I was going to wait until tomorrow to update, but this couldn't wait any longer.
WTF @ New York's deciding court. >__> I would make a comment on the thread, but plenty of people have said most of what I would have.

Best comment: "Black robes have covered plenty of cowardice in American legal history but this rates right up there with the Taney court ( Read more... )

"The majority decision was based on the idea that gay couples do not have a demonstrable history of marrying, therefore stopping them from doing so cannot violate their inalienable civil rights."
WTF?
So it's saying, because gays never married before, it's not infringing on their rights to not let them get married? Let's see where we'd be if people still used that logic: oh, right, we'd still have slavery and (more than today xD) religious persecution ("People never could choose their religion before, so let's continue to force our beliefs on them, and kill them if they don't agree with us! Alright!"), and let's not even THINK about women's rights! Pch.

How is the world supposed to make progress (and not just with gay rights, but with EVERYTHING), if we keep this mindset? T____T

Although, some of the comments amused me - birthday present for Dubya, indeed. :P.

(p.s. yeah, front page worked. heh *dumb*)

"At last -- sanity is beginning to make a comeback on the bench. I know this isn't popular, but Gay's have no right or reason to marry. They do not create children therefore they do not create future value in a society -- they are consuming sponges that disrupt the core values of what makes a society work. Glad to see the ruling! If a gay wants to marry, they know what they need to do, find someone of the opposite sex and get married. Life is tough, and there are tough choices to be made." - comment by some idiot who calls him/herself "mossback"

In what world do you call it sane for someone to just marry a person for the hell of it? "You there, on the street corner! You're the opposite gender from me -- Let's get married!"
