A federal appeals court ruled Friday that Oklahoma must allow gay couples to wed, prompting a fast, angry response from leaders of a state that has vehemently fought policy changes brought on from outside its borders.

Conks, angry??? Nooooooooo!!!!

A three-judge panel of the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver upheld a federal judge's ruling striking down Oklahoma's gay marriage ban, which had been approved by more than 75 percent of voters in 2004. Friday's decision marks the second time the federal appeals court has found the U.S. Constitution protects same-sex marriage.

The court put its 2-1 ruling on hold pending an appeal, meaning same-sex couples won't be allowed to marry in Oklahoma for now.

"Today's ruling is another instance of federal courts ignoring the will of the people and trampling on the right of states to govern themselves," Gov. Mary Fallin said. "In this case, two judges have acted to overturn a law supported by Oklahomans."

She said she hoped the decision was overturned and pledged to "fight back against our federal government when it seeks to ignore or change laws written and supported by Oklahomans."

Oklahoma has made a habit in recent years of battling federal laws and policies, with the state suing over health care reform, Environmental Protection Agency requirements and the Dodd-Frank financial reform law. The state last year also refused to process benefits for same-sex couples in the National Guard, instead ordering that those workers' benefits be processed at federal facilities.

I don't know why you guys keep posting this stuff as though it is news. Clearly, the Federal Judiciary has decided to cram acceptance of something so perverse as homosexual marriage down the throats of the People whether they like it or not. It's one more reminder that the Judiciary has become, as Thomas Jefferson predicted, a despotic branch. But it's not new. They do this all the time.

The judiciary exists to protect the minority. Just because the majority of Oklahomans don't support gay marriage, it doesn't mean their opinion should be allowed to compromise the rights of minority groups.

You're right John. Allowing anyone to be married is a travesty. Next, these gays will want social security! The right to vote! Equal pay! KHAKI SLACKS!!!!!
