So, if the majority of people, voted that black people are second-class citizens, and a judge who dissented in an appeal that agreed with the majority of the voters, would you also call for her resignation, and condemn that judge; Thereby showing your faith, and support, of the law that was voted on by a simple majority of voters?
See, you guys need to realize something that is VERY important. The United States of America, is NOT a Democracy, and it never has been. You cannot vote away someone's basic, inherent rights, including the right to the pursuit of happiness. Just because a majority of people voted to ban Gay Marriage, does not mean that the majority, or indeed, the ban itself, carries any weight insofar as the Constitution, or he basis that it was founded on.
If a majority of voters enacted a law, that banned ALL firearms, within a state, does that make the law legal? does that make the law right? Does the majority now have the power to vote away rights, just because a majority of people voted on it?
Who is to say it will end with gay marriage. What's next, the majority of voters within a state, enacting a bill that names Christianity the official religion of a state, or a bill/law that makes it illegal to not attend temple?
The people who wrote the U.S. constitution, and wrote/helped write the constitutions of the states thereafter, were people who wanted a system of government that was ruled by the Law, and executed by the people chosen under the law, to exercise on behalf of the people. And, it was such people, who wanted a nation, united under one roof, that was built on the foundation of personal, and group-liberties, that could never be willed away by any one person, and by any group of people.
It took a king, in the late-18th century, and his government's majority, to force a colonial nation into open revolt against corruption, and tyranny. It took a Tyrant, and the majority of one political body, to drive a nation into genocide, and the near extermination of groups of minorities who had little-to-no voice within that government.
The Jews were not the only ones who was exterminated en masse, during the '30s, and '40s. The LGBT peoples, and gypsies, and mentally handicapped, was also exterminated by the millions. Not only by Germany, but by Soviet Russia. Majority-voters in the U.S. may not be rounding us up into death camps, but that doesn't mean that they are innocent and free from blame. The road to hell, starts with voters and fools, and ends with tyrants and traitors.
