Same-Sex Marriage Legal Nationwide, Supreme Court Rules http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...rraige-legal-nationwide-supreme-court-n375551
Shocking that it was a 5-4 decision. Roberts' status as Chief Asshole is solidified. His dissent is idiotic. But yay Kennedy!!!
Sly Poker Dog, if I meet the right woman, you can officiate. Except that I am a lifelong free love advocate... But it's about equality. And recognition. And choices. Happy Pride, Kingspeed and everyone else! In high school (yeah, I know, back when dinosaurs walked the earth, right?) I refused to say the flag salute because I said that the "nation" did not have "liberty and justice for all". A small step in that direction was taken today.
http://thescoopblog.dallasnews.com/...-as-supreme-court-oks-same-sex-marriage.html/ Meet the first legally married gay couple in Dallas. Two octogenarians after more than 50 years together. They did not get a senior discount on their marriage license, but said it was the best $90 they ever spent.
If there was a love button, and a I-want-to-hug-the-shit-out-of-you button, I'd do it. I am SOOOOOO happy that this has finally happened. It's LONG LONG LONG overdue, and I celebrate it with such glee! I wrote on my FB: HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MARRIAGE EQUALITY!
I wonder if that one couple is going to go through with their plans to get divorced. They threatened to if/when it was legalized.
I was trying to think of funny things to say but fuck it. It is about time. I truly don't recall meeting someone under 40 in the last few years who was against this.
im happy for everyone that cares about this, seems like its been a long time coming. the people still clinging to the bible over this are twisted weirdos, and i mean that of every religion that gives a shit for some strange reason.
great! This country just got better and we all gained more freedom. Now I'd like to see the govt get out of the marriage game altogether.
This is so long overdue..now proof that evolution exists! I hope a lot of orphans find homes that might not have before! Shout out to Kingspeed and a group hug to everyone!
Excellent development. With this and the Court's decision on Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs v. Inclusive Communities Project (an extremely under-reported case amid the hoopla around the same sex marriage and ACA cases), this has been one of the most positive and significant weeks in US civil rights history.
