Federal judge may have legalized same sex marriage in Utah.

RE: Federal judge may have legalized same sex marriage in Utah.
Maybe they should read....or have someone read to them...the decision in Romer v Evans.

The majority cannot simply "vote" to take away rights of a minority.

Quote:We must conclude that Amendment 2 classifies homosexuals not to further a proper legislative end but to make them unequal to everyone else. This Colorado cannot do. A State cannot so deem a class of persons a stranger to its laws. Amendment 2 violates the Equal Protection Clause, and the judgment of the Supreme Court of Colorado is affirmed.

It is so ordered.

This was in Colorado....not so far from Utah.
