More reasons why I am proud to be a citizen of this state: California's top court legalizes gay marriage - Yahoo! News. From today's court ruling:
"In contrast to earlier times, our state now recognizes that an individual's capacity to establish a loving and long-term committed relationship with another person and responsibly to care for and raise children does not depend upon the individual's sexual orientation..."
I have already received one engagement announcement today, from a friend who married her wife in an unofficial ceremony six years ago - now they're going to do it again, but 'legal'. Congratulations Caro and Pam, and to all of my brothers and sisters who now have the right to marry. This is a good day for all of us in California who care about justice for all families.
