So, for those of you who don't follow these things, gay marriage is now legal in the state of Massachusetts ^^ So, because I needed to see this first hand, I took my bike down to City Hall, only getting slightly lost along the way. Things turned out to be surprisingly quiet and organized. Police barriers had been set up on either side of the main entrance, with one side for each side of the issue. Naturally, our side had tons of signs taped to the barriers, and a few people with tables and flyers and food and flowers and stuff, and the other side...had one lone man. With a sign that read "Marriage has been and will always be a union between one man and one women.", which is far too long for a sign. He was temporarily joined by two Catholic schoolgirls, who mostly just hung around. Apparently that was just about the most people they got all day protesting. I was joined by a bunch of really nice kids from one of the local private schools (Hello, queenydramaking!), who were all really nice, and we talked, and handed out flowers and gave hugs to the couples that came - we missed most of the morning rush, but there was still a slow trickle. I ended up being the last one to leave, after giving a couple from Rhode Island their slice of cake. All and all, very enjoyable. I unfortunately forgot to bring my camera, so I'll just have to hope that someone else who did have on supplies photos ^^
