Amy Howe: There is a "careful consideration" standard: In determining whether a law is motivated by improper animus or purpose, discriminations of an unusual character especially require careful consideration. DOMA cannot survive under these principles.

Amy Howe: There is language suggesting that the Court will dismiss Prop 8 on standing.
Page 4 of hte Roberts dissent, talking about Prop 8: "We hold today that we lack jurisdiction to consider it in the particular context of Hollingsworth v. Perry."

I still don't get it; has "gay" meant anything except "needs marriage" in American discourse for the last 5 years?
Long-partnered but not married friend in NJ, on FB:
I'm happy that a discriminatory statute was struck down. I still think civil marriage is, in itself, discriminatory in privileging people simply for normalizing their lives in a government-approved manner, but I suppose that's an argument for another time.

One of my gay friends, in posting his celebration of the ruling, also lamented the fact that apparently Floridians can't read, and apparently he was a part of this FB group that for some reason thought that this made gay marriage legal and recognized in all states, so they started posting plans to all assemble at City Hall and get married today.
Oops!
Really happy at this ruling though. also love that Pelosi blew off the "what do you think of Bachmann's comments" question she got.

it's funny to see which FB friends went to a rally/celebration in front of the Stonewall Inn, and try to conjure what a future spouse of theirs might be like. (genetically engineered supermen?)
