Judge Moreno remarks

"Today’s ruling, “is not just a defeat for same-sex couples, but for any minority group that seeks the protection of the equal protection clause of the California Constitution”."

Fr. Geoff Farrow goes on to explain the remarks made by the one judge who voted to overrule prop 8.
"The words of Justice Moreno “The [state supreme court] majority’s holding is not just a defeat for same-sex couples, but for any minority group that seeks the protection of the equal protection clause of the California Constitution” will most probably be lost on the vast majority of this state’s citizens."
We really need to be careful when allowing a small majority of voters taking away our other civil rights.
