Gay Marriage Wins at SCOTUS, Summer Sun Tries to Kill Everyone

Gay marriage won big at the Supreme Court today, but Washington, D.C.’s summer heat took second. Little more than an hour after the court released two landmark gay rights opinions, there were arguably more reporters trolling the plaza outside for interviews than demonstrators left to talk to. We got asked for comment three times before we even got across 1st Street. Yes, given the heat, we were dressed like Midwestern tourists, but still… you know it’s bad when the Repent or Perish guy is getting most of the action.
