So you would like to overturn the constitution and Bill of Rights??

It's important to remember that there is a reason for the way things
are.

These two cases have nothing to do with any such action. A lot of
"reasons the way things are" have to do with antiquated views and
fear. That argument doesn't stand for very long.

Actually the decision overturning DOMA may end up citing the 9th and
10th amendment.

SCOTUS tea leaves are hard to read...

Maybe, but it seems more likely it'll be 14:

Amendment XIV

Section 1.

All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to
the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the
state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law
which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life,
liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any
person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

The issue with DOMA is not the state making a law that infringes on
the right of a citizen, it is the state writing a law that gives the
citizen more rights and the federal government taking that right away.

It's denying rights on a FEDERAL level.. DOMA IS A FEDERAL LAW. Equal
Protection under the law. That's being denied. D'oh.

That is a 10th amendment issue.

I suppose someone might try to apply the 14th amendment like they do
in the drug war.
The federal government says a state can not deny you the right to rot
in a federal prison for having a state sanctioned medical marijuana
joint.

Come on. Don't stretch too much, you'll hurt yourself.
