Alabama weighs eliminating all marriage licenses

[Tywysog Cymru]

I'm all for it, but I really don't want a Southern state to be the face of resistance to same-sex marriage.

Alabama Republicans Kill Bid To Scrap Marriage Licenses

Are Statists gonna state?

“We need to see what the Supreme Court says,” [Alabama state Rep. Mike Ball] added. “Then we’ll know what the recognized law of the land is and then we’ll go from there.”

Yep. Statists gonna state.

P.S.: Fuck Mike Ball and the Supreme Court he wants to ride in on. For ages, "recognized" law was customary "old and good" law - and people didn't need nine black-robed demigods to tell them what it was. That didn't happen until people like Mike Ball and Supreme court "justices" got their paws on it and turned the law into something like the bastard offspring of M.C. Escher and Rube Goldberg ...

I sure hope people are saving their genealogical histories in other forms since things like marriage license records maintain family lineage and name changes. Never forget that removing paper records allow for the disappearance and/or rewriting of history.

And never forget that removing paper records allows for more personal privacy. I remember as a boy that one could legally change one's name simply by declaring your name to be different. You could also start a new life in another state with that new name and not have to worry about some pesky "arrest records" from your youth back "home". I don't think too many people got away with murder that way (I'm sure there were some) but it did allow people to get a "second chance" to start their life over. Now due to the wonderful computerized records kept on everyone NO ONE gets a break. Sorry, I prefer the older ways. Big brother doesn't need power because it is ALWAYS abused...
