Judge Overturns Gay Ban

A California ban on same-sex marriages has been declared unconstitutional. Federal judge Vaughn Walker has ruled the ban violates due process and equal protection rights. The issue is expected to go to the U.S. Supreme Court.



Gender Defender

The U. S. Constitution's
Being sited once more
As the proof in the pudding
That opened the door
For folks to get married
Even if the same sex.
Though it's true that the issue,
To some, is complex.

They're checking the founders
From colonial days,
To find any weddings
That included two gays.
