three cheers for the Massachustts Supreme Courts' ruling of the state's ban on same sex marriage being unconstitutional...no doubt this will stir up even more furor than the recent texas sodemy ruling, but once again the courts are showing that law can sometime triumph over ignorance...while this seems to have stirred up more vocal support for a national law banning same sex marriage, i think that rhetoric is likely to be more prevalent than actual legislation in this direction...it's about time that we as a nation step into the current century and provide the same rights and benefits to all citizens of this nation that the constitution declares should be...discrimination of any type, legal, or otherwise runs contrary to the principles on which our great nation was founded...being persecuted for being different runs against everything we are supposed to stand for, and i for one celebrate every victory in defeating those narrow minded obstacles to equality and justice.
