Fellow planner, Louis Zhao, forwarded this information straight from off the press, the California State Supreme Court ban's gay marriage, but according to the article those who got married will be allowed to remain married. What's going on in California?? Our economy is in the dump...so is this going to create a scramble for gay couples to get married before the rule goes into effect to try and stimulate the wedding market?
Truly, that issue is minor compared to the bigger issues that the ruling brings forward, and that's the issue of equality. Several of my post, specifically the "unity" post makes a case for a coalition among those disadvantaged communities to come together and fight for the cause of gaining equality. People need to understand, that once that rights of one man are taken, that only opens up the gateway for the rights of other people to be taken away.
Today, the Supreme Court has taken away the right of people to get married. What will be next?
