NY Says Yes to Human Rights

The New York State Senate voted last night to legalize same-sex marriage. Gov. Andrew Cuomo is ready to sign the bill, which has already passed the Assembly, and NY will become the largest state in the union to grant same-sex couples the equal rights they deserve.

While terrible things keep happening, we need to celebrate the good stuff. I wish my little brother Seth was alive to see this. I wish a lot of people were. But we are, and should give a yell and a hoot and holler that basic human rights are obtainable no matter what hateful freaks do.

I'm very proud of my native state today. Good job, New York. Can't wait to see what Jon Stewart does with this!

Now, on to destroy the "Defense of Marriage Act"...
