    Iowa Supreme Court says same-sex marriage ban is unconstitutional

    In 1998 the Iowa State Constitution defined marriage as between one man and one woman, thus not allowing gay marriage. An amendment was also in the works to reaffirm this. However, the Supreme Court has affirmed the district court decision on the issue which overturned the ban based on the an equal protection violation of state constitution's bill of rights. So, gay marriage is allowed in Iowa. Yay, Iowa!

    Yes!!! Maybe now they won't venture up to Canada to express their freedoms and rights. Unfortunately, now the lazy gay people will find hard working gay people that have health coverage through work and be a greater burden on society. Health benefits and tax breaks... that's what marriage is all about.

      How the hell was Iowa able to ratify laws that run contrary to the US Constitution's Bill of Rights in the first place? They need to stop treating the Bill of Rights as a suggestion--- its mandatory, and any statesmen who promotes ideas contrary to them should be thoroughly investigated.
