Discussion: Judge Strikes Down Colorado Gay Marriage Ban, Stays Ruling

Discussion for article #225472

I’m shocked to say this, but the news isn’t quite as exciting as it would have been a year ago. What a difference a year makes. Still happy, but just not as excited.

Didn’t another case there just decide the same thing?
The whole point of the lawsuit was to stop the state from enforcing the ban so that couples in CO don’t have to wait through an entire year of appeals, and to that extent, it looks like the plaintiffs failed. They do go home with a nice consolation prize of having the ban re-declared unconstitutional.

That was the State Supreme court. This is the Federal court

Ah, thanks!

I am excited and I am happy.

Also, “We are the champions” is apropos.

Stick a fork in the ban, it’s done.
