The Connecticut border, where hordes of maritally minded same-sex couples from New York are pouring across into towns like Greenwich and Stamford to get hitched, according to several recent newspaper reports. “Connecticut Border Town Is Same-Sex Marriage Haven” declares Newsday, making it sound a little like a refugee camp.
The Connecticut Post adds, “Aside from New York, same-sex couples from as far away as Texas, Nevada, Colorado and California have married in Greenwich.”
Rumor has it the California Supreme Court will rule on Prop 8 later today. Will they expand the territory of equality, or continue to force their own citizens to travel in search of it?
