a sad day…
i DO understand the decision on a lot of different levels, allowing a city or state official to interpret the law as they see fit is never a wise choice. suddenly mayors all over the nation are making BIG decisions on things as they decide that they WANT things to be. think about some of the mayors we have across the nation, this could be a BAD thing. imagine, if you will, back in the day in Houston if Louie Welch had that kind of power … most of us would not have survived to read or write this!
still – makes me sad. i wish there had been a way for them to decide that those 4,000 could have stayed married. what a great legacy that would have been for this struggle, what a great show of strength and support that would have been to all of us that have been denied what should have always been ours all along. i think mayor Newsom did a GOOD thing – a thing that should have lasted.
one day though … one day.
