California's Gay Marriage Ban

Has been struck down. Prop 8 has been repealed because it violates the equal protection rights of the citizens of California. The judge ruling in the case found that the law had no legitimate reason to treat gay people differently than straight and lessens gay people's dignity. You go Judge Reinhardt. The New York Times wrote a great article about the ruling which you can check out fully here.


So this means that we will probably get an appeal again and will possibly get a show down in front of the Supreme Court. Bringing the equal rights of gay marriage to biggest legal stage in all the land. I'm ready to see what some of the best law minds have to say on the subject of equal marriage rights for all.
