DOMA unconstitutional?

While the Defense of Marriage Act – that heteronormative and sexist monstrosity that limits marriage and marriage-like unions artificially – might fall soon because the current administration does not support it anymore, it is good to see some judges questioning its constitutionality.

Here is more on the ruling and its implications from the LA Times.
