Progressives Americans Should Celebrate NJ Court Decision

[La Lioness Priyanka]

Its a human rights victory

A victory over bigotry.

It's one more step in a progressive direction for this country.

Its another break away from the hatred perpetuated by this government for the last 6 years.

Isn't this what we stand for as a party and as an ideology?

[Richard Steele]

1. We are, we are!

"Equal Protection Under the Law"- what a crazy liberal notion! :party:

8. We can only hope.

On its face, it looks like the Mass decision, where the legislature has to come up with some equality in its rules.

I'd call it a stay of execution for now. Let's see what they come up with.

At least it is a step in the right direction. I don't think of this as an "ideological" issue. I like to think of it as a "rational" way to foster equality. Ideology is for the fundies.

I've already posted that I wish the decision was a bit more firm, but the effect will be the same. :party:

15. I am proud to be from NJ today...

I am proud to live in a state that believes in equal civil rights for all of it's citizens.

17. I Was Proud As Well When I Read The Decision Yesterday.

It would've really bothered me if NJ had become like some gay-hating state. I was very pleased to see the outcome.
