2,700 Licenses In Two Days

There's no suggestion that all of these are for same-sex weddings; it is June and lots of people get married around this time, after all. But already the number of licenses issued exceed a traditional week in June. I think we can reasonably aver that at least 2,000 of these are from same-sex couples.

4,000-plus people's lives and loving relationships have been reaffirmed in just a couple days. That's nice.

Meanwhile, Virginia is SCARED OOGABOOGA!!! Actually, random nuts in Virginia are scared, even though their state has already passed a constitutional ban. It's worth remembering that, while this is a great week for California, the struggle for recognition and rights is a long way from being over.
