My Thoughts are with New Jersey Today

Tomorrow at 3PM, the New Jersey Supreme Court will issue its ruling on Lewis v. Harris, the same-sex marriage case brought by seven gay and lesbian couples. My sources all predict a victory for gay marriage advocates, which would make New Jersey the second state, after Massachusetts, to legalize gay marriage. They point to the court’s liberal record (including its ruling in the Boy Scouts case), as well as the timing of the announcement. It will be the last decision released before Chief Justice Judith Poritz retires, so the expectation is that it will be a momentous one. (source)

This ruling will happen TODAY at 3:00p.m. At 3:00 today, I’ll be going to some private place, and giving a moment of silence for hope -- the hope that another small part of our nation will give us a sliver of equality.
