This is truly historical. Though a few other countries in the EU have legal gay civil marriages, this is the very first one where people actually voted on the issue and it passed. It was a change in the Irish Constitution. Check out the map in the video: all counties except for one, in the middle of the country, voted yes. LOL Chalk up one for gay rights and the Catholic Church got a black eye that day. I am happy!
