To whom can anyone appeal? You can't get any higher.

It was so moving to hear the beautiful voices singing our national anthem on the SC steps after the ruling was announced.

 

Choosing to honor our country in their moment of joy for the equality they were just given was a wonderful thing to see.

Lion, beautifully stated.

 

In future generations, our children and grandchildren and great grand children will wonder why this was even an issue and why people had to fight for this basic right of equality and happiness.

 

I know history will be on the side of the 5 justices that voted for this today

Lion,

I enjoyed hearing from those who discussed their children and how this legally impacts them as a family.

 

Yes, hearing the national anthem sung was moving.

Jim Obergefell's comments were touching as well.  A lovely tribute to his late husband.

    I have always thought -  live and let live. Why appeal...  there are so many more issues to be debated/considered for the future.
