Same Sex Marriage Legalized in California

Holy crap!

Today is the first day in California that same-sex marriages are legal. Hundreds of gay and lesbian couples made appointments today to secure their marriage licenses.

Massachusetts, which legalized same-sex marriage in 2004 has a residency requirement to obtain a marriage license. California does not!

I'm thinking this is going to be like the great migration West; gays and lesbians are going to be moving West to tie the knot.

While there are plenty of protesters, CNN reports that supporters are out-numbering the protesters.

I am so thrilled about this. It is about time.
