Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Basically, it will go back to things the way they stood before Perry.

Which means Prop. 8 is unconstitutional? (Sorry to be such a moron.)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

That's fantastic. I declare this to be a day of high drama.

Which means Prop. 8 is unconstitutional?

The lower court's decision striking it down stands. Not the same as the Supremes saying it is unconstitutional. So, outcome limited to CA.

Okay so the Prop 8 decision only effects California right?

Does the DOMA decision effect state laws defining marriage as only between 1 man and 1 woman?

No. States can still pass those laws at this point. All *legal* marriages will now be recognized by federal law, but states still define what is legal.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

askye is me. What's the best sources for this people are using?

ETA: So if a couple gets married in a state where it is legal and moves to another state, where it is not, are they legally married, with the rights and privileges recognized and protected?

So, are the marriages that took place previously in CA now legal again?
