It is an inate right:

I've read many law briefs supporting the fact that marriage is a liberty, or it could fall under the pursuit of happiness. However you look at it, it is an inate right. Yes, the current law prevents them from exercising that right, however many people (maybe not in hicksville where you are) do believe that preventing it is wrong.

Marriage is held to be a fundamental (inate) right in the US, by the Supreme Court Loving -v- Virginia.
