in a case called Citizens for equal protection v. Bruning, it dealt with a federal 8th circuit court OVERRULING a lower district court decision that somehow there was no rational basis under the equal protection of the 14th amendment to deny gay marriage in an attempt to overturn the people's vote.The higher court reversed that decision to criticize the judge's fallacious ruling and explained exactly why there is rational basis. which means your case means nothing in the grand scheme of things

I'm not familiar with the case you're citing. I'm not a lawyer.
If it is "rational" to say that 5% - 10% of the U.S. population are not entitled to equal rights, than I believe it would also be "rational" for me to request that my U.S. Senators and House member pass a law that says that gays and lesbians only have to pay partial income taxes. If we are, for example, only 2/3 of a citizen, then we should pay only 2/3 the taxes of "regular" cititzens.
