PHOTOS: Prop. 8 opponents celebrate during San Francisco rally
On the heels of yesterday’s ruling from a federal judge that California’s Proposition 8 is unconstitutional, hundreds took to the streets in San Francisco to celebrate. Participants gathered in the early evening and marched down one side of Market Street from the Castro district to City Hall, led by a festooned flatbed truck playing music.
When the crowd reached its destination, several politicians and gay rights activists spoke, including San Francisco District Attorney Kamala Harris, City Attorney Dennis Herrera and Assessor-Recorder Phil Ting. The crowd thinned out shortly after 8 p.m.

Gays have just as much marital rights as a heterosexual person. They can marry anyone of the opposite sex they choose, just as I can. I cannot marry anyone of the same sex as myself either. So where are the unequal rights?
