Comment from George Takei on the Arkansas ruling on same sex marriages...

A judge in Arkansas just ruled that state's ban on same sex marriages unconstitutional. While the decision no doubt will be appealed, it was the final paragraph of the Order, referencing Loving v. Virginia which ended all state bans on interracial marriage in 1964, that moved me to tears.

He is a good guy, and an excellent Judge. Never doubted that he would do the right thing.

Her civil right was finally recognized after years of denial.

Otherwise, concur.
