Like you said......who is right / who is wrong?

Polygamists will use the SCOTUS decision to argue in court for their legal right to marry. Aren't you also denying those who believe in plural marriage their rights to due process and equal protection under the law? Why should marriage be confined to two people? Whether those arguments succeed is an entirely different matter.
As for marrying those underage, such proponents have a much tougher argument, although they'll likely point to differences in state laws as to marital age as showing how "arbitrary" laws are prohibiting marriage to minors. But I would say their chances aren't very good.
