The Supreme Court announced on Thursday that it will hear two high-profile cases in late April.
The high court will hear arguments on same-sex marriage on April 28 and those on a lethal injection case the next day, CNN reported on Thursday.
Earlier this year, the Court said it would hear cases on whether state bans on same-sex marriage are constitutional, granting cases from Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and Tennessee, according to NBC News.
The justices also halted the executions of three Oklahoma death-row inmates who are challenging the state’s practice of execution by lethal injection.
The Court will decide whether the state’s lethal cocktail violates the Eighth Amendment prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment.
How many on the christianist right wing are hoping this might be a case about lethal injection of gays?
Republicans will argue that as long as the condemned actually died, the execution wasn’t botched.
From the title of this article, you can understand how the morally superior christianisty right might be (excitedly) confused and actually think that gays who dare to marry will be executed. But, in the end every life matters and is precious … well, except, you know, those who aren’t like us.
