Ireland_YES_Vote

"We're the first country in the world to enshrine marriage equality in our constitution and do so by popular mandate. That makes us a beacon, a light to the rest of the world, of liberty and equality. So it's a very proud day to be Irish," said Leo Varadkar, a Cabinet minister who came out as gay at the start of a government-led effort to amend Ireland's conservative Catholic constitution.

RBG_Officiates_Same_Sex_Marriage

Wearing her black robe with her signature white lace collar, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg presided over the marriage of Michael Kahn, the longtime artistic director of the Shakespeare Theater Company in Washington, and Charles Mitchem, who works at an architecture firm in New York. The gilded setting was elegant: Anderson House in the Embassy Row neighborhood, the headquarters in Washington of the Society of the Cincinnati, a club for the descendants of the French and American soldiers who fought in the Revolutionary War.

A gay teen near Las Vegas, Nevada received an adorable "promposal" from his straight best friend. Anthony Martinez had wanted--badly--to go with a guy to prom and took to Twitter to make his desire known. It was Anthony's tweet that caught his straight best friend Jacob Lescenski's attention.

Jacob decided he would ask Anthony to prom and do it in a big way. He had his friends help make a giant poster for Anthony that read, "you're hella gay, i'm hella str8, but you're like my brother, so be my d8?"

We can't know yet how the Supreme Court will rule on same-sex marriage in June of 2015, but we already do know this: The decision won't be based on a dispassionate reading of the Constitution. The 5-4 (or perhaps 6-3) ruling will be a reflection of the political orientation, values, and visceral feelings of each justice; as their "questions" (actually pronouncements) showed during the April 28, 2015 arguements session, every justice except perhaps Anthony Kennedy came into this case with his or her mind made up.
