In a 5 to 4 vote it could not have been more close.

With five conservatives on the court, I'm shocked. :shock:

I'm surprised this took so long. Same sex marriage has been a right for people here in Massachusetts for 11 years

Yea, there were three separate terrorist attacks that got pushed aside by the US news outlets. What happened in France was a disgrace and shows if we do nothing, they get worse. Need to obliterate them at their homefront.

Pretty big news. I always thought this would stay a state by state legal battle till like, 202X..now its legal across the whole country by right. I never really been for or against it because you know, it doesn't affect me at all, but I'm happy about it especially if it leads to more adoptions. Lots of kids out there need a family.

? :lol:

Ironic that today I saw bumper sticker on a car while driving around at work that said "im so gay I cant even drive straight". For real though alot of my LBGT friends (mostly my bi/lesbian female friends) were going crazy, I actually know alot of them and alot of my other straight friends who supported this were congratulating everyone and I couldnt be happier for them. Good day and progress made on this front, im glad to see many of my friends so excited and I hope they dont have to feel like they are different or not normal any longer, long way coming to this and im glad it finally happened!
