California Upholds Right to Same-Sex Marriage

According to this article, California overturned two state laws denying marriages to same-sex couples, on the grounds that it constitutes sexual discrimination. Kudos to California for calling a spade a spade. The next hurdle will be to prevent people from changing the state's constitution to allow that kind of sexual discrimination.

Yeh, when I first heard they had banned it, I was dumbfounded. It's California!! They're usually the most OPEN and ACCEPTING state ever!

So I was very relieved to read about this yesterday. :)
