BOOM! Texas Republican Party Declares Homosexuality An ‘Abnormal Lifestyle,’ Calls On SCOTUS To Overturn…

(Republican Party News) – The Supreme Court has been sticking it to liberals over the course of the last week.

The nation’s highest court ruled that the Constitution allows individuals to carry a gun to protect themselves and then the court really went for the left’s jugular when they overturned Roe v Wade in a monumental decision on Friday.

However, the SCOTUS’ work in reversing the culture war may have just started.

Just days before the court made these rulings, the Texas Republican Party updated its platform to call for the nullification of the 2015 decision that made same-sex marriage legal across the country.

“We believe the Obergefell v. Hodges decision, overturning the Texas law prohibiting same-sex marriage in Texas, has no basis in the Constitution and should be nullified, the document adopted by Texas Republicans at last weekend’s convention said.

The document went further.

“Homosexuality is an abnormal lifestyle choice,” it said. “We believe there should be no granting of special legal entitlements or creation of special status for homosexual behavior, regardless of state of origin, and we oppose any criminal or civil penalties against those who oppose homosexuality out of faith, conviction, or belief in traditional values. No one should be granted special legal status based on their LGBTQ+ identification.”

They weren’t done. The document went on to firmly state the party’s views on gender identity.

“We oppose all efforts to validate transgender identity. For the purpose of attempting to affirm a person age 21 or under if their perception is inconsistent with their biological sex, no medical practitioner or provider may engage in the following practices: Intervene in any way to prevent natural progression of puberty. Administer or provide opposite sex hormones. Perform any surgery on healthy body parts of the underage person.”

The Texas GOP also asserted that anyone who isn’t happy with the gender they were born with can use their own money to pay for whatever medical procedures they wish to have done. It should not be the burden of tax payers.

“We oppose the use of taxpayer funds for any type of medical gender dysphoria treatments or sex change operations and/or treatments. This includes but is not limited to military personnel as well as inmates in federal, state, or local prisons or jails. Inmates must be housed according to their biological sex. No Federal, state, insurance, or probate monies may be allocated for the use of such treatment.”

Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas made an appearance at the GOP’s convention and slammed Disney for featuring a same-sex kiss in its new movie “Lightyear,” which crashed and burned at the box office.

“Like, just leave the kids alone,” Cruz said, according to The Hill. “Consenting adults, you can do what you want to do, but this culture assault is driven by radical leftists who want to tear down America.”

The Texas GOP aren’t the only ones who believe the Supreme Court should take another look at the 2015 ruling on same-sex marriage.

Newsweek reported, Justice Clarence Thomas brought up the topic in a concurring opinion to Friday’s decision that overturned Roe v Wade.

Thomas wrote that the Supreme Court “should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents, including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell.”

Griswold v. Connecticut was a 1965 court ruling that claimed that married couples have a right to buy and use contraception without the government getting in the way. The 2003 ruling of Lawrence v. Texas ruled that penalties for sodomy or private sex acts between consenting adults are unconstitutional.

“We have a duty to ‘correct the error’ established in those precedents,” Thomas wrote.

“After overruling these demonstrably erroneous decisions, the question would remain whether other constitutional provisions guarantee the myriad rights that our substantive due process cases have generated,” he wrote.

Thomas dissented in both the Lawrence and Obergefell rulings and has spoken out on the same-sex marriage ruling before.

“It would be one thing if recognition for same-sex marriage had been debated and adopted through the democratic process, with the people deciding not to provide statutory protections for religious liberty under state law,” Thomas wrote in a 2020 opinion cited by Newsweek. “But it is quite another when the Court forces that choice upon society through its creation of atextual constitutional rights and its ungenerous interpretation of the Free Exercise Clause, leaving those with religious objections in the lurch.”

He said that “the Court has created a problem that only it can fix. Until then, Obergefell will continue to have ‘ruinous consequences for religious liberty.’”

The culture war made a massive shift this last week and it looks like the tide might continue to change. We can only hope that other justices sitting on the Supreme Court agree with Thomas.

  1. Texas has done things Right . There’s No Pride in being GAY ! And therefore the SCOTUS needs to OVERTURN GAY MARRIAGE before they
    exit on Summer Recess. 🤗🤗🤗🤗

  2. I agree 100%, never should have allowed same sex marriages, it would have saved a lot of problems.
    Perversion should be behind closed doors

    • Mr. Pitts, I agree with you completely. When I was growing up you were told about these people and to stay away from them, but they weren’t as blatant as they are now. I have friends and neighbors that are gay, and they are horrified at the actions they are seeing and how far it’s going. I thank God for Texas and their willingness to stand up. GOD BLESS TEXAS!

  3. Truth is the only basis for a healthy nation (or lifestyle for that matter) to be built on. Once you start believing and acting on lies your foundation gets weaker until it implodes, a gradual downward trend. It’s time we get real…

  4. From a party that always touts their defense of freedom TX Republicans show an awful lot of interest in getting into people’s lives to what? Set them straight? True, the Constitution doesn’t mention abortion, gay marriage or any of the other issues Justice Thomas and TX right wingers like to fulminate about but nor does it forbid any of those things. Where in the Constitution does it imply it’s the job of the state to administer lifestyle laws to suit the uneducated beliefs of populist right wingers? What ever happened to minding your own business? As to gay marriage, what you populists can’t do is show how a gay couple getting married harms you. Offends, perhaps but offense isn’t necessarily harm. In this case it’s not. Your stance simply shows you to be a bunch of hypocritical control freaks who want to dictate how people live and think. What’s next? some kind of “big brother” touting right wing drivel while taking a cue right from the Communist playbook by turning neighbors against neighbors? Oh, sorry, I forgot TX already did that.

    • The issue is NOT gays getting married sir – it’s about how there shouldn’t be ANY special legal entitlements or creation of special status. Just because I oppose to making a cake for them because of my spiritual beliefs shouldn’t bring down prosecution on me and my business! They can do and live whatever way the devil tells them to – they’ll answer to God Almighty for that – assuredly! It’s not harming me at all! And to the point of us being ‘hypocritical control freaks’ I think that can be pinned on the enforcers of the vax mandates, i.e. the Obiden Nazi regime 2.0, “GET THE VAX OR LOSE YOUR LIVELIHOOD”! All the while NONE of the elitist, (even Dr. Fakey according to a whistleblower on him), didn’t get the jab. You know why? Because they know what’s in it!!!!!
      God is bringing down judgement on the earth and returning this nation back to its roots according to the constitution as written. Slowly and assuredly every ruling that is unjust in His site is gonna get overturned.

  5. Steven Montgomery: LGBT is nothing but a bunch of homosexuals demanding that normal people must cater to the adult sexual activities of adults towards children. LGBT’s mission statement includes as it’s main mission is to get non homosexuals’ children for LGBT adult sexual activity. Our public schools paid for by all taxpayers are being told by LGBT that schools must let LGBT teach children as young as five in schools and 3 and 4 year olds in library story hours about sex. Our children only have a short period to have their innocence and lgbt is out in everyone faces going after kids because LGBT can’t grow itself having children, they need other people’s children to grow LGBT’s future needs. It is not the job for parents and schools to have to offer up their children for the sexual needs of adults. The farce about love including adult sex has to be included in love does and never has been meant as the law for children. Children are to be protected from perversion in any form not handed over to any perversion of plain old fashioned perverts. If your think this has any thing to do with big brother, your are wrong or you want it to be about big brother. It is about children, their innocence about sex as they go through the various stages of life and the early stages of life don’t include an education in adult concepts or ideas of adult sex including children. Your “love” definition for children may be your LGBT’s goal but LGBT’s goal for parent’s children is not the goal of parent’s for their children . LGBT stepped over the line of decency, you involved children in your perversion and that’s a no no. LGBT are the people using the communist playbook of organizing threats to gain the LGBT agenda and that’s a little bit more than offensive. That’s a serious threat to our children and in the long run to our country. It’s the job of the state and federal govts to protect our children from perversion and unfortunately and to LGBT’s favor, our govt officials have forgotten that their job of protecting our children from any kind of adult sexual crap is number no. Govt is supposed to be on parent’s side when it comes to children not on the side of various weird people’s agendas towards children, period.
