    I'm mostly just curious what this means for those 19 or so states where it was still illegal.

    Unless they all caved one by one, I mean. I don't know if that's what happened or if there was just some big singular federal ruling that overrides all the individual states' decisions.

    SCOTUS declared that the bans (in all of the states that had them) are unconstitutional, therefor they are no longer legally enforceable laws. Well, other than if you talk to Texas' attorney general supposedly giving state workers the "okay" to deny marriage licenses to any gay applicants (THATS NOT HOW IT WORKS, PAXTON YOU SHITHEAD). He is basically trying to be the George Wallace of this generation and he deserves the infamy he will get.

    Oh, neat. So, does this mean every unconstitutional law no longer applies? Because I'd be very happy about that.

    (Spoiler:) Forgive me if this sounds insensitive, but I didn't even know gay people were mentioned in the Constitution. Thanks for not teaching me that, grade school/high school/introductory college history courses.
