Love beats bigotry: supreme court rules marriage as a right


Love beats bigotry, at least according to the supreme court ruling today. The ruling was a historic moment in the gay rights movement. The divisive laws in states like Tennessee have been overruled by this decision. The evangelical Christian majority is already crying foul. It's this backwards narrative they have that by removing their ability to oppress people is somehow “oppressive”. However, let us not allow them to bring down the joy this ruling will bring to the people who want nothing more than the freedom to love. The union of two people in marriage is the ultimate expression of love they can share, and at least for now the evangelical bigotry can't stop them.
