It was a Federal court. Presumably this strike down ALL states Gay Marriage laws.

No it doesn’t. This affects only Prop 8 in California.

If upheld I think it will affect all states. This judge found a new "right" in the Constitution.

To determine whether a right is fundamental under the Due Process Clause, the court inquires into whether the right is rooted “in our Nation’s history, legal traditions, and practices.” Glucksberg, 521 US at 710.

Here, because the right to marry is fundamental, the court looks to the evidence presented at trial to determine: (1) the history, tradition and practice of marriage in the United States; and (2) whether plaintiffs seek to exercise their right to marry or seek to exercise some other right.

I can only assume it will be appealed. I don’t much care though. We have much bigger problems than this. And there is no human resolution. It just needs to play out.

Hence my tag line.
