Yeah, I just got the ruling a few minutes ago. It's pretty damn awesome. Plus, Houston pride is this weekend so the festivities should be extra celebratory because of this.
Next is the ruling on Prop 8 in California. Even if they don't rule it unconstitutional, I really don't see it lasting that long. The Mormons had to use a lot of their resouces to get that passed several years ago and public opinion has shifted a lot since then. If another vote were held today, I don't think Prop 8 would pass in California. If it's struck down, depending on the exact wording used in the ruling, it could open the floodgates for same sex marriage acroyear or soss the nation. If the court rules against us, it could halt the momentum same sex marriage has had over the past few years.
