The day of our arrival the Supreme Court was hearing the case of prohibition law against gay marriages in California today. California was the 10th US state to legalize gay marriages, but after 18 000 marriages a voters referendum decided against, which resulted in a law forbidding same sex marriage. Strangely a non-religious state can decide that religious feelings trump rights to legally secure your family and publicly confirm your love if you are gay. It is expected that the supreme court will confirm that a state can not "take back" the rights given to people thus re-instating the right of gay marriages in California. Meanwhile the debate runs with high temperature in the papers.
