This past Wednesday I spent the afternoon at the Information Commons cafe on campus to watch the news come out about the Northern California Federal Court ruling on the constitutionality of the ban on same-sex marriage. I couldn't be more pleased by the ruling, but of course the struggle for equality is not over. Though the opportunity to bring the case to the United States Supreme Court is a step in the right direction, a ruling that does not favor same-sex couples will negatively affect the entire nation.
I am not entirely confident that the Court will rule in favor of same-sex marriage, but I certainly looking forward to all of the news reports, interviews, and pundits that are sure to entertain. On Wednesday I watched Rick on CNN compliment his reporter's interview taken at a gay bar in L.A. "Good job. You just asked two people in a gay bar how they feel about gay marriage...Keep up the good work."
