Awesome! God seeing all those happy people is making me tear up. I can't understand how anyone could be indifferent to those faces.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
It's great news!
whoo hoo
Yay! Go CA judicial system!
A quote from the decision:
Proposition 8 fails to advance any rational basis in singling out gay men and lesbians for denial of a marriage license. Indeed the evidence shows Proposition 8 does nothing more than enshrine in the California constitution the notion that opposite sex couples are superior to same sex couples.
more:
Plaintiffs do not seek recognition of a new right. To characterize plaintiffs’ objective as "the right to same-sex marriage" would suggest that plaintiffs seek something different from what opposite-sex couples across the state enjoy —— namely, marriage. Rather, plaintiffs ask California to recognize their relationships for what they are: marriages.
I don't know why I thought I could be the one breaking that news here.
Apparently, the news broke Twitter.
Any news on if there is a stay on same sex marriages during the appeal?
javachik broke the news on Facebook. Hee.
Eyes rolling forever after this quote from the CNN article from the Concerned Women for America: "So-called 'same-sex' marriage is counterfeit marriage. Marriage is, and has always been, between a man and a woman. We know that it's in the best interest of children to be raised with a mother and a father. To use children as guinea pigs in radical San Francisco-style social experimentation is deplorable."
So many keywords to elicit a negative response from rightwingers there!
