And I have so much respect for those that understand the importance of this decision both legally and emotionally

n/t

seeing that old coulpe get married does my heart good along w/the judge's
skipping her vacation to go marry people all day long is nice too.

I wonder who the republicans will find to hate on now? .... my money is on the
Muslims and that Obama can't stop ISIS.

But I agree that Muslims are probably next. Although I think it might be the elderly.

Yes, it's heartwarming and inspiring that it took 54 years and they never gave up!

.... think about brown and black people in private. However the demographics*
are brutal to them now and in the future. A huge % of people under 30 support
"the gays" and see hating on them as sign #1 for being an asshole. As for the
haters over the next 20 years many will have to take their "dirt naps."

BTW for having Gay and Lesbian neighbors for years I never got why anybody
would fall for the bull shit lie about the threat from the gays.

BTW part 2 ..... I have come to think that many of the people who are haters
tend to have their own issues too.



* that is why they have cheat, flip votes, gerrymander districts, and have a
dirty media push their talking points ..... how many times do they have to have
Lindsey Graham or John McCain on those useless Sunday Morning shows?

Dramatically with this ruling. People who have been too afraid will start coming out.

Yes, they'll have a harder time being bigots in public, thankfully. But, unfortunately, it won't stop many. I am ready for an increase in attacks for a while too.

But we're getting there!

.... in the population should be a constant that is governed by genetics.

And yes we might have a spike in attacks and vile speech on the GLBT
community now just like all the bigots came out after Obama was elected
in 2008.

BTW how could anybody hate on my marym625? And if they do I would like
a word or two w/them.

I am going to our 40 year plus local Comfest today and it should be awesome ....
something I learned a long time ago .... gays know how to party.

How sweet! Well, here on DU you would have to talk with more than a few. But that's OK. It's not my problem, it's their's.

I honestly believe that all the studies are wrong. Because they really don't have a genetics, yet, nailed down on this and that I believe there are some people that just haven't been completely truthful in studies, with friends and family and even with themselves. I believe that the actual percentage is closer to 20% Especially when you factor in bi and pan.

I hope you have a beautiful, wonderful time!



And yes, we do know how to party!

It is a wonderful thing.

Thank you for posting it.

It's just so inspiring. It's so wonderful that we've all come together in such happiness. I know it won't last too long, but for now, I'm thrilled

And good on her for waiving the 72-hour waiting period.

That will be a vacation day that goes down in history as the best vacation day ever!

how anyone could be against this.

Same here! Or how anyone ever was.

Wonderful judge. See, everyone in the south isn't bad.

Never thought they all were. But these stories sure help everyone know that

Congratulations to the entire United States .... on our way to putting one more instance of bigotry behind us!

Any county official who declines to issue a marriage license should face discipline. Our public servants have a duty to uphold the law and perform their jobs in the public interest. If they want to practice religion, they should quit their county clerk jobs and become full time ministers.

But wouldn't you be happy to do this? A dream come true for me!

They've waited long enough.

I am thrilled for you marym and all the people this will directly impact. I understand
there is more to forge against bigotry against gay people..but it is good to celebrate
too. I like the way this judge is celebrating it.

It's all such good stuff! 54 years!

Happy happy joy joy!

There are some really good ones out there!
