Courts are the last bastion of reason in the United States

The problem is that nobody has really considered that gay marriage and civil rights for all is an inevitability. We can drag it out all we want, but with the media spinning homosexuality in a glorified and accepted light generations from now when we are all old we will achieve the victory for the homosexual population that they deserve right now. Ultimately though, the courts will probably have little to do with approving of gay rights because they are not as fully committed to justice as one would assume. The supreme court is made up of appointed officials who can serve for life. This allows the anti-gay agenda to remain an influence in the courts for a literal lifetime. While I don't believe that we should be telling the LGBTQ community to have patience because they deserve better I think that ultimately patience will win the war.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
