Reminder
Just because marriage is becoming widely available, do not fool yourselves into thinking you automatically will receive protection from discrimination; Pennsylvannia comes to mind when i make this warning. Since marriage equality was implemented there, there have been several cases of discrimination which is legal. There is a bill giving protections to LGBT peoples going through their system currently that will bring those protections.
In some states we won the war, but are losing the battle. It is ok to marry, but you can be fired from your job or denied housing for doing so, and it is legal. We have another fight looming, hell it's here looking us in the face...the right for everyone to be protected from those who will descriminate because of whom we love. In the meantime, be careful out there if you have no protections...having the right to marry is a wonderful thing, but having a job and a roof over your head is also important. |

Oh happy day!
Today the Ninth District Federal Court of appeals ruled that marriage bans in Nevada and Idaho were indeed unconstitutional!
This ruling also paves the way for Montana, Arizona and Alaska which are part of the Ninth District. Wee hawwwwwww! |

I haven't been reading but I'm sure there are many hateful things circulating out there. I'm currently in Oklahoma and never thought in my lifetime that gay marriage would be legal here. I think of this morning, people were already getting married. I sure hope our republican governor is having a lot of anxiety at this time.. she has it coming for sure! I will probably never get married in this state anyway. I'll save that for when I can go to Vegas and get married by Elvis.
