Red Mosquito

I wasn't sure we'd get there but man, I've never been more proud of my country and my people than today.
Fuckin buried the no completely
Let it be a lesson to the hardline all over. Fear lies and scare tactics backfire wildly. People aren't stupid.

The no campaign here is a master class in what NOT to do.

And the weather? Suns never shone so bright on Ireland than it is now:)

What a great moment for mankind. Happy for you dime.

Fucking awesome, dime. Happy for you.

This is great for the people of Ireland.

We have Senator David Norris to thank for all this..he sued Ireland in the european court of human rights in 1973 to make homosexuality legal..it took 20 years for Ireland to enact that ruling....
he said this today


and i got to say hello and thank him again today when they write the story of this struggle he'll be up front, in the middle and at the end:)

Count is in. It's official...we nailed it

Well done, Ireland.

dime, it's bothering me that your sticker is upside down in that photo. Could you fix it and retake the photo?

Yeah i just noticed that haha!

Happy for you all today. That's a big brave move and it'll no doubt still end up facing relentless challenges from the knuckle draggers, but you got there. Well done America:)

I'm sure over the next few months we'll hear stories of city and county clerks crossing their arms and refusing to give marriage licenses, and perhaps people getting fired from religious non-profits. We'll hear less and less about pizza places refusing to cater gay weddings (as if that were ever a thing) as the weeks go on, I think.

Those people will likely lose their jobs pretty quickly, so while we'll hear a couple stories, i cant imagine that it will be a large problem.

True equality under the law is not possible as long as someone, somewhere hypothetically won't participate in a gay wedding.

I have a lot less of an issue when a private business owner refuses service than when a government official (county clerk, magistrate) does.

Huckabee's like the antithesis of what I'd want in a politician.
