Re: California overturns ban on same-sex marriage
The California Supreme Court is set to review prop 8 next March.

Opponents of the proposition are saying that "the measure was actually a constitutional revision, instead of a more limited amendment. A revision of the state Constitution can be placed before the voters only by a two-thirds vote of the Legislature or a constitutional convention".

Supporters are saying that "it merely amended the constitution by restoring a traditional definition of marriage", and that they'll "mount a recall of any justice who votes to overturn the measure".

Glad to see the threats have already begun. Guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
