Why the Louisiana Marriage Ruling Doesn’t Bother Me (Much)

Our love is bigger than Louisiana
The winning streak is over. I’ve lost count of how many district court wins there have been for marriage equality since the Windsor decision last June. Let’s just call it a bunch. That bunch of cases includes each of the appeals districts, and in many of those districts, there have been further rulings (including one today) that have called for overturning bans on same-sex marriage.

Judge Martin Feldman is aware that he is running contrary to the stream of opinions, and he certainly is entitled to believe that he is right and all those other judges are wrong. On the other hand, I’ve read the opinion, and this is not one for the ages. Paige Lavender (is that her real name?) writing at Huffington Post offers what she calls The 6 Most F*&%ed Up Parts Of The Louisiana Gay Marriage Ruling.
