CA court will hear marriage briefs

"Supporters on both sides have deluged the California Supreme Court with dozens of briefs. The court has agreed to hear the case on March 5, extremely quickly by judicial standards, and it has three months after oral arguments to rule."

The Constitution is the basis of authority for our courts. If courts start to declare parts of our Constitution unconstitutional we are set up for a tyranny of the courts.
California can undo its amended Constitution with another election. If the courts do the work of the people, then the people don't matter. We lose control of our Constitution and our government.
And if the original amendment was unconstitutional in the first place?
If a bill is introduced on the ballot, the people vote on it.

"What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night.
It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime.
It is the little shadow which runs across the grass
and loses itself in the sunset.
- Crowfoot, Blackfoot warrior and orator
Dog fighting is cruelty, which is a human activity and a human illness.
It's not the dog's fault.
All dogs need to be evaluated as individuals."
