California Supreme Court overturns gay marriage ban

Hopefully the fundies will fail to get their Amendment through in November, but at least until then, go gay marriage.

I wonder if the amendment would even pass legal muster after this decision.

It'll be interesting to see how long banning recognition of poly marriages survives after this. It would be the next logical extension: if banning marriage based on one distinction like sexual orientation is illegal, can banning it based on other distinctions like number of partners hold up for long? The precedent has been set.

Eventually this'll all probably lead to getting government out of the business of recognition of marriages at all; it'll just be too messy a business, with too much litigation involved.
