You're right, the political arena was flooded with anti-gay political activity, and the gay community has merely responded. That surely happened, good call.

I'm not arguing gay people should have stayed silent. Fight for what they believe in, etc. But to assert that they're not driving this dispute is blatantly laughable.

Why was the case in court, Shiner?

Because gay Californians wanted to include themselves under the "marriage" label, and the electorate disagreed with their position.
