A Connecticut Supreme Court justice implied Clarence Thomas was hypocritical in calling for a reconsideration of rulings ensuring legal rights for gay people, noting a ruling that ultimately allowed Thomas to marry a white woman, Ginni Thomas, in Virginia
In that, Thomas wrote,"Because any substantive due process decision is 'demonstrably erroneous' ... we have a duty to 'correct the error' established in those precedents.'"A Supreme Court spokeswoman did not immediately respond to a request for Thomas to comment on McDonald's post.
"The suggestion of petitioners and their amici that antimiscegenation laws are akin to laws defining marriage as between one man and one woman is both offensive and inaccurate," Thomas wrote in a footnote in his dissent. "Laws defining marriage as between one man and one woman do not share this sordid history," Thomas added."The traditional definition of marriage has prevailed in every society that has recognized marriage throughout history."
