A federal judge in San Francisco decided today that gays and lesbians have a constitutional right to marry, striking down Proposition 8, the voter approved ballot measure that banned same-sex unions.
U.S. District Chief Judge Vaughn R. Walker said Proposition 8, passed by voters in November 2008, violated the federal constitutional rights of gays and lesbians to marry the partners of their choice. His ruling is expected to be appealed to the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals and then up to the U.S. Supreme Court.

I was just saying that it wasn't the end of the matter. Anything can happen.

Supreme Court can make it a no-no if they decide to even take the case. They could just say fuck it and let it stand. In fact, I am 100% sure they won't even take the case and they will let the ruling stand.
