Well, apparently it has been decided that outlawing gay marriage would be UNCONSTITUTIONAL. That is a MAJOR step. Because if something's unconstitutional...well, it ain't gonna make it through! So it looks pretty promising that Cali will forevermore offer gay marriage as an option. There are, however, many protests, especially in my county (the most close-minded county in the state) where the marriage office (crap, can't remember the real name of it) has refused to do any marriages now--they only give out licenses. So it's going to be a bitter fight to the end...but it looks like Cali will allow gay marriage because of our rights! YAY! GO SUPREME/SUPERIOR (crap, forgot the right name AGAIN...I'm so forgetful right now) COURT! :eusa_clap (!) :eusa_clap (!) :eusa_clap
Awesome. That sounds miserable, being in such a close minded town. What are your parents' feelings on it?
yay! go california! =D but that sucks that your county is protesting it... I don't think many people here care too much...
Hmm, You'd think this would be on the news o.o But it isn't... *shrug* Eh, good thing for me if I ever find that special someone XD
My mom and dad are pissed off at everyone here who is closed-minded And it's really funny because they don't even know I'm gay! Everyone we know is for it, but everyone else is opposed...we don't know that many people But I think it will eventually work out.
I wonder if my uncle and his boyfriend (who have been together for more than 10 years...) will get married... (they live in california about 2 hours from me)
I'm curious to know what county you live in, because sometimes I think mine is the most closed minded in the state. :lol:
Not near LA, that's for sure. I'm in the valley, with all the smoke from the fires upstate filling my lungs. *cough*
Woo, Cali! I'm from Chico, and I think it's pretty open-minded. Maybe because it's a college town. I'm so glad to be coming back for a visit in a couple of weeks. I'm tired of teh oppressionz.
Of course not giving people equal rights is unconstitutional. Hooray california! But boo to the pissed off bigots.
Good for California! As one of the largest populated states, I'm sure the other states will all be following. It will eventually make it to the Supreme Court and most states that don't recognize gay marriage will pretty much be "forced" to do so. Just my little opinion.
