Scalia's right, but this has been coming a long time, ever since the first "gay-marriage" </off cant> case in 1981 in Hawaii, then called Baehr vs. Lewin. Hawaii shut that case down ("mooted" it) by passing a state law addressing the issues involved and repudiating the gay idea of "marriage". Now Hawaii can't do that.
In 2001 the leading homolitigator, Evan Wolfson of Lambda Legal, gave a long interview to a gay e-zine about their strategy, which was always to get a Fourteenth Amendment case before SCOTUS and cry "equal protection of the laws", and wait for a homer liberal to write them their decision and stuff their crap down the throats of the 50 States.
Point is, it was always their strategy to get Anthony Kennedy to give them what they wanted, from the Supreme Court bench.
