IIRC 38 states had it legalized, 38! We were well on our way to complete acceptance. But because one state hadn't yet done it somebody ran to the supreme court to get them in trouble. The result was a good deal of backlash. Bigots got riled up and pushed back all over, even in states that were already legalized. Remember that one courthouse bitch that became a figurehead when she wouldn't process gay marriage licenses? Fucking yikes. States starting passing laws protecting businesses that refused to service gays. Politicians campaigned on the promise to fight the ruling. Antigay rallies popped up all over. The list goes on. It wasn't all smiles and sunshine for gay acceptance because the feds said it was ok. If they stayed out of it and allowed the rest of the states to naturally adopt it, there would have be much less "the gays are taking over" hysteria and more acceptance. --- My friends call me Vee.
