Colorado’s same-sex marriage ban ruled unconstitutional, but ruling stayed

DENVER — A judge in Adams County has ruled that Colorado’s ban on same-sex marriage violates the U.S. Constitution’s equal protection clause, agreeing with 23 federal courts that have so far come to the same conclusion on same-sex marriage bans in other states.
The ruling Wednesday is the first decision on the constitutionality of Colorado’s voter-approved ban on same-sex marriage, which was passed in 2006.
District Judge C. Scott Crabtree ruled that the arguments for keeping the ban, that marriage is about the “protection of families” and “procreation of children”, are “recently fabricated” arguments for the purpose of denying that discrimination is occurring.
“It is merely a pretext for discriminating against same-sex marriages,” Crabtree wrote.

Happy to see this moving so quickly, but rather surprised in the same token. I guess when you wait for so many decades to see equality come to life, it takes you by surprise when it happens like a freight train speeding downhill.
