Come on, you didn’t really think there were any lines?
The whole point is to eliminate marriage and the family. The shoes will go on dropping until there’s nothing left. Nothing but the Left. Because that is the whole point of the exercise.
The case is W. 49th St., LLC v. O’Neill. It’s the usual mess of New York City’s absurd tenant protections with an alternative lifestyle twist.
The decision is yesterday’s West 49th St., LLC v. O’Neill, decided by New York Civil Court Judge Karen May Bacdayan. Scott Anderson and Markyus O’Neill lived together in an apartment; Anderson was on the lease, and O’Neill was not. After Anderson died, O’Neill would have had the right to renew the lease if he were “a non-traditional family member,” but Anderson was married to Robert Romano. The apartment building company therefore argued that O’Neill was just a roommate, but the court concluded that there needed to be a hearing about whether Anderson, Romano, and O’Neill were actually in a polyamorous relationship:
As was repeatedly pointed out, there’s no reason to draw the line at two. If all that matters is love and everything else is a detail, why cavil at a number? Any number. It’s three now, but why not three thousand? Love is love, you know.
“In sum, the problem with Braschi and Obergefell is that they recognize only two-person relationships. Those decisions, while revolutionary, still adhered to the majoritarian, societal view that only two people can have a family-like relationship; that only people who are “committed” in a way defined by certain traditional factors qualify for protection from “one of the harshest decrees known to the law—eviction from one’s home.”
Those decisions, however, open the door for consideration of other relational constructs; and, perhaps, the time has arrived. As Justice John Roberts foretold in his Obergefell dissent:
“Although the majority randomly inserts the adjective ‘two’ in various places, it offers no reason at all why the two-person element of the core definition of marriage may be preserved while the man-woman element may not.
Since then we’ve eliminated the existence of the sexes. All that’s left is the detail of the number.
New York City’s eviction court – the venue of a landmark same-sex relationship decision long before Obergefell v Hodges – is now the source of a legal opinion that comes down clearly on the side of polyamorous unions.
The decision came in the case of West 49th St., LLC v. O’Neill, decided by New York Civil Court Judge Karen May Bacdayan, concluded that polyamorous relationships are entitled to the same sort of legal protection given to two-person relationships.
In June [2020], Somerville, Massachusetts, passed an ordinance allowing groups of three or more people who ‘consider themselves to be a family’ to be recognized as domestic partners. The neighboring town of Cambridge followed suit, passing a broader ordinance recognizing multi-partner relationships. The law has proceeded even more rapidly in recognizing that it is possible for a child to have more than two legal parents.”
“Why then,” posited the judge, “except for the very real possibility of implicit majoritarian animus, is the limitation of two persons inserted into the definition of a family-like relationship for the purposes of receiving the same protections from eviction accorded to legally formalized or blood relationships? Is ‘two’ a ‘code word’ for monogamy? Why does a person have to be committed to one other person in only certain prescribed ways in order to enjoy stability in housing after the departure of a loved one?”
What’s the counterargument? There isn’t one. If nothing is sacred, why should a number be?
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Once gay marriage was accepted, it was only a matter of time before polygamy was as well. After all, what if one is bi-? Shouldn’t that person get to have both a husband and a wife? Also kicks up another question: will that person’s wife also be the wife of that person’s husband, or is that person only the pivot of the ‘relationship’?
Thank you, Justice Kennedy!
Wellington says
Seconded. I actually argued this point to many after the Obergefell v. Hodges decision of June 2015. To wit, if one can use love and, in general, kissy/face, huggy/bear reasons for gay marriage, then the same can be done for polygamous or polyandrous relationships. And it is not enough, not nearly, to aver that multiple partners in marriage is verboten because of lack of consent precisely due to the fact that such consent is so very often readily given—as in Islamworld.
Open Pandora’s Box and thereafter watch out. I also find it interesting and telling that those standing up for gay marriage by those who support women’s rights don’t comprehend that there is a direct relationship between gay marriage and women’s rights. Allow the one, expect a descent with the other. So many don’t grasp this.

Did they all have Monkey Pox?
somehistory says
Yep, once one sinks into the mire, there is no bottom. Bring on the monkeypox.
If they would only leave the children out of all of this perversion. but, they won’t, as including the kids and perverting them early….the ones they allow to be born…is the main goal.
molzums call the rape of little infants and young girls “marriage,” so who is to stop the other perverts of non-mozlum extraction from doing the same? Clearly not any “judges” like this fool.
Wellington says
Yep, no bottom, somehistory. What a weird time—and I would argue a perverted time—we live in. Right is wrong (e.g., the traditional nuclear family with husband, wife and children is now considered, at best, limited in scope and, at worst, evidence of sheer ignorance and bigotry) and wrong is right (e.g., trans people are just as normal as everyone else). Madness, sheer madness.
somehistory says
agreed, Wellington.
In the TX law, the last one in the U.S. that was being enforced, and the perverts make the claim that **all they want** is to not be arrested for their *lifestyle.* was their first step. So, the law was found unconstitutional.
They fought and demanded : to be hired, rent homes, and even work in churches and brought out the ‘phobia’ word they made up.
then, it was they wanted *civil* unions so they could find out medical things, include others on their insurance plans, etc. They got that.
Then, it was they wanted to be able to adopt kids which they couldn’t have on their own, but found out that most places only gave kids to *married couples.* so, they insisted they should have the **right** to get married.
and along the way, some people said its “a slippery slope.” They knew all along that there was always another thing the perverts were going to demand.
there is no bottom…no low to which they will not go…to act out their perversion.
James Lincoln says
somehistory says,
“there is no bottom…no low to which they will not go…to act out their perversion.”
100% true.
They only stop after significant pushback – and even then just temporarily.
somehistory says
thank you, James.
and there is this:
“‘They Want Political Opponents Jailed’: Congressman on DOJ Investigating Foes of Children’s Trans Surgeries”
“The call to crack down on investigative journalists would target people like Matt Walsh of The Daily Wire, who said he and his team uncovered first account evidence that surgeons view transgender surgical interventions as lucrative financial ventures. Administering hormones gives the hospital thousands of dollars in profits per procedure, but the real money comes from amputations, the speaker said.”
““There are entire clinics where the entire clinic is supported just by their phalloplasties,” Taylor told receptive hospital administrators. According to a new report from Grant View Research, the world of transgender surgeries is set to become a $5 billion industry by 2030.”

Perversion harming the most vulnerable. They will stop at nothing.

And this:
“CDC Allocated $85 Million For Grants Requiring Schools To Start Student-Led Clubs Supporting LGBT Youth”
“To access that funding, a school must apply for the federal grant. Once a school is deemed eligible, the school can be awarded anywhere from $12,000 to $350,000 for the program.
For schools to be eligible for the grant, they must fulfill all of the required activities listed in the program guidance document and cannot opt-out of those requirements.
According to the document, one of the required activities that schools cannot opt out of requires the implementation of student-led clubs supporting LGBT youth, usually known as Gay-Straight Alliances.”
https://www.gopusa.com/cdc-allocated-85-million-for-grants-requiring-schools-to-start-student-led-clubs-supporting-lgbt-youth/
This sentence says it all:
“The CDC also says that schools must oppose beliefs that are against the LGBTQIA+ ideology.”

NY Judge Rules Polygamy On Same Level as Couple Relationships
……………………………………
I was afraid of this happening. Fools may think this will just apply to consensual “polyamory”, but it will mostly be used by Muslims to spread their vicious creed. Expect to find pedophilia and forced marriages in its wake.
Jim J says
That’s the first thing I thought of when reading about this elsewhere. Muslims will be having a field day over this ruling. Expect them to file a complaint to the SC.

Grimly likely, Jim.

This is Satanic, it is pure evil.
The book by Jonathan Cahn, “The Return of the Gods” will shed some light on why we are seeing what we are seeing. He was interviewed SkyWatchTV in 3 parts.

I will check out that interview, Milo. Thanks for the link.
somehistory says
thankyou, milo. very interesting discussions. It is all satan….he may appear as different ‘gods’ and he has many demon angels who influence people to do these things.
What he said seems to fit what is happening. Thankfully, there is One Who is Almighty and His Son is a Mighty God< Prince of Peace, Eternal Father.
milo minderbinder says
gravenimage & somehistory,
You’re welcome.
We are living in very troubling times and they are about to get much worse.
Jonathan Cahn spoke on the issue of abortion, which brought this passage to mind:
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you a prophet to the nations.” Jeremiah 1:5 (NASB95)
Think of the people who have helped change the world for the better, how many like them have been murdered in their mother’s womb?
somehistory says
Every life has worth. Jesus gave His so we**all** could have “life in abundance.” His enemies…satan, his demon angels and the humans he has taken on as children, are all on the side of death and destruction. Even to the elimination of poor little children.
The Psalmist wrote about God “seeing the embryo of me,” “all his parts were down in writing.” Written on the DNA strand.
I always pray that He remembers these tiny children and give them what was taken.
gravenimage says
Good exchange.
Hank says
There are many truths God reveals in the Bible. In this case the truth that God made marriage to be between a man and a woman is rejected by the Judge (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-5). And so the cycle in Romans 1 begins. Truth is rejected by unrepentant people. God gives them over to their sins and delusions. Cycle repeats with more of Gods truth and moral standards rejected, which results in more delusion, more perversion and so on. It concludes with the fall of a nation or Empire.
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient (Rom1:28)
And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: (2 Thessalonians 2:10-11)
Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. (Genesis 2:24)

Thank you for comments.
milo minderbinder says
oppps,
Thank you for the comments.
Walter Sieruk says
The Prophet and founder of Islam, Muhammad, did have many wives and all Muslim throughout history and even now in this twenty first century look to him and a great and perfect example of a model for them to emulate. Therefore, in many Islamic countries Muslim men have taken up to four wives.
Which this, it needs to be made clear that polygamy is not sanctioned by God. For example, God gave Adam one wife. Furthermore, in the New Testament Jesus taught “For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife…” Jesus said “wife.” Not “wives” Mathew 19:5. [K.J.V.] Likewise, in First Timothy 3:2. In instructs “A bishop must be blameless, the husband on one wife.” Here again it’s “one wife”
Nevertheless, there are some people who will act as apologists for polygamy by say the king David of Israel and then later his son, who became King Solomon of Israel did practice polygamy. Such people aren’t taking into account both the time and place. For the only reason that God did tolerate this tradition was not because it was right or that He approved of it. It was because this practice of having many wives was such an entrenched custom in the ancient Middle East that God allowed it for the above-mentioned Kings of Israel. This does not mean that this custom, of polygamy, was to keep on going in other times and places.
