Mark Pettingill has won TWO Supreme Court rulings affirming same-sex marriage.
Premier Burt talks about an appeal…..

The Premier is wasting tax payer dollars on a matter that should be accepted. He will only lose the appeal. He is out of touch.
TRAGIC. Besides discriminating against a minority, he is spending $$$ on denying equality.

Wow, the same government fighting SSM seems to support Heroes Day “weekend”, a carnival of drinking and other forms of excess on so many levels.

The PLP seem to want to placate their “church” base, to be seen fighting SSM, but at the same time, so many of those same supporters are enjoying the “carnal delights” of this weekend.

I am so confused. Just like racism is optional for the PLP, so is a “religious” lifestyle.

The judge in the US said that because the “alleged” bribery took place in Bermuda, the lawsuit should not have been brought in the USA.
It was a judgment about jurisdiction, nothing more.
It was certainly not a determination of innocence.

Are you saying the Premier can’t be bothered to be involved in this because he is “too busy”?
Doing WHAT exactly?
Getting BS mickey mouse mou’s?
He is the Premier amd Finance Minister. Shouldn’t he be involved in spending millions of taxpayer dollars on a lawsuit designed to reduce human rights!?
If the job is too big for him he should call an election.

I find that funny coming from a former govt party that spent over 2 million dollars on a witch hunt that didn’t amount to anything. How quickly they forget.

I do think that as far as the Premier goes, it’s not an issue that weighs heavily on his mind as he’s focused primarily on issues with the economy.

As far as using more and more taxpayer dollars, well yeah. If you support marriage equality then you’re going to be ticked off at this. If you oppose it, do you reach a point where you say, man this isn’t worth the time and money, or do you say that this absolutely must go as far as it can, whatever it takes?

Does/Can PM and its allies take over the legal case? or is it moot at this point in time?
