DOMA finally put down. Not an end to the battle all together, but a huge step ahead. Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy on the verdict on DOMA. "The federal statute is invalid, for no legitimate purpose overcomes the purpose and effect to disparage and to injure those whom the State, by its marriage laws, sought to protect in personhood and dignity. By seeking to displace this protection and treating those persons as living in marriages less respected than others, the federal statute is in violation of the Fifth Amendment and unconstitutional."
