OMG AMERICA WE DID IT!!! So Ireland beat us to it, which is sad, but AT LONG LAST our government has done the right thing. Redneck states will no longer be able to deny people the right to marry based on their backwards beliefs. This is not a theocracy. Marriage rights are NOT an exclusive privilege to be determined by the state and the rights of citizens may not be governed by religious rules. The fact that this was even a question in the first place is a travesty but I'm so glad the day's finally here. I'm not even gay/bi/trans myself and I just about burst into tears, been waiting so long for this on behalf of my LGBT friends! This is the first time in a long time I'm feeling DAMN PROUD OF THIS COUNTRY.
