First Battle's Over

The California Supreme Court overturned the ban on gay marriage (you can read the brief announcement here or the entire opinion on it here).

Now the really hard work comes. It appears there are enough signatures on a petition to put it to a vote on amending the constitution to ban same-sex marriage. If this passes then the Supreme Count in California will have no choice on any further cases since it is the sole purpose of the court to determine the constitutionality of a law. But for the moment, a little celebration.
