Snippet from featured sfgate.com article:Gary Young, 41, stood outside a store along Castro Street, waiting for his partner to finish shopping. Young wore a black T-shirt reading "For Worse. " The words captured the sentiment along the street.
"I turned on the news first thing at 10 a.m.," Young said. "I anticipated the court would say what it did about Newsom, but that they might let the marriages stand. I am disappointed, but the bigger picture is it has opened the eyes of people around the country who saw the happiness this brought."
He and Steve Zink, 58, are registered domestic partners. They decided to hold off getting married until it was clearer whether the same-sex marriages would be upheld.
"It's still a very unsettled issue," Zink said. "I see today in the context of the bigger picture to decide whether the current law is unconstitutional."
So she misquoted some things. And as I still tell Steve, I won't marry him until he unpacks his boxes!
I met Steve at The Edge and then we got a slice at Marcello's. Then we caught Muni to Van Ness and walked from there to The Eagle.
