Yay!  Take THAT, jerkwads!  Especially the Mormon church.  I for one am GLAD you wasted so much money and made your position of intolerance crystal clear, only to have the law deemed unconstitutional!

This is really good news.

I hope the US Supreme Court has the testicular fortitude to deem this unconstitutional as well.

I have a Mormon friend who truly believes, because the Imperial Wizard (or whatever those whackos call their HMFIC) told them, that the church would be required to perform gay marriages inside of the temples if gay marriage were to be legalized. Unbelievable that they would believe that. He claims that is his only issue with it.

A little bit of faith is restored in humanity today.  :yay:

First off: YAY!  :crazy:

BTW: Speaking of the wonderful 14th Amendment which made this possible, Republicans want to change it.

Hurray for equality!

I went down to the celebration walk in San Diego to photograph for the newspaper, anyone care for a sneak peak?

 Also, it's funny how you go to one little gay rights rally and suddenly your family is questioning your sexuality. Sigh . . . FML.
When I was little, I prayed to God for a new bike.
But then I learned that God doesn't work that way.
So I stole a bike and prayed for forgiveness.

The ruling on this was quite lengthy (138 pages) and impressively written. It's truly worth a read.
