With a 33-29 vote in favour of a bill that allowed couples of the same sex to be legally married, Governor Cuomo signed the bill into law. The bill had already been approved in the state's lower house. Same-sex weddings were expected to start within thirty days of the bill being approved.
And I'm assuming that they did.
I agree with the issue on same-sex marriage in that it should be legalised within Australia, and other countries if the people of that country so desire.
I'm not gay. I don't have a billion gay friends who all scream to me the unfairness that is their illegality to get married. I don't intentionally hate those of religion who appear to be the main fighting force against marriage equality. I'm not trying to be cool and join those on the 'cool people' side.
I just think that love should trump everything else.
And really, that's all it should boil down too.
Just love.
