The California Supreme Court handed down a 120 page, 4-3 decision which boils down to this: disallowing same sex marriage does not provide equal protection required by the California Constitution. They also said that granting marriage rights to same sex couples was a better solution than denying marriage to all Californians.

This is a great day for California. It remains to be seen if California will have a great day in November when we vote on a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage.

The dissenting opinion was thinly-veiled bigotry. The three justices who dissented must be embarrassed by the obvious sham that stands as their opinion.

Marriage: Not just heterosexual privilege any more!

I did a little dance a few minutes ago when I saw this ^_^

"The three justices who dissented must be embarrassed by the obvious sham that stands as their opinion."

The problem with those three justices (and the population they represent) is that they feel there is a biblical imperative to restrain the rights of gays everywhere and thus they are simply acting out the will of their deity.

I can't imagine how else they could continue to hold their heads up without the neck strain such ego must induce.

And like leime, I did a little happy dance when I heard the news, too.
