Alaska will begin accepting marriage applications from same-sex couples Monday after a federal judge struck down the state's ban on gay marriage the nation's first such prohibition approved by voters.
The decision late Sunday afternoon caught many people off guard. No rallies were immediately planned, but some plaintiffs celebrated over drinks at an Anchorage bar.
Matthew Hamby, who with his husband, Christopher Shelden, was one of five couples to sue, was "just having drinks with friends, enjoying it."

Gotta know whats up with that 1.7% sliver of the population 24/7!
Just because a government says they’re married doesn’t mean I will ever view them that way. A piece of paper doesn’t make them married.
they’re not married, they never will be ,and they can pretend to play families all they want.
As for these homosexuals and their supporters, well it shows how they get themselves into positions of power and influence. teachers, elected officials , Govt media etc
The State Controlled Ubama “Media”! (SCUM). Sexual deviancy all of the time!
How many states actually voted in this deathstyle by its people? I think there has been only one, correct? Almost all of this is by court order!
It does not mean shit. Two men or two women together does not a marriage make. What it is, is one more step toward destruction.
Liberal judges are overriding the will of the people with Backdoor Marriage!
There have been a few states who voted for homosexual marriage.
As I recall, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Illinois state legislatures voted for this.
Voters in Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, and Washington state voted for homosexual marriage.
Not sure if any other states voted for this via the legislative process.
But you are right. The big majority of states in which homosexual marriage is allowed, is due to being imposed by the courts.
So now the liberal line will be, look, over 30 states, a big majority of the country now supports homosexual marriage. But what they will not say is how many of those states voted against it but had it imposed by a court order.
The “evolution” of marriage:
1)two humans: one man and one woman
2)two humans
3)two or more humans
4)two or more humans and _______
Marriage is a religious rite. The government should butt out and thus deny the sodomites if their ability to attack the Church.
.... and a backdoor consummation.
There, fixed it.
exactly, they can think they are married, but deep down they must surely know they are not.
Man-moose, man-bear, man-salmon, man-son, woman-daughter, man-inan-inanimate object “marriages”...as much nonsense as homosexual “marriage.” In every country that has embraced homo “marriage,” natural marriage has been cheapened and devalued, with rates plummeting.
Only natural marriage forms the necessary, basic, economic, and moral building block of a civil society capable of self governance.
But that’s the point of the Communists: Destroy the primary social unit of free people and make them dependent on the whims of the ruling class.
And now, Gay Marriage In Alaska!
Just another day in paradise...
I’m not a big follower of the gay marriage issue. But over the weekend I had commented that the issue was winning based mainly on the activist courts. Not on voter referendum. I was told I was wrong - and “several years behind the news.” Or something. But here’s another case where I was closer to correct.
"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life.
If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."
