FROM BLACK CROWN INITIATE:
A great day, for sure! Congrats America, you are acting like less of an asshole!
FROM CULT OF LUNA:
The United states is just one country and there is still much more to do for the LGBT-community world wide. But a fight won is a fight won and since the US (whether you like it or not) has a big influence on the western culture yesterdays ruling of the supreme court is worth celebrating.
FROM TENGGER CAVALRY:
Not gay, not interest in man, but you know what, people shouldn't live under the shadow that other people shit on your life when you have no intention to offend other and you just feel something in your heart. If you want to prove you are a REAL man, get on horse, drink and ride with us

FROM SOUTHERN POVERTY LAW CENTER:
History made!
Supreme Court says same-sex couples have right to marry in all 50 states.
FROM HRC: Supreme Court says same-sex couples have right to marry in all 50 states.
LOVE WON: In a historic ruling, the Supreme Court has decided IN FAVOR of marriage equality in Obergefell v. Hodges. Marriage equality will soon be a reality in all 50 states!

It shouldn't have taken the U.S. this long to allow same sex marriage but it's a giant step forward that they did. Love is love.

" This morning the Supreme Court voted 5-4 in favor of same-sex marriage. So many Americans have believed this to be an inherent right for so long. #RBR is glad that the law has finally caught up.

After today’s sweeping ruling by the Supreme Court of the United States, striking down bans on marriage equality in all 50 states, HRC called on state officials to act with all deliberate speed to remove remaining obstacles to marriage equality.

We won! In a historic ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that bans on marriage equality are unconstitutional. Marriage equality is the law of the land and LGBT couples in every corner of the country will soon have the opportunity to marry in their home states!
At this moment, I'm standing outside of the Supreme Court with Jim Obergefell and thousands of other HRC supporters in the midst of an awe-inspiring, joyous celebration. Today is a true testament to decades of hard work paying off — and I hope you will join in the celebration wherever you are.
Raise a toast, then join us in public celebration. First, add your name to a commemorative HRC logo that includes YOUR NAME along with other HRC members' names that will be instantly downloadable. Then, make it your profile image. That way, you can show the world that you stood on the right side of history.
In addition, if you are out celebrating, please take pictures and send them to us using the hashtag #LoveWins. HRC will be retweeting and reposting your photos all day and night so we can show the world that together, we made history!
Think about it — decades from now, children in schools will learn Obergefell v. Hodges as one of the most important equal rights cases ever before the Supreme Court. And, you were a part of it!
Today's ruling makes it perfectly clear that there is no legal or moral justification for continuing to stand in the path of marriage equality. Couples from Michigan to Texas to North Dakota shouldn't have to wait even a moment longer to be treated equally under the law.
I am calling upon state officials across the country to act swiftly to ensure that every obstacle to obtaining a marriage license is removed as quickly as possible so loving same-sex couples don't have to wait any longer.
Thank you for helping HRC change hearts and minds all over the world. This victory wouldn't have been possible without you.
Thanks so much,
It shouldn't have taken the U.S. this long to allow same sex marriage but it's a giant step forward that they did. Love is love.

FROM MICHAEL MOORE:
It was one of those weeks, this past week. A week in which we witnessed profound history being made. A week when a large chunk was taken out of the wall of hate that criss-crosses this country, a nation founded on genocide and built on the backs of slaves. A people who pride themselves on being ignorant, and thus are easily manipulated with fear by those in power. We know the routine, we've tallied up the score.
But now...
There is massive change in the air. While angry white men stew and wonder what happened to their roost, the young, the women, the working poor, the people of color have forged an intense political bond. Having raised their voices higher, having suddenly been filled more with a sense of hope than one of despair, this alliance is now poised to catapult further. Even in a month of unspeakable tragedy in the birthplace of the Civil War, the race war that one young man who was inspired by the politics of hate had hoped to ignite saw his sick dream backfire into a (nonviolent) war against racists. Blacks and whites have held hands in Charleston. Wal-mart and NASCAR have eliminated the Confederate flag. Two republicans on the Supreme Court have voted to support the vision of the black man who lives in a white house down the street. That wall of hate, devoid of any healthy foundation, has begun to crumble. It's a new America that is fighting its way out of the cocoon. On Thursday the Census Bureau announced that, for the first time ever, there are more millennials than baby boomers in the Untied States -- and, for the first time, there are now more children under 5 who are of color than those who are white. The paradigm has shifted; all we had to do was stay active, stay engaged, refrain from hate and then watch the decrepit right-wing ideology wither and fall off its mysoginist, homophobic, white-privileged vine. It is a New America, but it is not a free America - yet. Free of corporate control, free of Citizens United, free of income inequality, free of an ongoing environmental catastrophe, free of Jeb Bush, free of profit-making health insurance companies, free of a privatized prison system, free of a failed war on drugs, free of the scourge of capitalism.

No, we're not free yet. But it's the closest we've ever been.
I'm ready for Week Two. How 'bout you? What else can we make happen before America's 239th birthday this coming Saturday?
