Prop. 8: The 9th Circuit Ruling

Same-sex marriage advocates carry signs during a demonstration outside of the Federal Building on June 13, 2011 in San Francisco.
The federal 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that Proposition 8, California's same-sex marriage ban, is unconstitutional. The court found that Prop. 8 violates the equal protection clause under the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. We discuss the ruling, which will likely be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
