CT Supreme Court legalizes same-sex marriage

CT became the third state to do this, after MA and CA. I haven't had a chance to read the decision as of yet.

For those who are interested:

"...because the institution of marriage carries with it a status and significance that the newly created classification of civil unions does not
embody, the segregation of heterosexual and homosexual couples into separate institutions constitutes a cognizable harm."

Go CT Supreme Court...separate but equal is not equal!
