 Hundreds gathered at government center Tuesday for a rally against California's Proposition 8 and the Federal Defense of Marriage Act, both which are the subject of Supreme Court arguments this week. Both Prop 8 and DOMA are controversial laws that preserve the traditional definition of marriage is between a man and a woman. Supporters of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender communities such as Mayor Thomas Menino spoke for equality for all. There are a lot of tough decisions I make every day as Mayor, but supporting marriage equality has always been an easy call for me. It's time to get off the fence and get on the issue and let's tell the Supreme Court, get off the fence, make the right decision today and tomorrow. It's about justice for all our people. Congressman and Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate Ed Markey also supports the repeal of DOMA and the overturning of Proposition 8 in California. As more and more people change their mind, as more and more people become convinced that equality of marriage is the correct position, then we get closer to a day when children will have to look to the history books to find that there ever was such a law as DOMA. There ever was such a time when people felt the case could not be married. Members of the LGBT community are happy with the turnout and have high hopes for the outcome of the cases in the Supreme Court. In my mind, it shouldn't even be a thing. We're all just big monkeys, aren't we? Yes, exactly. We all came from the same place. Yes. One human family. Doesn't matter what we look like or what we sound like or who we love. I think that marriage is a beautiful, wonderful, sacred thing and that it should be an option for anyone in the room. It's a human right. Love is bigger than law. Love is divine. The Supreme Court is expected to rule in June.
