Well, not really. Part of this decision hinges on the fact that California had previously granted the right of marriage to homosexuals and then removed that right with Prop 8. This judge ruled that it is unconstitutional to remove a right that has been previously granted.

AFAIK, polygamy hasn’t been granted as a right in California. (I’m just guessing on that one.)

Utter and complete non-sense. Gay Marriage was already forbidden in the state constitution when it was struck down by the California supreme court. Prop 8 again made marriage between a man and a woman. NO LAW WAS EVER PASSED MAKING GAY MARRIAGE LEGAL. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT!

Careful, you’re making too much sense.

This judge is a “couples only” bigot of the worst sort. People for truly open and free marriage should reject this decision as garbage ~ which they won’t.
