Iowa Court Says Gay Marriage Ban Is Unconstitutional
Of course, the H8ers will mobilize their religious drones and phone trees, and try to pass Prop H8 constitutional amendment there, too. The petty theocrats that prevailed (for now) in California will set their sights on Iowa, and start trying to write discrimination into that state's constitution, too.
The fact that people feel they need to dictate how others live and love still saddens me immensely.

I have never understood why nobody has contested the ban on gay marriage as a violation of the First Amendment.
It clearly constitutes an establishment of religion.
