All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to

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.


Which part of "No state shall make or enforce any law..." are you
having trouble with?

The 14th amendment is NOT about federal laws.


It's about equal protection. That's what it says. The states are not
allowing such protection. Which part of equal protection don't you
understand?

Striking down DOMA means that the states can decide for themselves
about marriage. That was the case in other situations, and that will
be the case here.
