13. Fabulous news! Absolutely fab!

[riderinthestorm]

14. Wow!! Four justices will go down in history as the bigots they are

way too close but so glad it's done!

[m-lekktor]

18. yup that end result made me wince for that reason even though

we won!

[MohRokTah]

19. CJ Roberts actually reading his dissent from the bench.

Yep, if he had his way this would have been another Dred Scot.

[riderinthestorm]

20. Agreed. Exposed again as the small, despicable man that he is nt

[Nye Bevan]

22. Well..... don't forget that President Obama opposed marriage equality until 3 years ago.

I was happy that he evolved, but too bad that 4 justices did not do the same.

[truebluegreen]

26. Or said he did. nt

[Nye Bevan]

27. Certainly, he was either bigoted or a liar.

And being a liar is the more charitable explanation.

[truebluegreen]

28. Yup.

[George II]

24. I think they would have anyway, but this cements their legacy.

[m-lekktor]

15. a good week indeed for SCOTUS rulings!!!

[Xyzse]

16. Pretty happy about this.

Congratulations on a long well fought battle.

Still not over, but it is a great milestone.

[Agschmid]

17. Wow.

The Chief Justice has the principal dissent, which is 31 pages long. Toward the end of it, he says, "If you are among the many Americans--of whatever sexual orientation--who favor expanding same-sex marriage, by all means celebrate today's decision. Celebrate the achievement of a desired goal. Celebrate the opportunity for a new expression of commitment to a partner. Celebrate the availability of new benefits. But do not Celebrate the Constitution. It had nothing to do with it." - See more at: http://live.scotusblog.com/Event/Live_blog_of_opinions__June_26_2015#sthash.d6kJTUge.dpuf

30. So where are the fools who said they would set themselves on fire!

[ladyVet]

35. This is a great day for America!

I'm just weeping tears of joy. I honestly never thought I would live to see the day we elected a black president, nor see equal protection for same-sex marriage.

Now I want a woman president (just not Hillary), an end to wars, and the removal of corporations in our government. That will do for a start.
