TIP THE SCALES
New York Allows Same-Sex Marriage, Becoming Largest State to Pass Law
Things like gay marriage are decided on the basis of public opinion. Law has little to do with it. When the time has come for something to change, it changes.
And this could/is the case with New York's restoration of the rights of gay people around marriage.
California could have been the tipper but it let the Mormons get in the way. Sorry to say.
Now, New York gets the go ahead.
And, just in time for Stonewall.
This has been a long time coming. It is about rights, not marriage.
The Stonewall riots were about rights. Gay marriage is about rights.
The fight goes on.
