Texas gay marriage ban ruled unconstitutional

The parade continues.   A federal district court has ruled that the Texas law that bans same-sex marriage is unconstitutional.

The ruling will be stayed pending appeal.  It follows similar rulings by federal judges in Utah, Oklahoma, and Virginia.   So far, since the U. S. Supreme Court ruling on DOMA, no federal judge has upheld a state law banning gay marriage.   Each one adds more weight for SCOTUS to make a definitive ruling, sooner rather than later.
