On December 20th, a federal judge in Utah ruled that the ban on same sex marriage was unconstitutional.  I am sure there is a battle brewing from the states conservative, Mormon population.   However, I know that equality eventually wins out.

From Macklemore and Ryan Lewis – Same Love …

“…..Gay” is synonymous with the lesser
It’s the same hate that’s caused wars from religion
Gender to skin color, the complexion of your pigment
The same fight that led people to walk-outs and sit-ins
It’s human rights for everybody, there is no difference
Live on! And be yourself!
When I was in church they taught me something else
If you preach hate at the service, those words aren’t anointed
That Holy Water that you soak in has been poisoned
When everyone else is more comfortable remaining voiceless
Rather than fighting for humans that have had their rights stolen
I might not be the same but that’s not important
No freedom til we’re equal
Damn right I support it…..
