236: DOMA is struck down

I don't even know what words to use to express how happy I am with the supreme court decision to strike down the Defense Of Marriage Act. I do realize that there are still many steps that need to be taken and that this battle is not over as there are still way too many states that do not recognize gay marriages, but it is such a HUGE step in the right direction. It makes me SO so happy. Nobody should be judged for who they love. Nobody should be discriminated against because of who they love. It should not matter who we love, it should only matter how we love. I'm thankful that this country is maybe starting to become one that agrees with that.
