It's official: Gays can get married!

As I'm sure y'all have heard that the SCOTUS ruled in favor for marriage equality across all 50 states, including those, like Texas, that have a constitutional ban on gay marriage. Texas Attorney General issued a call - actually a warning - to county clerks to not issue any gay marriage licenses until he gives them the okay. Well, to thumb their liberal nose to Paxton, Travis County began issuing out licenses today. This ruling doesn't affect me one bit, but philosophically speaking it was discriminatory to allow M-F to marry while denying M-M or F-F the same right.

What do y'all think?

While I have some reputation as a jokester, I have to play this one straight (in every possible way)...

I'd like to congratulate my gay and lesbian friends on their hard-fought, well-deserved victory today. It is truly long overdue.

Welcome to the possibilities of marital bliss!

So sayeth the married guy hanging out on the hooker board...
Truly fantastic news! Finally!

I personally do not believe in marriage but totally support their right to get fucked over like the rest of us if they chose to.

Should've been done a long time ago. I have yet to hear one GOOD argument for not allowing them to marry.

It's unfortunate that so much effort, hatred and divisiveness should have led this to the steps of the Supreme Court. I always believed in Civil Unions but apparently I'm ignorant on the significance of it being a "marriage". Oh well......

I'm a little bit ambivalent about the decision myself, but...

I really LOVE how much it pisses off certain assholes.
