Discussion: Federal Judge Strikes Down Indiana Gay Marriage Ban

Discussion for article #224346

One by one, every unconstitutional law designed to strip the LGBT community of its civil right to marry is being struck down.

This makes it more likely that the Supremes will have to rule on marriage equality in the next term.

“It was not immediately clear”

The AP must have a keyboard macro for that phrase. Almost every AP article contains it.

Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don’t criticize
What you can’t understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is rapidly agin’
Please get out of the new one if you can’t lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin’

I live in Indianapolis, and this is absolutely seismic.

Once again, time is the bigot’s worst enemy. I look forward to 10 years from now when we all look back and wonder why something so obvious and reflective of human dignity even had to be debated in the first place.

The Utah ban on marriage equality has also just been struck down.

I wonder if Judge Young trolled Scalia in his ruling? The I-Star article doesn’t say.

Oooooooooh, the TP must be tied up in knots right now They lose McDaniel last night, and then lose Utah AND Indiana on same-sex marriage today. I will definitely have to check out Savage and Levin tonight to hear the new degree of foaming insanity.

It really doesn’t matter. The fact that we assume that happened must be enough to fry Nino’s hairline.

I didn’t know anyone had challenged Indiana’s ban, so this comes as a huge, welcome surprise. I just assumed my home state would be the last one to be dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century.

This is a fantastic turn of events.

Sing it: AND ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST
ANOTHER ONE GONE, AND ANOTHER ONE GONE!

Love it!

Hopefully, Antonin got a good shout out in the decision!

ROTFLMAO!

Oh Scally’
Thank you and f*ck you very much!

Yeah, but they’re scattering brain cell for square millimeters around!
