"Our national media refuses to report that even the Supreme Court did not say marriage was a human right in all cases nor did it say that the heterosexual definition violated anyone's right or that the heterosexual definition of marriage was unconstitutional"

About this Quote

This quote by Stockwell Day is describing the Supreme Court's decision on same-sex marital relationship in the United States. The Supreme Court did not declare that marital relationship was a human right in all cases, nor did it say that the heterosexual meaning of marital relationship violated anybody's rights or was unconstitutional. However, the national media has actually chosen to disregard this fact and instead focus on the Court's decision to legalize same-sex marital relationship. This quote is a suggestion that the media ought to be more responsible in its reporting and should not ignore truths that do not fit its narrative. It is likewise a suggestion that the Supreme Court's decision must be respected and that the heterosexual meaning of marriage should not be viewed as unconstitutional or as breaking anybody's rights.
