This is about prop 8. And I think any hesitation is good.

On several occasions, Kennedy and other justices said they were wary of ruling broadly in a way that would make gay marriage legal nationwide.

Again..it should be decided in a majority vote by the people. They voted against it so it doesn't make sense for the courts to overturn the will of the people.
It's like rolling dice. One court yes, another court no, when all the time the people have decided.

A majority of the people in the South once supported slavery, and supported school, restaurant and restroom segregation.

Now that is silly, a majority in the nation did the same thing, now the year is 2013, , and I do not recall any votes on the slavery issue. And we do not have a topic called slavery.
And marriage is not a civil rights issue.

Marrage has nothing to do with civil rights, no one is prevented from getting married. As the the good justice, ask today, when did marrage become unconstitutional. What the gays want here is to change the dictionary.
