Reply #48: What's notable

is that this decision was not a 5-4 (or otherwise one-vote) majority, it was a unanimous ruling. Clearly, that is a first in this mighty struggle for freedom and equality.

Still, the only three states that allow equal marriage have done so only by operation of the supreme courts of those states; we still need to see one state affirmatively vote for equality in their legislature, and be signed by the governor (or a governor's veto overturned by a legislature) before we can say definitively that the tide is turning on this issue.
