Gay couples can keep getting married in Colorado, even though the state's gay marriage ban is still in effect, a judge ruled Thursday.
The decision added to the national confusion over same-sex marriage, as the judge said a county clerk can continue giving marriage licenses to gay couples despite what the state's attorney general calls "legal chaos" as the issue makes its way to the U.S. Supreme Court.
An hour after the ruling, Denver's clerk said she would join her counterpart in the liberal college town of Boulder in providing marriage licenses to same-sex couples. Pueblo County's clerk said he will begin issuing same-sex marriage licenses Friday morning.

I just want a state to simply say No
On this particular issue, officials are afraid of homosexual activists, or afraid of not being liberal, or afraid of some consequence if they don’t issue same sex marriage licenses. What the law is in any particular place doesn’t matter.
This judge included.
“Couples began trickling into Denver City Hall to tie the knot Thursday afternoon.”
LOL!!
You got to give the reporter credit for a good one liner in the middle of an article.
You're absolutely right. A married gay couple will still be a 'gay couple,' and the judges who facilitate them will still be black robed cockroaches.
I hope that someday soon a governor with cojones will put principles before personal gain and say not just no, but hell no. These black robed tyrants must be stopped.
It isn’t marriage.
I have no more use for the courts - or the “law,” which is just the shifting whim of the elites. I just want the country to break up so we can build something that works in its place.
