"You may say that I’m a dreamer..."

Yeah, well fuck you.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed the state's marriage equality bill hours after it passed the Republican-controlled Senate on Friday night, making it the sixth state in the nation to legalize same-sex marriage.

I stand by my naive stance that we'll just keep chugging forward, "progressively". Of course, there will be setbacks. So what?

I couldn't remember the author's name so I didn't mention it yesterday, but I was reminded of this piece by Tim Wise written back during the Teapocolypse of 2010 in regards to societal progression: http://www.timwise.org/2010/11/an-open-letter-to-the-white-right-on-the-occasion-of-your-recent-successful-temper-tantrum/

It's pretty harsh, but you can't really argue that he's wrong.
