Excellent news. My jaw about hit the floor when I saw Utah on the list of affected states. The whining and pearl-clutching is going to be fucking UNBEARABLE.

shit you want whining and pearl-clutching? Texas Senator Ted Cruz wants to introduce a constitutional amendment banning the lifting of gay marrigae bans.

Ugh, Ted Cruz. Can't we just launch him into the sun already?

[layweed]

If only we could do that to all Texas conservatives.

Over here in Virginia, doing a dance. I love the idea that no matter who I end up with, I could marry them. ♥

Yay! Finally coming into the 21st century some more! People finally getting the same rights as other human beings! Yay! (Homophobes are so gross. Take that.)

I was happy to read about Missouri, but this is phenomenal! My home state of Kansas may be able to break out of its backwards Republican choke hold and bring us up to 30 states, wow!!! Equality FTW!
