Aside from love being love, this was one of the biggest reasons I wanted to see equality across the country, and now it's happened.
Woohoo! Equality for all!

I haven't been this excited since Marbury v. Madison!
This has been a GREAT week.
I changed my profile pic on Facebook to this:
Then I realized that he's gagging. Oops. I guess he's gagging because he read Scalia's dissent.

This has literally been me, all freakin' day:
Same here.
I was going to say something when I saw it, but I figured you'd see it.I changed my profile pic on Facebook to this:

Also, yes. He's gagging because he had to listen to Scalia give his dissent, the pompous windbag.
I'm also an atheist, and not to start one of "those discussions", but religion has done a lot of harm to the entire world. At least people using religion as an excuse to be really really crappy to each other have done.
Yep you can change your FB profile to a rainbow version with this:

So anyone want to get married? 
Some of the backlash is happening, but it's actually quite comical.. One of my co-workers expressed his disappointment in the ruling (He's a far right wingnut) "Now, there's no place I can go in America without Gays...Guess I'll have to go to Canada.."
Stupid sick little monkey... I guess he doesn't know about Canadian law in that regard..

I told him he could go to the Russian Federation...
He mumbled something about Commies....
It's rather hilarious... A lot of these people now want to leave the USA...
The same people complain about Obamacare yet they are the first ones who want govt. handouts when they need hospital care.
They want to leave the US. OK, BYE! Don't let the door hit ya on the way out.
Erm... How do these people think this works? Now that same sex marriage is legal loads of people decide to turn gay just because they are "allowed" to?
Well, it is possible some closet homosexuals might feel emboldened to come out now, but it is not like they were not gay before anyway.
That's great news!! Congratulations, USA! 
Welcome to America, Supreme Court. The Bay State has been waitin' for ya. 
That being said, I was disappointed in the narrowness of the vote and the hatefulness of the dissent. 1967 was unanimous.

When the anti-marriage laws were struck down here in 2004, my friend Kim, a Lesbian, said, "There goes a lot of people's last excuse."So anyone want to get married?
Good riddance to bad rubbish. America should be for people who believe in American principles.
It's certainly an interesting situation. Most of me thinks that it's dumb that we're just now finally letting this happen. A small part of me is worried about the backlash. 5-4 isn't exactly a sweeping victory. There are still plenty of politicians in office that oppose this kind of thing.
It's a sad thing to say, but I really wonder what the country will be like in 20-30 years after all the old politicians and voters have died off.

It's too much too fast, I tell you!
