California Proposition 8 Upheld
posted 27 May 2009
"So, how was your week?"
Oh, you know... I had a tough deadline, a couple of boring meetings, and the supreme court upheld that a plurality of voters could deny me my civil rights in the country that calls itself the Land of the Free... the usual.
So fuck you, voters of California. The rest of the country is rapidly falling into line, and by 2010 it'll be you and fucking Mississippi looking like hateful throwbacks.

It should also be noted that the decision only restricts the government from using the word 'marriage' in some cases - so it might still be possible to extend the role of civil unions (and allow opposite-sex couples to get them) and remove 'marriage' from the parlance of government entirely.
