"It was an incredible experience to hear a Supreme Court justice talk about how my marriage, my relationship, how John and I matter. How we deserve respect and dignity and I started to feel a lot more like a full, equal American at that moment.” - Jim Obergefell, the plaintiff in the landmark Supreme Court case on gay marriage, who is evidently under the impression that his dignity comes from the state and that respect is not earned but rather is the result of judicial fiat.

You already had dignity, sir, because you are a human being created by God, and anyone who truly knows that God already had respect for you and didn't need a bitterly divided 5-4 Supreme Court decision to tell us to respect you.

Sheesh.
