Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick signed a bill allowing out-of-state gay couples to marry in the Bay State. The bill repeals a 95-year statute that prevented out-of-state same sex marriages (originally drafted in response to interracial marriage) and in his speech, he said, "In Massachusetts, equal means equal...by repealing this law, we have affirmed the democratic principal that all people come before their government as equals." Back in May, NY Governor David Paterson ordered state agencies must recognize same sex marriages.

What a cheap imitation, deca2. Everyone knows I don't care what people want to do with their lives. If two homosexuals want to get married, I don't care. It's their life.
you guys are ridiculous.
Wow, Deca has an imitator already?
Deca2, I'm so proud to be abnormal. Unmarried and unable to get a date for some reason, but still totally abnormal.
And if you'd rather die, you know, that's fine.
well, with paterson's ruling back in may, ny gays have been able to marry in mass. since may, so this new law really doesn't change anything for new yorkers
And here I thought the Full Faith and Credit Clause of 1786 was non-binding. Silly me.
sadpanda: Paterson's ruling said that people married in other states would be considered married in NY. But MA did not allow out-of-state marriages, so NYers had to go to California.
can we trade all our queers to them for manny?
What happened to State rights? I guess it's cool to go around the process when it fits an agenda you agree with? Lame.
