision is to amend the constitution , such as how the 13th , and 14th amendments superseded the Dred Scott ruling , or the President can refuse to enforce it , as Andrew Jackson did , in response to Worcester v. Georgia http://www.georgiaencyclopedia.org/…/worcester-v-georgia-18…
