Truer words have never been spoken…
Writing for the (4-3) majority opinion in the California supreme court decision on same-sex marriage, Chief Justice Ronald M. George had this to say
“Although the understanding of marriage as limited to a union of a man and a woman is undeniably the predominant one, if we have learned anything from the significant evolution in the prevailing societal views and official policies toward members of minority races and toward women over the past half-century, it is that even the most familiar and generally accepted of social practices and traditions often mask an unfairness and inequality that frequently is not recognized or appreciated by those not directly harmed by those practices or traditions.”
Lovely.
