Loving interprets the US constitution. Hawaii's right to gay marriage is derived from their state constitution. Loving does not interpret Hawaiis state constitution.
I have never said a peep about a state constitution. We are talking about if the US constitution can be used to give gays the right to marry each other.
I think if you want to use the US constitution, you will need to make a due process/fundamental rights argument. However, when you do, you cannot come up with an argument that cannot also be used to support polygamy.
