Status: offline 		I cringe at the hateful things this will trigger.    Yet- why deny someone happiness?  No one would want me, so in a way it isnt relevant.

PA doesnt have a state amendment yet. We just had a committee in state government debating it for state ballot.  Ballot initiatives are rare in PA.

i dont know why some view this as a threat.   society benefits when people settle down. 

Im happy for them.  Maybe it will stick.  A fed amendment is unlikely.

Status: offline 		lol, and you can bet the evangelists would tie that right in there wouldn't they?  wrath of god and all that crap.  this should have been the way it was all along.  when people are committed to each other in what they believe will be a lifelong relationship, they should be allowed to have that recognized by all of society.  nobody marries planning to divorce; if you want the freedom to leave, shack up.  let the rest of us, no matter what our preferences, have the committment we want.

Now hopefully the other states will follow suit.  Only time will tell.

I love the quote from the justices  "responsibly to care for and raise children does not depend upon the individual's sexual orientation."

Nevertheless, I wonder how many people marry as a proclamation of love and commitment, as opposed to tax advantages, health insurance advantages, or other perceived advantages.

Nothing wrong with that either... sometimes they get married for a myriad of reasons, it's all in the realm of the personal, thank goodness.

Status: offline 		People no matter straight gay or bi will get married for their own reasons, people will cast aspersions about their reasons for getting married, as they always have with straight couples. Hopefully that is something they can get thru together. But it really has nothing to do with anyone!!!

They're behind a few other states.
Now, if they can get their act together about enforcing people's 2nd amendment rights in that state maybe...
