A PS To The Case Against 8

Ted Olsen and David Boiles went on to challenge West Virginia’s ban on same sex-marriage and that battle ended when the Supreme Court refused to hear and six others petitions, challenging bans. So October 6th 2014 became one of the most significant days in the history of the marriage-equality movement when an additional 11 States got to legalize same sex marriage.

Just five years after Olsen and Boiles started their fight against Prop 8, the number of states permitting couples of the same gender to marry has exploded from three to 32.

Two-thirds of Americans now live in states that allow gay marriage. What the USA still needs is the definitive ruling from the Supreme Court that same-sex marriage is a constitutional right … but as we all know, even when right is on our side, the Law moves in its own mysterious way.
