So watching ABC nightly news..announding "it will now be very hard to overturn the SC

decision to end DOMA". And I'm thinking of yesterday and how easily the court gutted the VRA. And thinking about how one woman has to stand in a room full of men to filibuster a bill for 13 fucking hours to gut the provision of legal abortions in the state of Texas.

Its my sincere hope that the people who have fought long and hard for equality for gays who want to marry, will realize that this is a never ending battle. You will never be done.

I truly do not want to see more disappointment among people who are just asking to run their own lives free of the restraints that a minority would impose based on Christian beliefs.
