choire:

“We have nothing to fear from love and commitment.”

“[This vote] is about the fairness of people who are of the right age, of sound mind, who choose to live together, share everything together, and want to be able to have the protections that government grants those of us who have the privilege of marriage and treat it so cavalierly in our society.”

I just stood up and clapped for this.  I am so happy that my country isn’t fighting this fight anymore, not the way it is being so ridiculously fought in the U.S.

So well put, and I am upset at the results.  KEEP FIGHTING!
